Happy Halloween

Happy Halloween everyone! We stayed in most of the day to continue to work on this potty training thing. I know it's not neccesary to stay home, but MJ has been doing so well with this, I don't want to mess anything up. He spent 2 hours at St. Theresa with me while I taught yesterday, and managed to mostly make it to the potty in time there.

So, we passed the time today and carved a pumpkin. We have a book called Joey the Jack O Lantern. I remember reading that with MJ last year and thinking how we would have a little Joey with us for the next Halloween...and here he is! Whenever he sees a jack o lantern, MJ thinks it should be called "Joey the Jack O Lantern."

MJ did a nice job of helping me. I am learning to give up being a perfectionist (one of the many personality flaws that being a mommy has helped me to work on). This may not have been our best pumpkin, but we did it together. By the way, I am not fond of pumpkin innerds... yuck!

Tara, Little Tony, and Xavier had us over for dinner and trick or treating tonight. Here are my little Super Mario Brothers!
