All the Small Things...

A Couple of Halloween Dresses...

I sewed this dress for Scarlet last year and was so sad that Halloween was over because she couldn't wear it anymore. Well, when I found out we were having Wednesday Jones, I KNEW another Halloween frock had to be made. This is what I came up with. I'm in love!

Halloween Attire...

Okay, so the clothing facts...

Keiran's jammies are from GYMBOREE .
Scarlet's tights and shirt are from TARGET .
Chandler's shirt is from TARGET .

The skirt Scarlet is wearing is a 2T.  She wore it when she was 1! LOL  Her belly must have been VERY chubby!

Twas the Night Before October...

and all through the house
preparations were being made
by Gillian and spouse.

For a breakfast of rolls
and treats
and yummies
to fill up their little ones'
chubby ol' tummies!

Halloween Clothes for Keiran...

I am SO excited for Keiran's first Halloween!  I think I know what he's going to be, but I'm still working it out in my mind a little.  It kind of depends on what Miss Scarlet wants to be because I want them to be a duo.  We'll see...

SO- here are a few Halloween Cutsies I have picked up for him...

Super cute, huh? 

If I can't dress him in bows...  ;) lol

Accomplished Today... (Monday 10/1)

Our October 1st Breakfast

I LOVE this day!  It was so fun surprising the kids with a festive breakfast and gifties too.  Dan was darling and brought home the giant bat balloon from the store... how cute is that?!  After a delicious blueberry pancake breakfast, we headed to the family room for an early morning dance.  We rocked out to Monster Mash, Time Warp and tons of other spooky tunes.  Scarlet's moves have definitley improved since last year's dance... she was ADORABLE!

Scarlet's 1st Day of October Ensemble

We started off October with a bang!  I love her tights with her black Converse high tops!

The after school picnic was postponed until tomorrow because Patrick came home from school quite ill.  :(

Family Home Evening

This is such a GREAT scary kid's movie!  It is really scary, but on a kid's level.  My boys LOVED it, but Scarlet was quite scared.  Not scared enough to leave the room though!  lol  It was written by Ronald Dahl and is about witches and little children who are turned into mice.  It's a must see... especially at this time of year! 

The Jack Skellington Dress...

So... when we were at Disney World this summer I saw this fab tank top and KNEW that I had to make a dress for Scarlet out of it.  The only problem was that it was a women's tank and it didn't come in children's sizes.  I bought it anyway and figured I could do something with it, even if I had to cut the design out of it and add it to one of her shirts.  So, a few weeks ago when I got out the tank to figure out what to sew, I had Scarlet try it on and it fit!!!  How sick is that?  My 4 year old fits into a womens size small tank??!?!?!  I can't imagine what woman would want to fit into a tank that my 4 year old could wear.  Oh well... what do I know?  lol

We had such fun when Scarlet wore this dress!  She wore it to Disneyland once and then around town a few times.  I never realized how many people loved Jack Skellington too!  FUN!!!

Off to School...

Miss Scarlet off to school with her new spider purse and cute Halloween jewelry!
