Halloween 2014
Well my girls went out as Elsa and Anna - big shocker for everyone out there. They were perfectly set for this combo tonight. Reagan is the oldest and a blonde. Maddy is the younger one and a brunette. Perfect. They walked around together.
They were both super excited. Jim and Papa took them around. Maddy and Papa apparently were running from house to house. Jim stuck with Reagan. Maddy made it all the way down the street and back and called it a night. She was done. She walked in the house, found Mimi and called it quits. Wow
Reagan wanted to keep going. She and Jim took off while the rest of us handed out candy and watched some Halloween spooky shows. Reagan made it almost 90 minutes before she decided she was cold enough. I was pretty impressed. She actually came inside and said "I want to go back out when I get warm". I just smiled. She had enough candy and it was time to settle down.
Both of them were tuckered out from the full day. It was a successful fun time, as always.

Dresses
Maddy is obsessed with dresses and the dressy ones. I got all of her fall clothes - or shall I say dresses - and she won't wear any of them. She still wants to wear the sundresses. Today she had on her princess dress and yes she wore it to school. It's funny. She did this last year too. I had forgotten a bit, but she really hates dressing warm. But once she gets really cold, she'll give in. :)
Air quotes with a rhetorical question
Reagan has started using air quotes officially. I have no idea where she gets this from, but at least she uses them right. She's really cracking me up all the stuff she comes home with too - little sayings that kids start to learn (nothing bad) and just starting to be a little more grown up.
Oh and the rhetorical question is official. She's used it three times in the right way. That means it can get documented as something she knows. :) And yes, she uses it in the right way and only at funny times. I said something to Jim tonight and he answered. I wasn't really looking for an answer, but he answered the obvious answer. She said "dad, I think that was a rhetorical question" with her look of "duh" that she has perfected so well.
Love her.

Uh-oh
Reagan got in trouble at school. She darted out of the play area ahead of the teacher and (whoops) got in trouble. She got a note sent home - the head of the school was not pleased at all. :(
By the time I knew about it, she had already gone to bed. So I spoke to her this morning. She told me what happened. She didn't lie. I was so grateful and happy that she understood to tell the truth.
Proud mama (for the not lying part).

Green poop
Reagan had green poop this morning. Not just kinda green - electric green. Apparently she had a lot of blue frosting the day before. Wow was it bright :)

Maddy's first birthday party
Maddy had her first friend birthday party today. She was so cute. She had actually totally forgotten about it. When we reminded her, she got hyper. We got to Silverlake and she saw her name - so happy. They both posed for me super fast and then went on in.
She bounced with her friends for a really long time and then they went swimming. She basically played with Arnov the entire time. It was really nice meeting some of the moms and meeting some of the kids too that she talks about.
Once we got to the party room, she had sweetly saved a seat for her best friend, Arnov. They are literally inseparable. I was amazed at how well she did with all the kids and activities. I hope she had a really fun time.
Jim was scheduled to go out of town after the party. She looked up at him on the way to the car and said "daddy do you have to go now?" and got really upset. It broke his heart, and mine too. But at least she had a really nice party.
