Happy Halloween!

Hope you all got your fair share of Ghouls and Goblins this year!! We sure didn't. Although I'm certain it could have been a much worse holiday---I heard it rained in CLE, and even snowed in some other locations???--- it simply didn't feel like a Holiday to us. I suppose this is something we will have to adjust to for a little while.

Audrey looks ridiculously adorbs in her Wonder Woman costume- I'm thrilled to say that as of 8:41pm (CST) I still haven't seen another Wonder Woman costume!!! We love being unique :) Daddy was a gem and only worked a half day so that we could take part in Audrey's Halloween Party at Daycare. I was pretty stoked- super antsy to meet other parents, dare I even say potential friends? WRONG! I love A's teachers- but they totally mis-lead me. We weren't just the only 2 who showed up in costume.....We were the only 2 who showed up. Apparently it's not that big of a shindig. So after 20 awkward minutes, we finally packed A up and left.

Our Apartment complex e-mailed everyone yesterday (yesterday) and informed us they were going to host some Pizza and Goodies in the clubhouse for us neighbors. We decided to hit that up- Auds loved it! She was running around- and running up to everyone. She tried to steal several beverages and countless boxes of candy being left unattended. She snagged her first full sized adult cookie and demolished it! She was quite a riot. We didn't stay too long, not a whole ton of kids- especially not her age.

I'm very happy to report that she just finally is starting to get back to our baby girl tonight :) The other night- when we put her down to nap at 4:00pm? She didn't wake up until 7:16am the following morning! I only brought her to daycare for 1/2 day, when she got home- she went down for another 3 hour nap! The amount of sleep she has been consuming this week has had us really nervous, especially because she's been SO moody when she actually is awake. But this afternoon- she refused a 2nd nap, and was an absolute joy to be around again! YAY!!! I always feel like I should get a merit badge or something when we successfully accomplish yet another barrier with that munchkin of ours. A Badge of honor or something, right?

I have a rather funny story to share. This past Wednesday morning, I discovered my ID was not in its specified location. It is now Friday night- I have turned the apartment and BOTH our cars inside out (several times) in desperate search for it. I very VERY rarely do anything to which my license is needed. I don't get drinks when if we go out to dinner, I am usually not the one to buy any alcohol for the house, and I typically have my receipts when I make a return- so trying to think of the last time I used it has been an absolute nightmare. After clearing through the apartment again tonight, I gave up. I did my research on all the hoops I would have to jump through to avoid having to re-take the driving test to get another license; I had everything mapped out for Monday......

..... then BAM...

... As if hit by lightening- I had a vision of myself handing my ID to a woman at Target. 'There is no way...' I thought to myself- but since I had checked everywhere else, I gave them a call. Sure enough, they've had it.... for TWO WEEKS! How did I manage to not have my license for 2 weeks and have no clue?! My grandmother would be proud though- only about an hour before I had this epiphany, I said a little prayer to St. Anthony; so I really shouldn't be surprised about this discovery. What a putz I am.

On that note- Rob and I are going to try to ignite some Holiday Spirit with a little scary movie; House at the End of the Street.

XOXO
