halloween was lots of fun. we went to the Family Fall Festival at Aunt N's. M had lots of fun being dressed up...as a witch! She was adorable, and I appologize, but I have no pics. I completely forgot to bring my camera. Hopefully I can steal some from Aunt N. M had a skirt with fiber optics on it that lit up different colors, and she wore glow sticks as well. She had a cute witch hat, orange tights with bats, and a black shirt that says "my magic power is being cute." She even won the costume contest and got delicious Choxie chocolates as a prize. The chocolates were really cool actually because they were little cups of chocolate, made out of chocolate, with different flavors of soft chocolate in the middle...like caramel, pistachio, milk choco...etc. CHOCOLATE CHOCOLATE CHOCOLATE!! We are really enjoying them. there is only one left actually.
Oh, and I finally got everything finalized on the Buick my mom sold me, so now it is officially mine, tags and title! woo hoo! and insurance. it feels good to have it all done and be able to drive it, and return Grams and Gramps truck that we've been borrowing...soon...J has to clean it first. All in all it was a good weekend.

Stranger Danger

Ok. So, we've talked to M about strangers a bit, telling her to be safe and what not. A couple of times she brings it up when we say no she can't do something and she says "because there are stangers?" or some such. We haven't talked about it recently, but apparently the message stuck: We were at Wal-Mart, had just finised checking out and J went to use the restroom and M wanted to get a drink from the water fountain -I was still a few steps behind, so M said "Mom will you come a little bit closer?" and I said yes, and she continued "because you wouldn't want a stranger to grab me." I smiled and said "No I wouldn't like that." And she said "You would say 'oh no! someone has taken my child!" At which point I couldn't help but laugh and tell her how much I loved her.

Clearance Puppy

This has been a really crazy weekend. Thursday J got a call from a breeder he had been speaking to 3 or 4 months ago. We were going to go look at a puppy of his (with no real intention of buying) back then, but when we called the breeder said he just sold the last female 2 hours previously. Then on thursday he called to tell J that a buyer backed out last minute and J has first chance at getting her, so Friday we went to see her. She was discounted for us (and b/c she is older now, I think) and much more affordable - and so we brought her home, and her name is Sugar. Sug (shoog) for short. She is very sweet and calm, and listens really well. She is a yellow lab, and for all of you who have read the book or watched the movie - yes, we bought the "clearance puppy"! And actually we stopped at Blockbuster to return some movies and a big Marley & Me poster was in the window and M said :"Is that a picture of Sugar?" - I hope not! Saturday was the last 50 cen...

What a Day.

Last night there was a heck of a thunderstorm, booming and crackling away, which of course causes my dog to freak out. So I put her in a kennel (this one is smaller than her usual one because for one I thought she may feel safer in a more confined space, and for two I figured she couldn't tear it apart like the other one because it gave her less space to move.) and she was actually a little bit better in this kennel. well, at about 3:00 a.m. I Got up to tell her to be quiet, then at 5:30 a.m. I heard a huge crack of thunder that startled J and I awake but Prints was quiet. Suspicious, I went to check on her, and she seemed fine other than that she completely demolished her blanket and reaked of urine (she was so scared she peed.) Then in the morning at about 8:30 Justi and I went to go to the gym, but low and behold I had forgotten to roll up the windows in the view. The seats were soaked, and I mean SOAKED. So we took Justi's car and put a towel on M's car seat. Af...
