Halloween 2009

Halloween has come and gone (whew). Another year down, not quite as dramatic as last year. Katie was sick from Friday on, but went trick or treating anyway (only to come home and puke later). Jr hated his costume up until the day of Halloween and then he was in full character. He called all his candy "treaters". He totally liked the spooky houses in Roxanne's neighborhood and was quick to catch on to Trick or Treating. I, unfortunately, have had to eat most of his candy while he sleeps as to keep the sugar high to a minimum.

Halloween....

Halloween is over and November has just begun. Halloween was pretty crappy day for me. Here is the rundown:

• Woke up - late
• Baby woke up with a fever (guess those antibiotics are NOT working AGAIN)
• Katie woke up mad...cuz it was LATE!
• Ran around like a crazed maniac in half of my Halloween costume trying to get all the stuff together for school, babysitter, and trick-or-treating.
• Left half dressed, NO makeup...mad.
• Katie left her coat, had to stop mid driveway to run back (swearing) to get it.
• Finally get on the road to school.
• 8:38am Katie crying because she is late
• Mommy turns around to yell at her....HITS A GARBAGE CAN (yippee)
• Katie crying because mom broke her mirror
• 8:40am arrive at school...jump out to attach wings and horns.
• JR. crying in the car because I am outside and Katie is crying.
• Sit back in the car and.....split the BUTT out of my tights (you have got to be kidding me)
• Rush to the babysitter to find her no where in sight, probably at the school for the parade (hmmm wondered why there were so many cars)
• Unload the baby with her husband who is going over to the parade.
• Rush across the street to my mother's to apply makeup
• Drive like a manic to Harmon's for dry ice (cauldron), crushed ice (office party), new tights, and headache medicine.
• Mom calls...she is taking sick baby back to the Dr.
• 12:00 pm Office party....did not win AGAIN!! Why is it that a guy in tights will always trump a cute costume??
• 12:30 Mom calls...baby had to have two shots of antibiotics
• 1:30 Babysitter calls...Katie is missing.
• 1:45...Katie found.
• 3:00 Office trick-or-treating
• 4:30 start month-end closing....as everyone else leaves.
• 6:00...finally done.
• Pick up sick baby
• Home to ignore the door for hours

Why did I get out of bed? Will post pictures later
