My alarm clock started squawking at me 45 minutes earlier than I've been used to. A new routine was starting. I had to not only get myself ready and out the door, but Maddux too. God had a plan for us. He knew we were going to need a daycare. Thank you to the Westerman's (Hudson's family) we didn't have to daycare search. We met the perfect lady. Her name is Marianne and I couldn't feel more comfortable dropping Maddux off with her. She runs a small, in home daycare. It's Maddux, Hudson, and Rachel (a little girl who is 18 months old). Yesterday marked day one of this new adventure and it couldn't have gone any better. I dropped the little man off with a giant smile on his face and when I picked him up 9 hours later, he was still smiling. Marianne said he did great. I was so so so happy to hear it. And so so so glad to be picking him up to go home and get ready for the Halloween party!
We ventured over to the Westerman's to hang out and help pass out candy to the trick or treaters. It was a blast, although the boys didn't last long. Here I am with the best looking giraffe I've ever seen...
And might I add, the costume only cost me $4.50! I found it at a consignment shop back in September. Go me.
Daddy carved a Mickey Mouse (Maddux's favorite) pumpkin last weekend and of course we had to bring that with us. Maddux and Mickey...
It was fun passing out candy and seeing all of the costumes. Kids are just so darn cute!
Maddux didn't last long....but he was a good snuggle bug...
Halloween 2011 was a blast. I can't wait to be able to go trick or treating with Maddux in a couple of years (and eat his candy :) ).
And I leave you with this....quite possibly my favorite picture of all time. Remember a few weeks ago when we went to the pumpkin patch? Stephanie captured this picture of our boys being done with the whole taking picture thing.....I love it.
Happy November everyone.
