Getting ready for Halloween


We are getting ready for Halloween at our house. I just finished Joshua's costume this week, and if I do say so myself, it looks pretty good! Thanks to my sister-in-law Carrie who encouraged me to make the pirate outfit without a pattern! I used one of Mike's old t-shirts for the pants and some leftover material from a quilt for the shirt. The rest is just felt, and dollar toys!
Andrew gets to be a little devil, which is what Joshua was for his first Halloween. Here we go already with the hand-me-downs!
Joshua and I hung fake spider webs and fake spiders all over our house just in the name of festivity. It looks pretty creepy, but it is amazing what you will do to please a child.
This week we also signed Joshua up for a mini-preschool class being offered at the highschool. It goes for three weeks, and is taught by the highschool students. I think he will really like it.
One more bit of info: we took Andrew to the therapist again yesterday, and his head is getting much much better. It still isn't round, but the rest of his head is finally catching up with the big lumpy side!
