Halloween is upon us!

We had an unexpected ER trip yesterday when Callum spiked a fever at dark o'thirty. :(

Thankfully, his counts are ok, so after some fluids, Tylenol, and antibiotics, we got to go home. He was actually supposed to have his LP yesterday though, so that has been postponed to Monday, assuming he'll be better by then.

But, he spiked another couple of fevers later in the afternoon and had some vomiting, poor guy. It was a long night as he had trouble sleeping due to this incessant cough that's started up.

Today is the school Halloween parade and class parties. It's a big event and I actually signed up to volunteer at both boys' parties - but because Callum is under the weather, I'm keeping him home instead. He was a little sad to miss the parade and party, but he feels so crappy he didn't object too strongly (tells you how bad he's feeling I guess!).

Even though I knew he'd probably miss the parade based on how things were going yesterday, I cranked out his costume last night just to be safe. Since he's not appearing at school, we decided to do a few pics at home together instead.

Logan was all about creating these scenes and acting them out by the way. :) Love my boys.

Happy Halloween to all!

Crunch time!

I suddenly realized I only have 3 nights left to make the boys' costumes happen this year! Yikes!!

Unpacking

What to do when you can't find any of the wrapping paper or gift bags in the towers of boxes stacked everywhere?

Take a few pieces of the MOUNTAIN of packing paper, combine with slave labor, and voila! Homemade wrapping paper! 😂😂

(I'm going to be unpacking for weeks!)

Moving Day!

The movers showed up right on time and got straight to work. Roughly 2 hours later and the bulk of our house is now empty!!

The boys have moved from room to room to hang out on couches or beds until I kick them out to let the movers pack up. We're now down to a single trampoline to play on in the living room. ;-)

Bittersweet

We're both happy and sad to be leaving this home - the only home either boy has known and grown up in so far! So, I guess this move is a pretty big deal.

I think it'll be a little bittersweet when we officially move out tomorrow - but we are also looking forward to making many new memories in our new home, and can't wait. :)

Like a boss.

Callum didn't like that the barista couldn't say his name. So when she asked him how to spell it, he said just let me write it. And took over like a boss. 😂😂
