The dentist and Halloween

Funny how the dentist and Halloween go together. Cam went to his pediatric dentist last week and had two fillings done. He did absolutely wonderful and when I asked him about it, he said it didn't even hurt. This from the kid who won't let my dentist even look in his mouth. Pediatric dentists are amazing. I highly recommend! As a treat after his appointment, I took him to Build-a-Bear where he picked out a Big Bird to stuff and got a Buzz Lightyear costume to put on him. All very silly and surprisingly expensive, so it's not likely to happen again :) Cam LOVES his Big Bird though and I am very proud of him.

Mom made Captain Hook and Tinkerbell costumes for the kids and they got to try them out on Friday. Here are pictures I took before we went to the zoo for the pumpkin prowl (surprisingly disappointing, but the kids seemed to have fun).

Tomorrow, I plan to take the kids to a pumpkin patch and then back to the zoo to watch the zoo keepers feed pumpkins to the animals. I think it sounds like fun and Jeff wants time to work.

I finished a scarf I was knitting for Jeff. I'm very proud of myself. Besides the fruitcup hats, it's the only thing I have actually finished. Okay, that's almost true - I still have to tie off the last piece and then it will be all done.
