The kids' preschool had their annual Halloween festivities, including the parade, art projects with parents, etc. Luckily it's literally around the corner from our house, so if I work from home on school event days, I can slip over during my lunch and not miss a thing!
My Chunky Monkey smiling away at me!
Tinkerbell does the same. She did ask me after putting on her costume why she couldn't fly "up dere" in the sky since she was flapping her wings like Tinkerbell does. Awww...
Early Preschool II classmates, enjoying a snack before the big outdoor parade!
And here he is...the infamous Shad. We hear about "my Shaddie" EVERY day after school. I have to admit...the kid is a cutie!
Lauren and Shad cuddle for the camera.
Lauren's favorite teacher, Ms. Bryant (costumed as a diva!). This coincided with Ms. Bryant's last day before moving to NY state to be closer to her family. We are still feeling the loss, as Ms. Bryant has given Lauren a love of learning, she helped her move seamlessly through the transition of becoming a big sister with so much care, love, and special attention, that it made all the difference in the world. She has touched our lives and we miss her terribly!
Ms. Jackson holds our littlest Monkey. I guess all the excitement of getting ready for the parade tuckered him out!
Mommy poses with her sleeping Monkey anyway for posterity's sake. :)
My two little ones snuggle close. Lauren adores her baby brother. I hope they are alway so tickled by each other. She was very worried that he would be left outside alone in all the chaos following the parade so we hung tight until his teacher brought him back to his classroom.
After the parade, Mommy and Lauren worked on a special art project together that involved paper, glue, hand tracing, yarn, and very spooky googly eyes. We made a BAT! I loved working on a special project with my special girl.
As I mentioned in an earlier post, Todd and I came down with a nasty stomach bug on Halloween, so Mimi and Papa Fish were our saviors, coming to pick up the kids so Todd and I could sleep it off. A special Kat's Cradle Shout Out to Stephanie for taking Lauren trick-or-treating for us! You are the best!

Bless her little heart for wanting to flap her wings and fly. Such logical thinking skills that girl has :) I didn't know about her teacher's departure. That has to be tough. I'm sure with a school like Primrose they have a great one to try to fill her shoes.
