Everything from the last week of October

Our little garden fairy herself. For those of you who didn't know our theme this year, it was all things garden-rific. It all goes back to last year when my mom got this little costume for $1. It was a little girls costume, she was mostly thinking it would be fun for dress up, low and behold, it was Elle's perfect size for Halloween. I originally wanted us all to be fairy's (Jeremy included, he'd be like the death fairy or something w/ gore) but w/ Elle being a flower I thought Eva could be her garden fairy, I became a bee and Jeremy was a gardener...a dead gardener....men. Trunk or Treating at church, I forgot my camera for all the downtown trick or treating, but we did go and it was fun; we went with grandpa (as usual) and grandma this year and that was very fun...but walking around for about 2 hours was very tiring!
This is Eva with her friend Livi, aren't they adorable, I will give you a million dollars if you guess how far apart in age they are...2 years? 3 years? Give up, 3 months, that's right, they are 3 months apart...and that my friends is why people ask me if Eva is 6 years old and not 4. I will admit that Livi is a very petite girl and Eva is of course on the other spectrum of that but still, it makes for a great picture!

Elle: " West-siiiiiide Brower's in hiz-ouse! Rep-Ra-centin' at trunk or treeeeaaaaattttt!!!"

And cheese.
Family picture...Jeremy had sweet make-up on for work but he took it off, wimp.
That's how we roll.

The best garden fairy ever, continually tending to her flower, her crazy, crazy flower.

Wardrobe change. This was Eva's next ensemble for neighborhood trick or treating, she picked this out all on her own, cute, right? p.s. she hates my flash so she never opens her eyes.
This was a few days before at my parents house, carving pumpkins.
This is Elle looking at my brother...I have no idea why...well I have a few ideas but I wont go into any details...but she is completely freaked out by my brother. He stood next to her and she looked at him like this the whole time and did not move a muscle...I think I may hire him as a babysitter/person to come grocery shopping with me.

Concentrating on her pumpkin, she named him Jack after Jack on a nightmare before Christmas, she's only seen it like once I think...she had an amazing scar on him that she created all by herself.


Seriously, she's crazy. I think this is right after she picked a tomato off of my dads plant and ate it raw...then decided she didn't really like it and tried to put it back on the plant, adorable. She doesn't lack personality in the slightest.I totally forgot to take a picture of our awesome porch, we won the community contest!!! It was pretty awesome, I think what got us the win was this sweet strobe light that sounded like lighting....I love scaring stupid kids...I mean, Happy Halloween.
After a long day of trick or treating daddy loves a great spa treatment from his best girl Eva. Yes, he asked her if she wanted to draw all over his face...I thought she was going to pee her pants with excitement. She's quite the artist and did a very detailed scar on his nose.

I hope this is good for a while...I've been sucking lately at updating anything.
On an actual update: Eva started her new medication today (boo) so we'll be doing that twice a day for the next 3 years...I hate medicating a child, it's the worse feeling I've ever had, it makes me feel guilty, dirty and sad.

blahhhh

As much as I wanted to put all my pictures up, this day has just not gone as planned...
I have a midterm tonight so I planned on studying all day (as much as the girls would let me) and then Jeremy was going to come home early so I could have some actual quiet study time. Instead when I went to get Eva up (b/c she had slept in) she was lying flat on her back with dried brownish foamy spit up all over her mouth, hair and nose. I thought she had already seized b/c she seemed very asleep but I couldn't tell if she had wet herself yet. A few minutes after I brought her to my bed she wet herself so I'm not sure if she was in mid seizure or if she was having a second seizure, I don't really know.
Needless to say this day has not gone as planned and I don't think I'm going to be able to get a good grade on this test, I'm hoping my teacher will let me take it tomorrow.
Eva has been in and out all day, this last seizure kicked her bum, she's really out of it.
She will now be on medication (which I'm not thrilled about) for the next three years or so and then we'll go from there...she's also getting an MRI for precautionary reasons.
I'll try and get our Halloween photos up within the next few days and some other things we've been up to for the last week or so. blahhhh.

Happy Halloween!!

I hope everyone has a safe and happy halloween!! I'm very excited to be runing around all day like my head's cut off- hmm, maybe THAT should have been my costume, next year.
Elle, last year in the corn maze.

Beaver Believer

Loving it.Getting over it.



She ran away from me taking pictures of her, Jeremy was in the dining room cleaning so she was running back and forth between him and the kitchen trying to avoid me. Honestly I thought it was really funny.



The final result was burying her face in daddy's legs. I wasn't her favorite person after this little photo shoot.

Over it.
