Let me start with the Dentist’s nightmare!\u00c2\u00a0 Yes, Halloween.\u00c2\u00a0 Last year Mitchell was only two and really didn’t understand what he was doing and Mac got sick and just passed out candy with Daddy.\u00c2\u00a0 This year, Halloween was bitter sweet.\u00c2\u00a0 It was Heathers last day taking care of the boys.\u00c2\u00a0 ON the bright side, she will be able to spend more time with Joey before her new kid pops out!\u00c2\u00a0 Good luck Heather…the boys miss you and wish you all the luck…stay in touch!<\/p>\n

\"Mac<\/a>\"Pumkin<\/a><\/p>\n

For the boys that night, it was mommy on duty and the sun staying up later than past years.\u00c2\u00a0 To start, at 5pm, it was off to a neighborhood party sponsored by the residents of Commonwealth Street.\u00c2\u00a0 Mommy didn’t make it:-(\u00c2\u00a0 Just the three boys and many of our neighborhood friends.\u00c2\u00a0 After a healthy amount of pizza (for daddy), brownies, juice, and lots of playing, it was time to move out for some candy snatching!\u00c2\u00a0 The neighborhood is great…lots of older folks happy to see the transition of the old neighborhood into a thriving family community.\u00c2\u00a0\u00c2\u00a0 Mac and Mitchell had to be continuously restrained to keep them in Daddy’s site.\u00c2\u00a0 They chose to stay with a small group of the neighborhood kids.\u00c2\u00a0 Mac filled his bucket so full, it began to come apart.\u00c2\u00a0 This year, the boys were maniacs and had a blast.\u00c2\u00a0 Mommy stayed home to hand out candy and work!\u00c2\u00a0 \"Arrrghh,<\/a><\/p>\n

Saturday morning was the last day of the current session of swim lessons.\u00c2\u00a0 Both boys are doing really well.\u00c2\u00a0 Mac has started swimming on his own without floats for several strokes with his head underwater.\u00c2\u00a0 He’s really proud.\u00c2\u00a0 And so are Mommy and Daddy.\u00c2\u00a0 For the rest of the weekend it was either Birthday parties (3) or Mac and Mommy at the Botanical Gardens collecting leaves from the different trees.\u00c2\u00a0 One of Mac’s projects…to collect leaves and put them in an album.\u00c2\u00a0 Mac and Mitchell went to the first party Saturday together at the Zoo for Riley who turned 4.\u00c2\u00a0 The second party was for Mitchell’s classmate, Allison.\u00c2\u00a0 It was held at a bowling alley.\u00c2\u00a0 Mitchell had a great time.\u00c2\u00a0 Too bad Mac didn’t join us.\u00c2\u00a0 He would have had a blast.\u00c2\u00a0 Mitchell and Daddy went to Mitchell’s favorite place in the world after the party…you guessed it…Toys R Us.\u00c2\u00a0 In fact, every night, Mitchell sits on the potty and looks at the different toy catalogs telling us he will get this or that for Christmas.<\/p>\n

Sunday, it was off to Johnny’s party at Chuck E Cheese.\u00c2\u00a0 Mac was less than thrilled going there.\u00c2\u00a0 He does not really like the Macot, so it took a while for him to enjoy himself.\u00c2\u00a0 He did, however, especially with the air hockey game.\u00c2\u00a0 That was a full weekend.\u00c2\u00a0 No golf lesson due to too much partying.<\/p>\n

Monday, November 3, 2008.\u00c2\u00a0 A new era!\u00c2\u00a0 They boys are nanniless!\u00c2\u00a0 It’s now time to begin full time school beginning with Daddy taking them to school at 0800 and Mommy picking them up before 530pm.\u00c2\u00a0 Mac is so excited and doesn’t want to be picked up before 530pm.\u00c2\u00a0 Mitchell, on the other hand, is taking it in stride and doesn’t want to stay in school till the end of the day…’come get me early, Mommy!\u00c2\u00a0 Fade out, Monday.<\/p>\n

Fade in, Thursday.\u00c2\u00a0 Alls well with the boys.\u00c2\u00a0 They are a little out of whack, but only due to being a little more tired at the end of the day.<\/p>\n

Time to wrap this up…Daddy needs some sleep.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
