Halloween and Cousin Time

Well, I like to wait approximately a month between taking pictures and writing about them...so here we are at Halloween! 🍂  The kiddos had a great time carving pumpkins.  Landon likes to go traditional and carve the jack-o-lantern while Emmy always has to get creative.  She originally wanted to carve The Little Mermaid, but that was WAY too difficult, so she made her own creation.

For trick or treating, Emerson really wanted to go as Mal from the movie Descendants 2, but that costume was over $30 so we compromised and found costumes at home this year.  Em was happy she could do face paint 🐶 and Landon was happy to not have to get all dressed up ⚾.  We met up with the Clarks at Todd and Cathy's.  Brooklyn was a unicorn🦄 and Caleb (who was too busy to get a non-blurry picture) was Superman 👓.

We got to watch Brooklyn and Caleb overnight and it was so neat to see how they bonded with their cousins.  Landon did a great job playing with Brooklyn.  He kept her entertained and sang to her.  Emerson loves taking care of Caleb.  She helped him get dressed and took him to the bathroom when he needed to go.  Watching a 2 year old and 6 month old keep you on your toes, but with two older kids to help, it's much easier!
