Sunday was trunk-or-treat at our church and Grant had a great time playing all the little games at each trunk. Unfortunately Luke wasn't too happy and so my hands were full and not many pictures were taken. I had ordered Luke's scarecrow costume a couple weeks ago and as of Sunday (the trunk-or-treat) it still hadn't come. So, I had to put him in Grant's old frog costume. He hated it and I ended up taking him out of it half way through.
The afternoon of Halloween we went to a neighborhood party. Grant was more interested in eating all the sweets that were there while all the other little boys were running around. The boy LOVES to eat. He also enjoyed watching the other kids bob for apples. He wasn't too interested in giving it a try himself. I enjoyed meeting some of my neighbors and they all are super nice. We did go trick-or-treating down our street. I think we were the first ones out because I knew Luke wasn't going to last too long since it was getting close to his bed time. Grant loved the trick-or-treating experience and after going to each house he would say, "Mommy, can we go to another house?" Poor little guy is studdering really bad these days and he couldn't get out the words "trick-or-treat" or "thank you." He tried though, bless his heart. I was shocked when he went right up to this ghost. He's seen it for weeks and always says, "That's scary Mommy."
Unfortunately Mike has missed all the festivities but he'll be home tomorrow (hopefully)!!

Hang in there, Amber... looks like we both get our hubbies back tomorrow! I just about had a meltdown over the phone with Michael tonight. This single parenthood thing is simply not for me! The boys' costumes are adorable. Grant looks so big and handsome!
Hey Amber, I found you through Whitney's blog. Your boys are precious and you look wonderful!
The boys look so cute! I love their costumes. Luke sounds a lot like Max, but I've always thought separation anxiety. Some days certainly are worse than others and when people are around he's not real familiar with it's always worse. He can also always seem to sense when I'm about to leave him somewhere and that makes him pretty bad. He likes for me to be in the room with him, even if I'm not holding him and the second i get up and move his eyes are on me and he either fusses or follows me and wants to be held. But...you said you don't seem to think separation anxiety, so I don't know. Max is 14 1/2 mon, but has been this way for quite a while. I hope it gets better for you soon! I totally know the feeling of thinking you are going to lose your mind - I felt that way at Homecoming this weekend w/ Max. Call if you need to vent! Love and miss you!
Amber! Hi! I am peeking at your blog to check in and say hello. I can not believe my eyes! GRANT is such a big boy! Holding hands ah!
Your boys looked so cute in their costumes!! And, you looked beautiful, as usual. I hope your week goes well!
Hey Amber! The boys are so cute! I love Grant's cowboy outfit, E.C. was a cowgirl! They are growing so fast! Miss you!
Hey Amber! I'm glad to see Texas is settling in on you with that cowboy costume! Glad y'all had a fun halloween! Summer
OK, I'm not getting on you because I know you've got two now, but update already. :) J/K...I never commented on this one and just wanted to say that you look fantastic and the boys are precious.
