Cweepy

Kate and Liam had a great Halloween. Kate loved her Snow Princess outfit. Nick, however, is ready to sit on the porch with a big stick after I heard one of the boys at school tell Kate "you look beautful, Kate, like Queen Amadala from Star Wars". Now, being compared to Natalie Portman is one heck of a compliment, but none of us were prepared for it at age four!!! Also, a Mom at preschool told me this week that her son came home from school and told her he wanted to marry Kate. Sheesh.

Anyway, all that aside, Halloween was pretty wonderful! Liam was a puppy and I could not stop snuggling him in his outfit. He had a great time and for some reason called every pumpkin that he saw a "bottom". I would correct him and he would just repeat "Bottom!" So on every porch that we trick-or-treated at, Kate would hold her bag and politely say "Trick or Treat" while Liam would widly point to any visible pumpkin or jack-o-lantern and scream at the top of his lungs "BOTTOM!!!!!!" It was so funny. Kate told me that walking around trick-or-treating in the dark was "so cweepy". Nevertheless, she and Liam seemed to have an awful lot of fun - - with the exception of when we were on our way home and Kate tripped on an uneven sidewalk and skinned her knee which was met with much drama and wailing. She later told me that if the sidewalk had not been so "cweepy" maybe she would not have tripped. Here are some pics from Halloween!
