Happy Halloween

A few pictures from the last few days. First, of Olivia's school carnival. The theme was Noah's Ark and all of the kiddos dressed as their favorite animal. Olivia had me running back and forth to Hobby Lobby until she finally decided to be a pig. (Her other suggestion was a zebra, yeah, not sure how I would have pulled that one off. Maybe next year!) They had bounce houses, snow cones, face painting, and games. She had a blast and was willing to tell me all about it.

What We Have Been Up To

Well we sold our house and have to be out by October 27th, so the last several days have been filled with packing boxes and trips to our new storage unit. Hopefully we will be able to start construction on the new house sometime in November/ December. Olivia is what I would consider officially potty trained, Jake is VERY close to crawling and is sporting two new bottom teeth! Olivia is getting slightly possessive of her things with Jakes new ability to get around.

Some funny things to note:

When picking Olivia up at school the other day she put her hand on a classmates chest and very sternly said, "No, No Kendall, that's my mama." (Apparently she is possessive of her mama, too.) She also had a potty accident the other day and I heard Greg say, "Uh oh, did we have an accident?" I hear Olivia quickly respond with "Nope, it wasn't me!"

Lastly, Olivia yelling, "I want my basketball hoot!" (after Greg took some of the larger toys to storage for the time being.)
