some cute pics from halloween!!!

I know its been awhile, but I have been so busy! We took the boys trick or treating and they where so cute! Batman and Robin. It was funny, I thought that they would get scared but they where really good. Than school has really been busy. I was sick the last few days and lets just say that it has not been good. I feel alot better today, which is good because I have class tonight and I just dont want to miss it.
I have been on Myspace lattley and wow I feel kinda trendy!! check it out if you want and ask to be my friend the more the merrier!! I think I am going to blog in both spots now.

Back in august when the boys went for there 9 month check up, Aidan held his breath after getting a shot and decided to pass out. (Not a good time I freaked out) The doctor told me this was normal that some kids are breath holders. Great, just what I need. Well, Tonight I got home from school early, just before the boys went to bed. Oh course they where both excited to see me. I was holding Eliot and Aidan fell over and hit his head on the corner of the incredi-block. He started to cry, I was reaching my hand out for him to sooth him and he stopped crying!!! He started turning red in the face and he was making no noise! Great he is now holding his breath again. He has not done this since back in august. I reached over for him and kind of shock his shoulders. I know that's not the best thing to do but I was freaking out in times like this one does not think straight, finally I blew in his face and he started crying. I just held him and he calmed down in just a few moments. I told my husband that I will just freak out if he does this to me all the time. That's my Aidan....

Eliot is now starting to walk! He can walk about 5-6 steps to me and kyle. He's really funny when he walks, he puts both arms in front of him. Kyle says he looks like frankinstin!! School has me really busy. I did have last Monday off and so did kyle so we went to the zoo with Karen and the girls. After the zoo we went to McDonald and Eliot fell asleep in the car. He would not wake up for anything and he sleeped right through lunch. It was funny, I tried to put him in the highchair and he just put his head on the table sleeping!! I ended up holding him the whole time. It was a funny sight! I have a chemisty test tonite....wish me luck. I spent the last few nights studying like crazy. This is my first test in this class.
This weekend we are taking the boys to a Halloween party with the in laws. Saturday nite its girls night out with Karen and the girls....Its going to be fun I don't get out that much.

Today before I had to go to class I was playing with the boys. We have a long hallway that goes to there play room. I hide in the playroom and pop out when they are coming down the hall. They think its the worlds funniest thing, because they laughed so hard. Aidan was walking towards me and decided to turn around and run. It was funny because he took this leap or something and fell. I was roaring like I was a lion and coming in closer. He was laughing trying to get away but I got him and he just laughed and smiled at me.....That's truly the best!!

I went to wal mart alone last night. No kids and no husband. It was nice to get a little time to myself. I wanted to check out the new tickle me elmo. I have not been able to find them anywhere, I ask an employee and they said they sell out in less than 20 min.!
FORGET IT!! I don't want one that bad. I checked on eBay and they are going for about $70-$100. I just wait till after Christmas to get one when no one cares about them anymore! I would never pay that much for something you can get in the store for $20!

We have a walker! Aidan is walking. Not like a pro or anything just stumbling around like a drunk. He's getting better everyday. Eliot still just crawls everywhere and has no interest in walking. He's a good crawler and just wants to do things his way. He is never to far behind Aidan. Once Aidan is doing it all the time he will catch up.
I have been really busy with all my classes Chemistry has tons of homework every week. Its a ton of math...blah and in life span I had to write a paper. Other than that not much going on. I really live a boring life. Kyle is settling into his new job and his boss is really looking to him for some good ideas to change up some classes to make them better. Kyle had an idea for a new class and they are going to look into it to see if they can get the computer program for it. I know he really wants to do well. I think he's doing a great job so far!

The boys have been really good the last couple of days. It rained on there birthday so we just stayed home as a family. That's kind of rare lately. With kyles m-f job and I go to class 3 nights a week and work most weekends, we never get to spend much time the 4 of us.
Today the boys where all over me. If one climbed up in my lab to be held than the other was right behind them trying to kick the other off. This would cause them to whine! I just hate it when there is whining. They really only do this when they are tired but today it was like they had to fight for my attention. I told them mommy has enough lap for both of them.

Yesterday I realized that they know how to throw things. I learned this the hard way, when I was laying on the floor a peek-a-block landed on my forehead....Ouch! Its funny to watch them throw something than chase after it and throw it again! Everyday I notice something new. The no bottle thing is 100% now!! They are really good eaters! Aidan more than Eliot but still good. I hate that they are still kind of small for there age (in the 30th % for weight). I don't want them to be fat just a good size. The dr. Tells me that they will catch up soon! I know they will.
