When is it to early too celebrate Halloween?




The past few weeks have flown by very fast. I had one week where I pretty much locked myself in my house and we watched Meet me in St. Louis and Enchanted more times than a sane person should-but you all know I am not a normal person. It was just one of those weeks when you don't really want to talk to anyone- i have emerged from that week thankfully. Maya is loving school-she asked me to pick her up early one day last week and so I did, and when i got there she said "Mom, I don't want to go yet, I haven't finished my project and I want to go to P.E." I learned my lesson. I guess I just want to do whatever it takes for her to love school, and if she wants to come home early one day than I'll do that. Nicole is going through this phase that is very hard to explain. She pretty much wants to spend 24 hours a day in her princess nighty dresses. She has worn them so much that they are pretty much disinigrating and they are nasty because she will wear them even if they are dirty or wet. When I call her name she sometimes tells me "I'm not Nicole mom, I'm Christine"-(from Phantom of the Opera) She is also requesting to be Christine for Halloween and Maya is wanting to be "A witch with warts and blood coming out of her nose and poop on her shoes" oh, and hair coming out of the nose also- I don't really know what to say about this except for don't let your kids look at scary things unless you want them to say things like this. They aren't scared at all-they just love scary things. We worked on the spook house in the picture for about four days. We had such a blast. We went to Michaels and had too much fun looking at all of the Halloween decorations-we had a 50% off coupon and had to get this kit for 10 bucks. Today we put glow in the dark tatoos on our heads and had a serious party. My question- "Is it to early to start making Halloween decorations?" ABSOLUTLEY NOT! If I ruled the world I would start at least a month early preparing for holidays! I know James totally freaks out from like September to January because he knows we are going to spend money for crafts-sorry James. Anyway, I hope I have made some of you come out of the closet with your love for celebrating Halloween a month and a half before it happens. Oh yeah, just found a hilarious blog site at http://www.seriouslysoblessed.blogspot.com/. My friend Jamie Henrie showed it to me. It is basically a blog that mocks the typical mormom mom blog. It is hilarious.

Jamie and Nicole




I had to post a few pictures of Jamie and Nicole. We pretty much hang out all day together now that Maya is in Kindergarten.
