A Little Scare

Yesterday Trisha gave us a little scare. She was trying to pull herself up on a tall laudry basket that was full and it fell on top of her. She started to breath in to cry. I went to pick her up, thinking she was fine, when I noticed her lips were turning blue! As I got her in my arms, her eyes started to roll back into her head and her body went limp. I shook her and she finally started to cry out loud. A couple minutes later I noticed a big bump by her left eye. And then a couple hours later I picked up a screw off the floor that she wanted and she started to breath in to cry and her lips turned blue and her eyes rolled back again, but she didn't seem to pass out. Jeff said he used to cry until he passed out when he was little. It's hard to tell what caused it. But I am glad she seems to be okay! It was one of the scariest experiences I have ever had!

Halloween

I really love Halloween! It was fun this year to dress Trisha up as a butterfly- a costume I bought used and my sister, Brittany, altered to fit. She was adorable!


Ty wanted to be Spiderman. He chose his own costume for the first time, so that was fun.


We had a few family costume parties and also went to the "Boo at the Zoo" celebration with some of my family. We saw some cute baby animals there- an elephant and a giraffe.


Jeff was Shredder this year, the villain from "Teenage Muntant Ninja Turtles". He worked long and hard on the costume and it turned out great! I didn't dress up this year, but I plan to next year. Hope everyone had a great Halloween!


Just a few other things.... Trisha has learned to pull herself up to standing. She also discovered how to climb the stairs, which she did like a pro the very first time! Tyler is really starting to get creative. He made our family made out of clay, and they were really cute! He can also write a few letters in his name. He is getting so big! By the way, if you are visiting my blog, please leave a note! It seems to me that no one ever visits anymore :(

I can finally put her hair in pig tails and they look so dang cute!!
