lack of title

So October has gone by fairly fast. Last week we had our ward party and super saturday, they call it simple Saturday only because they are in some serious denial. It seemed that last week all I did was Run and I am not so fast. Go here, go there, go everywhere. So here is to a new week.

This week should be less hectic although today since 3 I have ran to 2 banks, 2 visiting teaching visits and am currently waiting for my Alison's Pantry truck to show up and then we are going to Grandma's for dinner and to carve pumpkins. Tomorrow I think I will sleep til noon and let the kids mother themselves. Right!

For our ward party, I dressed up in the 80's. I had the hottest costume. It consisted of leopard print tights worn under my poorly tried acid wash jeans with slits cut down the front of them, hot pink legwarmers and a sweat band which I made myself. I pink necklace, jelly bracelets and hoop earrings courtesy of DI, don't worry I sanitized, an off the shoulder sweatshirt with a knot like thing, blue eyeshadow, glossy lips, and of course crimped side ponytail. I was smoking. But I didn't win the tickets. Oh well, better luck next year. I really think it was a flashback for most people. When my hair gets crimped it multiplies a lot. Anyway, it was a lot of fun. I don't have pictures but you can probably imagine what it would look like.

We have Halloween on Saturday, Brian's birthday on Sunday and hopefully can avoid the flu for at least a week.

Good Things:
1. Wanting to crawl into my heated bed
2. Hot chocolate
3. Fun things like dressing up every now and again.

Hope everyone has a wonderful day and a Happy Halloween.

ARGH!

Is that how you spell that? Jaxon is 14 months old learned to climb today. I am not very happy. I never believed in baby proofing the house. Well, I have never had a Jaxon before. Reagan got into stuff but it was the measuring cups and the lids to my containers. And occasionally the sugar and the flour. That has been moved. Jaxon plays in the toilet and the paper, pulls everything out from under the bathroom cabinet, throws things in the toilet and tub. He gets out the pan lids and everything off the lazy susan, opens the drawer beneath the oven and stands in it, climbs onto the couches, rocking chair and today he discovered he can crawl onto Reagan's bed, the table chairs and once on the chairs onto the table and once on is King of the house. He was really pleased with himself...until he fell off. But he did not learn quickly. He is a determined child and got right back up there. I was hoping I had a few more months before the madness began but it is here. And...I have gone mad myself I think. Hopefully the crib is not next and he can live there for a long more time. So tomorrow while Reagan is at school I will be helping Ashlee while she gets a massage and going to Wally's to invest in some hopefully childproof cupboard locks. I am not sure what to do about the table. Hopefully I don't end up making trips to the dreaded ER. I have already been there once with him and I didn't like it and I don't want to do it again. The trip there last time was unrelated. Anyway, I hope you all had a great day.

Good things
1. Bedtime (my favorite time of day)
2. Jaxon did get up and climb again I guess
3. I am really struggling for three things today is just a 2 good thing day and that is pushing it.
