I have decided to participate in NaBloPoMo this month. This means I will be posting every single day. I am actually really excited about challenging myself. I find that I had all of these goals that I kept postponing "...until after I have the baby." Well I've had the baby and now I find that my goals are on a much smaller scale. For example, I was going to learn how to cook. I had plans to research different recipes and try new things, maybe even watch a cooking show or two, but now I find I make it a goal just to clean my kitchen. I guess we all need to start small!

Yesterday was Halloween, which is a holiday I am starting to enjoy more and more. At work we all dressed up in our favorite decade and had a Halloween party, pretty much all day. This is one of the benefits of working with kids, the holidays are decadently celebrated. I was a hippie from the 60's. Caleb called me a tree hugger and Micaela told everyone her mama was a tree hugger for Halloween.

Micaela was a witch...



and Scarlett was a cow.



We took the girls trick-or-treating, which was a hit with Micaela. She asked after every house, "are we going to get more candy?" Finally I called it quits, much to the dismay of the other members of my family who would have stayed out all night.
