"Where's my 'peter??"

Which, in Isabella speech, means"Where's my computer?" I was on mine and Elisabeth was on hers and she wanted to have one of her own :)

On Thursday we went to the State High parade which was lots of fun. It was Isabella's first parade and she was a tad shy about running out to grab candy. Between Elisabeth and I, we managed to get a bag full. Now I won't have to buy any for the trick-or-treaters:)

On Friday afternoon, Elisabeth's 6th grade had their first Fun Afternoon-all of the 6th graders from her school stay afterward and have pizza, soda, snacks and play games, etc. I decided to bring Isabella with me because I hadn't seen her all day and wouldn't get to see her until after 5. Unfortunately for Elisabeth, Isabella was a HUGE hit. At one point, one of the boys we know had her in his arms playing with her and there were about 20 girls around him. What I didn't share with that group of girls was that 10 years ago when he and Elisabeth were under a year, they had a bath together :)

Today we spent the day cleaning (who am I kidding?? I cleaned, Todd was on the computer). Todd took Elisabeth to soccer while I stayed home with Bella, who has a cold. I took the girls to get their haircut. The hairdresser, who is Vietnamese, introduced the kids to this jelly fruit. Because of this, Bella sat very still in the chair! WHEW! We decided to let her bangs grow for awhile. I will see if I can stand it. Elisabeth got her typical 'do' and looks adorable.

Tomorrow we are going to church and decorate for Halloween:)
