Halloween Fun

On the 17th we went to Elgin to gets pumpkins. Well the pumpkins were horrible but Riker got to ride the ponies, go on a hayride, and pet a horse. Even though we left without pumpkins I'm really glad we went. It was worth it for the fun he had.

This Friday we went to the pumpkin patch at St. Richard's and got the kids pumpkins. I am super picky about the kind of pumpkin I get. I will look for an hour for one pumpkin. This year Riker picked his own. It wasn't a bad one but it was hard to let him do that because I am so OCD about perfect pumpkins. Pathetic, I know. We went home to paint them and he wasn't messy at all. I was so suprised. Rien Rae didn't do much at all on her's since she is only 2 months old and all. lol.

Saturday, we went to the Pumpkin Fest in Round Rock. Riker got to ride ponies again and enjoyed the petting zoo. I love taking him to stuff like that. He enjoys it so much.

Saturday night we took the kids to Trunk-or-Treat at Westside. Riker had a lot of fun and Rien got a ton of attention from everyone who saw her. She was quite adorable and Riker was super excited to get to be Buzz Lightyear.

4 Weeks

Rien Rae is 4 weeks old. It is flying by. Yesterday was her last day at work with me. I will miss her but I'm glad because she is so alert for her age so she was ridiculously bored there. Today she had her first bottle. Sean wanted to see how she would do with it before Monday. She will still be getting only breastmilk but I'll be pumping so Sean can feed her while I am at work. I already have over 80 ounces in the freezer. With that plus daily pumping she should have plenty. lol. She did okay with the bottle. She struggled at first but ended up doing okay.

We bought her costume today. She is going to be Tinkerbell. I am so glad we found something. It's so hard to find real costumes for little ones. No offense to anybody but I can't stand those "bag" costumes. Now we just have to buy Riker's costume.

Jack went to my mom's today. It was so weird coming home tonight and him not be here. I'm gonna miss him. :(
