so far behind...

that i think i've made a complete circle and i've almost caught up with myself.

if that makes sense then you know exactly what i'm talking about!

okay i'm gonna try and get back on track here! i'm usually pretty good about staying on top

of my blog! i'm still doing my gratitude journal. i just haven't completed the last 2 layouts.

i'm getting the pics. for one of them tomorrow. then i think i'll start back up again on this sunday. that way i don't have to try and play catch up! i've been busy with a few

other things and just kinda let those slide.

let's see how far back do i go?

HALLOWEEN

some of you knew my exciting dilemma for aliya's costume this year! and you get to hear

it again. well about 2 months ago i found a really cute costume at

a yard sale and only paid $2 for it! i was so proud of myself! i thought i was ahead of the

game! NOPE! aliya threw a kink into that plan! she informed that she wasn't dressing up!

no matter what i said she wouldn't budge on her decision!

UNTIL

3 days before halloween!

she came up to me and informed me that she wanted to be a "DOG".

okay????

ya well about 2 minutes later she decided that she needed to be a

"SUPER DOG"

no budging on that decision either.

so off we went shopping on the hunt for super dog! man did i luck out!

i ended up at j's and found this cute little headband with floppy ears and a nose that

came down and covered her face. perfect now for a cape!

well we found one in a pile of all the opened costumes at the bottom of the shelf.

the lady at the store gave it to us!

so we had the majority of our costume. we went to wally world and found a cute baseball t-shirt, gray with red sleeves. so i just stenciled on it and she was set!

for the next few days she wouldn't take that mask and cape off! she went around the house

yelling "super dog to the rescue!"

so for halloween i put these steam rollers in her hair. i just love when her hair is curly!

well that caused a screaming fit when i took them out. her comment was,

"NO, I DON'T WANT TO LOOK LIKE A GRANDMA!"

okay, what??????????

well i got her calmed down and she turned out soooo cute! we got many compliments

on her costume! a few of which really irritated her! when people told her what a cute dog, bear or whatever! she said in a stern voice 'i'm not a (dog, bear, or whatever) i'm super dog!

so needless to say we had an eventful halloween!

the other 2 were at their dads so no stories to unload about them!

okay i'm definitely a chatter! so i'm not going to catch you up all in one post!

i'll come back later tonight or sometime tomorrow.

i'll post the halloween pics also!

later!
