Face Painting

We went to the school fundraiser on saturday, and there was a face painter there. Chloe actually wanted to get hers done. The lady made only a small butterfly because we didn't know how much she would let her do. It was very hard to get a good picture, Chloe refused to sooperate.

Enjoying Cookies

I bought some cookies with icing on them last week, and Chloe and Jayden really enjoyed them.

Baking

I have to keep Chloe occupied a little more than I used to now, if not her and Jayden gang up and start doing bad things together. So last week we baked some chocolate chip cookies. Chloe poured the ingredients and then mixed them. Her favourite part was tasting. While we were doing that Jayden was having a snack in his high chair.

Just Being Silly

I was folding clothes in the bathroom, and I could hear Chloe and Jayden emptying a cupboard in the kitchen (there is nothing dangerous in it, so I let them to get peace). When I came to check on them, Chloe had found the headlamp, and this is what she looked like. I have no idea how she knew it went there.

Elliots Costume

We went for supper at Scott and Catherine's house last Friday, and Elliot's Halloween costume was laying around. It was a dwarf. We put the hat and beard on Jayden and he found it hilarious. Here he is doing his regular camera smile.

Madison's Birthday

On Sunday, we went to Madison's house to celebrate her 2nd birthday. We had lots of fun decorating pumpkins and cupcakes. It was also funny to see chloe and the other kids playing and running around in their Halloween costumes. Not one of them complained about them.

Here Chloe and Jayden were ready to leave for the party (we waited until we got there to wear the costume because of the car seat).

Here are the pumpkins that Chloe and Jayden decorated at the party. Obviously, they did them all on their own. Jayden had more stickers on at some point, but he decided to take them off and eat them.

Halloween

Saturday evening the kids got all dressed up for Halloween even though it was pouring rain and really windy. It was very hard to get good pictures because we had no electricity (for a whole day). We just had time to finish cooking supper before it went out.

Chloe was dressed up as a spider, it is very hard to see all her legs because she wouldn't lift her arms, but it was very cute. Jayden was Winnie the Pooh (someone lent me the costume). We even had a costume for Doggy, in case Chloe didn't want to wear hers. We went trick or treating at Glen and Caroline's house and at Aunt Helen's. Then we just decided to go to the fire hall where they gave out candy and had a haunted house. At least it was warm there, and we were out of the rain ( Daddy was working there).

Here are Chloe and Jayden with Papou, sitting in the nice dry warmth of the fire hall. We were going to do a couple more houses, but then decided against it and went back home. Chloe was scared of the haunted house, so we turned back and didn't take her through it. Other than that, she was a very good sport about wearing her costume. She didn't complain at all.
