The Standoff

So Sunday night I made a roast with potatoes and carrots. Well Caden decided that he didn't like anything on his plate (not that this is that unusual with Caden.) Eli told him that if he couldn't at least try everything on his plate that he couldn't have any of his Halloween candy. I thought that would do the trick for sure, but alas it did not and so the the standoff began...




From the look on his face you would think all I had offered him was brussell sprouts
and cooked spinach!


Now I know how my Mom felt. I happened to be a pretty picky eater myself. I remember spending ALOT of time sitting at the table after everyone else had finished. So who do you think won the standoff???



I am happy to report that this round went to the parents!!!!

Happy Halloween

We had so much fun on Halloween. We went to the trunk or treat in our neighborhood and then headed over to a friends house for a Halloween party. Caden kept asking me all day if it was time for the Pumpkin Halloween party at Makensie's house. Caden got to go trick or treating again with a few friends and had a great time!




Abigail was a pink flower with a tu-tu with lots and lots of tulle!!!


Caden was a train conductor. He loves the train schedule and the walkie-talkie. Thanks Grandma for the costume!
