Christmas deco

The boys wanted to get the Christmas tree and lights up ASAP! They did a great job, in fact, we let them put most of the ornaments on the tree themselves. Waymond then moved around several. He said he now understands why his mom always said, "you are bunching them up, spread them around."

Every morning its a race to see who gets to turn the lights on.

The boys and their drawings

The boys love the dry erase board and use it often!

The many questions

This morning was a late start for the boys so we had an extra two hours at the house. Which worked out nicely because it took them about 30 minutes to eat breakfast! Isayas had an english muffin with a fried egg with bacon pieces, half a banana and then a bowl of cereal! After he put his dishes in the kitchen he said, "my belly is full!" I'm imagining our grocery bill when they are teenagers...scary!

As I was doing their hair this morning Isayas was looking at himself in the mirror. He said, "mom, what makes my eyes able to see?" A rather big question for the morning in my opinion! I told him we would have to Google it to get all the answers.

I think all the questions are the hardest part of being a mom. Isayas is a rapid firer of questions, all day long! He wants to know about everything. How an engine makes the car go, how is eye works, how electricity works are just a few recently. I feel like I should have gotten a Masters Degree in some kind of science to mother him! :o)

Musical Talents

This quite a normal evening at the Hampton house before bed. The video is a bit long, sorry.

Just dressing up

It doesn't have to be halloween for Ermias to dress up. He usually is coming up with something.

This is his Indian Jones look.

And, this I'm not sure...Batman mixed with Indian Jones? He has Uno playing cards tucked inside his belt. He's creative to say the least!!

The costumes

The Hampton boys on their way for a little trick or treating! Batman, Darth Vader and a hipster Indian Jones!

I stayed at home and passed out candy to two trick or treaters. Sad! Thankfully we didn't have a ton of candy to get rid of. I'm thinking of passing our leftovers on to the boys' teachers for their prize boxes.

They got to pick one piece of candy to eat after dinner. It was a hard decision!
