Logan Sleeps With Underware

Mommy didn't know that Logan wore his underwear to bed last night. I guess daddy and Logan decided to try the underwear and when I say goodnight to Logan he is already under his covers. When he woke up this morning he was so happy. I didn't know why until daddy asked Logan if he has told me what he did. His underwear was a little wet but overall he did fantastic. That was a great surprise for me. I hope that Logan will continue this and be weened off diapers permanently.

A Fire at Brooklyn's School?

Brooklyn had a very unusable dismissal today. Right at 3pm their fire alarms went off. Because of this, they had to clear the school and wait for the fire department to come to the school. They had all kids counted for in 5 minutes and by 315 they fire department had cleared the school. Luckily there was no fire but a false alarm. Before we got word, a mom stopped to tell us that there was a fire in the cafeteria. Its funny how news travels fast. Brooklyn didn't come home till 350 and normally she is off the bus by 317. I had asked her what had happened she told me that a little boy pulled the alarm. Who knows what the real reason was but the main thing was all the kids were safe. It was quite an adventure for her.

Brooklyn's Loses Her 3rd Tooth

Yes, Brooklyn lost her 3rd tooth at school on Monday. I would have reported to you then but we were out phone service and internet service for two days. Thank goodness we didn't need 911. Brooklyn has been waiting to lose the tooth for quite sometime. The tooth is one of your front teeth. She actually looks very cute without her tooth. I did take pictures so you all can see. She was so excited because the tooth fairy gave her $4.00. She was satisfied with that amount. Some other tooth fairies give a lot more than that but I tell her that she didn't have any other money on her to give. She bought it and that is what counts.

Trick or Treat

Last night was a fun night for all. The kids were so excited to go trick or treating that they kept asking almost every hour when we are going. Daddy stayed home and handed out candy and mommy and nei nei took the kids around the neighborhood . Brooklyn was a very pretty fairy, Logan was a scary dragon, and Brooklyn was a cute purple unicorn. Madison was still too young to really know what she had to do to ask for her candy but she had the goodbye down. Almost every house we went to everyone loved Logan's costume. Brooklyn was getting upset and she thought that noone liked her costume but I told her that there were lots of fairy's and very few dragons. Lilly was a fat pumpkin and an adorable one as well. Our neighborhood is filled with young kids that many houses just had bowls of candy out in front of their door while they were out with their kids so the kids were getting mad that they couldn't ring the door bell. By the end, Madison was so tired that I had to carry her home. We have more candy than we know what to do with. Eveyone's teeth will fall out now. Overall it was a good Halloween.

Logan Attends His First School Social

Today was a busy day for the booth family. I didn't realize that when I was organizing Logan's school social I had scheduled it on the same day that Brooklyn had her boosterthon fun run. None the less, we made all appearances and by the end of the day the kids were exhausted. We had Logan's social at McDonald's. You can't go wrong with that. Logan and Madison had a blast playing with all of the kids. I think they played more than ate their lunch but that is okay. They eventually ate their lunch at home. This was the first social of the year so it was a great opportunity to meet all of the parents and learn the kids names as well. Usually the first function has the best turn out so hopefully we can maintain a good turnout through out the year. I will have to say it was a success and if you ask Logan he would agree with mommy. Madison was along for the ride but she had just as much fun as everyone else.

Boosterthon Fun Run

Today was Brooklyn's school Boosterthon fun run. All the grades in the school are given a form and they are encouraged to get as many pledges or donations as possible. This is the only fundraiser their school has planned so its a big one. The object of this fun run is each kid is "suppose to run 35 laps." Now these laps are pretty short but I will tell you the kids were running hard and they did get tired toward the end. Each grade was given 1 hour to do their run and all their family members were out there supporting their child. We all had a great time out there and I made posters for many of our parents who showed up and supported the class. The money being raised is going toward a tarp to put over their playground. Their goal was $25,000 and from what they were saying today, they did achieve that goal. I was proud of Brooklyn and thank you all who gave Brooklyn donations. The money is going toward a great cause.

Safety Town

This past Friday was trick or treat at Safety Town. This is the second year that we have done it and if it wasn't for Michele's husband, Will there is no way I would stay in line to get into the facility to go trick or treating. There are tons of sponsors and plenty of candy to go around. All week we were watching the weather. At times during the day it did rain but we thought the rain would hold off until after the event. We are able to get into the facility about 45 minutes before everyone else. After that they open the doors for everyone else. We managed to get through the whole place before it really started to storm. We got in our cars right before the rain just fell out of the sky. Thank goodness it was a success for us. You would think with the weather and the Texas Rangers there wouldn't have been a lot of families there but that wasnt' the case at all. Here are some pictures from Friday night. Brooklyn and Campbell were twins and they were Fairies, Logan was a dinosaur, Madison was a purple unicorn and Blake was a dragon.
