We went to our ward Halloween party on Tuesday night. The kids will be wearing different costumes on Halloween, but I still wanted to document these costumes. Madeleine has been super excited about this leotard hand-me-down that I think is from Paul and Jenny's kids, so we decided to have it be part of her costume. I should add that her hand-me-downs from Abbey, Claire, and Emma are very much loved by her because she loves those girls. I threw together a little skirt for her with scraps of fabric and things I had around the house. She was a ballerina, Anna wore Mad's old witch costume, and Henry was Captain Adorable. He had a yellow blanket as a cape, but this was after the party, so the kids had ditched a couple of their costume pieces by the time I got their picture. Madeleine is really into Halloween this year and being spooky. I love that she's getting to be a kid. I also love that Anna absolutely adores Henry. So, this morning the girls were happily coloring on the ottoman in their jammies and I ran upstairs for something and when I came back down Anna was undressed and coloring on her tummy with markers. I got the camera and took a picture because she's just my cute little artist.

Ahhhh! They are so cute! And Madeleine is so big! I can't believe it's been so long since you had her. Time flies! I'm glad you guys are doing so well. And I think a librarian is a fun idea. I love reading while I nurse Xavier as well. I'm glad you have a blog!
So cute-glad you got it going. We had fun this weekend. Why didn't Henry wear that getup? What a cute captain!
