Halloween and other fun stuff.

We had a pretty good Halloween. My mom bought Logan a monkey costume that was so cute. I didn't want to take him trick-or-treating so we went to a nursing home with one of my friends and her kids and took treats to the residents. The old people LOVED the kids and their costumes and the kids did really good- there were no meltdowns until we left the nursing home. Then afterward Logan and I took treats to my mom and Hal's mom.

We are gearing up for the holiday season around here. I am so proud of myself I have Logan's presents bought for his stocking and I have decided what I am getting everyone else. Now I just have to go and get it :). I decided to get a part time job in the evenings to help out with Holiday expenses. So I have been applying like crazy. I went out the other night to apply at the grocery store I used to work at. It looks pretty promising. When I left Logan and Hal were eating dinner, when I got back about 30 minutes later this is what I came home to:

I was kinda in a bad mood, but after I saw that- who can help but smile.

Selling Avon is going pretty well (Heather's commercial insert here: if you wanna buy from me go to www.youravon.com/heatherwheatley). I really enjoy it, but I am a horrible sales person so I only have like three or four customers- thank goodness for moms and grandmas.

Hal is doing good. He really likes his new job. The only thing that stinks is he's working 10-11 hours a day Monday-Friday and usually a few of Hours on Saturday. So they keep him really busy. He's also started filling in on a Volleyball team on Monday nights. I haven't gotten to watch him play yet- I've been working at church on Monday nights for about a month.

Kailea is doing well. Not much to report on her. I took her to see High School Musical 3 the weekend it came out. It was the first time we had "Girl time" since Logan was born and we both had a lot of fun. She's like any other 8 year old girl- she loves those movies. I think she was a hick for halloween- we haven't seen her since then so I am not sure. She is supposed to visit this weekend so we should have a lot of fun.

Logan is getting so big. He now has his own room and has his own twin size bed. He usually will go to sleep in his bed and sometime in the night come get in bed with us. I told myself when we put him in his own bed that if that happened I would walk him back to his room, but usually I don't remember him getting in bed with us. If he gets too much bigger we will have to kick daddy out of the bed :). He LOVES Veggie Tales. He has a stuffed Larry that he carries around everywhere and if I pull out a Veggies Tales DVD case he goes crazy. He loves to dance to the theme song. I also like them- the earlier I can get him involved in Bible Stories the better.

Other than that not much else going on. I just have one more picture to post. No real story to it except I think it's cute and my dad loves doo-rags so I took the picture for him.
