The adventures of SPIDERMAN-GIRL

 So, Sassy decided out of ALLL of the princesses, fairies, pink, and purple glittered costumes, that she just HAD to be Spiderman. Not, SpiderGIRL... SPIDERMAN. I glitz-ed it up a bit and I think she looked ADORABLE. She had so much fun this year :) Every time she left a house she yelled, MOM lets go get some MORE CANDY!!
 The little Crew minus Jace, he was a little tuckered out :)

We also had to paint our pumpkin like spiderman :)

The spiderman costume is not really "potty friendly" for school, so we improved this morning for the halloween party, She loved that she got to wear her jammies and tutu to school :)

Lots of candy! Lots of friends! Lots of FUN!

Grace Renee Mess.. oh Guess

Whew.. motherhood, mixed with more than full time teaching, throw in a little graduate work, and good lord I am tired. I am going to try and slow my mind down a little since my body is working so hard. I need to take time and enjoy the little things, and the funny things, and my family, to find the GREAT in every day, and be the mother I need to be :) 
Grace was ROUGH on us this weekend, so high energy, bouncing off the walls, never stopped talking... you get it. I found myself on edge very quickly... I have got to slow down and remember she is just 3, and doesn't understand "mommy's busy".

I wanted to take some time to celebrate her little achievements this week.

1. She can do a cartwheel and land on her feet.
She has been working on this since we started cheer and she is SOO proud of herself. She walked into school on Friday and first thing she did was cartwheel for her teacher :)



 2. She is recognizing letters everywhere and we are working on copying letters and words
- She tried her hardest to write "Daddy" on Daddy's birthday card :)
and love... :)


3. She is HILARIOUS... and so beautiful
and by far the reason we want to work so hard :)
