A little bit of Crew...

One day I looked in the shower while Crew was taking a shower and caught him peeing in a cup. Apparently it is something that has been going on on a daily basis. Lovely. Remind me not to put my toothbrush back in it.

I pulled out his elephant costume and he saw the tail in the back and yelled, "Wook mom! There's his wee's!"

For some reason he seems to constantly be mad at his gramsies and tells her on a daily basis to "SHUSH gwams!" or "You be nice, Gwams!"

When he is mad, he will tell us, "I kick you?" And then proceeds to pretend kick you. Or bite you. Either one works for him.

He and Cole have started to baptize each other in the shower every day. Maybe the shower thing is not such a good idea? I am thinking that the baptism thing might be a little sacrilegious.

My favorite is his kisses. He with holds them until you beg and then he proceeds to cover every inch of your face with kisses. AND then he thinks it is funny to wipe his nose all over your shirt and run away giggling like a mad man.

His prayers consist of mumbling for about 10 minutes about mom and dad and silly bands and elephants and really you can't make out any words except for the "AMEN!"



Bottom line. This kid makes us laugh.

Halloween

Here is a little peek at what we did the WEEK of Halloween. (It almost seems a little much sometimes. By Halloween night, I think my kids were sick of dressing up. I take that back. They didn't care... after spray painting Jake's hair four times, I was done.)

Costumes this year were somewhat ridiculous trying to figure them out. Crew wanted to be an elephant. That one was easy. Up until it came in the mail. I think he was afraid of it because when he saw it he would not touch it and started to yell, "No! I be a giraffe!" He was still the elephant. By the time thursday rolled around we had him convinced it was not scary and he is still carrying it around.

Jake is a vampire obviously. Cole wanted to be the bat that he turned into. No such luck. The only bat costume I found in his size was on ebay for over $100. Lame. SO, we spent an hour at the computer trying to come up with a costume. His is my favorite. I think because it fits his personality to a t. He is Max from Where the Wild Things Are.

Jeff and I were Fred and Wilma from the Flinstones.

Between the two parades at school and the ward halloween party and then trick or treating in the rain and the party at Gramsie's and Pa's, we have enough junk food to last into next year! It was another crazy busy week but so much fun!
