This is NOT a yarn post.
You’ll survive.
Time to bake
Got my helper
I made these for Halloween last yea
I think a tradition is in the making
What is Halloween without owl and pumpkin sugar cookies?
my helper was still, well, helpful
I frosted; he sprinkled
pumpkin carving
cooking spooky food in my spooky socks.
halloween preparations require the proper attire
although, I do dress like this all year long so today I just got lucky.
the perfect halloween supper is spooky spaghetti
Only to counter the sugar I added extra veggies and roasted butternut squash.
SHHHHH
it’s TRICK or TREAT right?
my finicky child ate it all up so WOOT!
have to make these
since it’s orange week, sweet potato fries had to find their way into the oven and into my face.
scary pumpkin was lit
time to transform from a 3 year old to the Aviator
do you hear Will Smith’s voice…”I make this look goooooooood”
Men in Black anyone?
I beg my husband to get him an agent so I can retire in luxury
He is such a ladies’ man
All I said was “make your hubba hubba face”
VOILA.
suave rico
he’s off.
lock up your daughters
no, I mean it.
last year he crashed before he could eat one single candy
this year he’s wound up tighter than my ball of yarn.
Parenting doesn’t really begin until your child talks back

I thought the squash would be strong but you didn’t even know it’s there (and niether did JJ)
so woo hoo for more nutrition!

O.M.G. JJ kills me!!! Are you sure he didn’t go as a DIVA for Halloween??? That pose still has me laughing and I read your post the firs time at 4:50 this morning when I woke up! Seriously I think that is the cutest kid-pic I’ve ever seen and I have a LOT of nieces and nephews!
Hubba hubba face is right!
LOLx1000!

He’s a boy diva that’s for sure, and a cocky pilot too.
someone up the street made a comment about his obvious confidence and I cringed a little.
yeah, he’s not lacking in the self esteem dept.
manners? yes.
haha
jk.
he’s pretty good for a lady killer.

no need to cringe at the fact the you are raising a child with confidence – I think it’s great! He can send some my way, I could use a little extra
I think he’s a SUPER kid!

SUCH a cute aviator costume, I love it!
November 1st, 2011 at 12:29 pm
Thanks Megan.
I just stopped by your blog….how much fun!!!!
November 1st, 2011 at 7:21 pm
I hope you had a great Halloween, Cindy….looks like so much fun, so much nice food…but nothing beats the aviator!
November 2nd, 2011 at 7:42 am
why oh why does he always steal the show.
my cupcakes are depressed now!
ACTUALLY I made half those cupcakes for the neighbor kids next door and last night they came by and said they thought they were from a bakery….
so TAKE THAT!
haha
but really, my son loves dress up.
He’s a lot of fun.
November 1st, 2011 at 9:18 pm
that aviator costume is adorable on JJ! I’m very impressed by your spooky cupcakes, too. Way to go!
November 2nd, 2011 at 7:44 am
thanks Meri!
I was trying to make him a minion but I am pretty sure we would be explaining what he was if I did.
I think it’s odd he seems to have a pilot theme with all his dress up ideas.
he’s been buzz lightyear, a pollen jock (a bee pilot actually), and an aviator.
I should probably prepare myself for his career in aviation, either that or a zombie chef.

rambling….too much coffee
