A Short Story
Once Upon A Time, there was a young boy. His mommy went out of town for business, so his daddy had to fend for himself for an entire weekend. Much to mommy's surprise, both the daddy & the boy made it out alive. There was only one small problem.
You see, this young boy was given something that the mommy didn't think he needed. And now, the young boy knows exactly where it is kept. Obviously, he has his eye on the prize.
"I'm asking very nicely, mommy. Don't you think I deserve a reward?"
The mommy replied, "My love, it's 10am. We don't have M&Ms for breakfast!"
"But Mommy, please? Pretty please? I just might die from lack of chocolate!" the little boy exclaimed.
He put his thumb in his mouth in an attempt to calm down, but nothing would satisfy his appetite, except a tasty M&M.
"Surely it is worth one more try," he thought to himself. So he decided to ask his mommy again.
"Mommy? Please? Please can I have more?"
How could the mommy say no to a face like that? 10 am or not, it looked like the only cure was going to be an M&M.
"Thank you, mommy!" he quickly exclaimed. "You made my heart (and belly) so happy!"
The only thing left to do was show his mommy why this was such a fun thing to do.
The chocolate was yummy, but the blue tongue was quite possibly the best part!
And he lived happily ever after - because he got an M&M at 10am.

Halloween
Halloween has come and gone, but I knew you would want to see some of the fun we had! I was planning to update this earlier, but last week was anything but a joyride. I ended up in the emergency room for a kidney infection and kidney stones on Thursday night. Thankfully I am feeling much better now!
The Daddy and I went to the World Series on Saturday night with Nana and Poppers, so Little Dude stayed the night with Grammy and Grampa. When we got there on Sunday, we put him in his costume.
Here he is playing on a toy that I used to play on as a kid!

Here he is with Grammy and Grampa!
Bet you didn't know that lions liked to do woodworking!

After we left their house, we went to see Gabs & Boomps. Here the curious little lion discovered where the candy was.
He loves to ring the windchimes with Boomps!
And he loves to swing on Gabs' swing!
We carved our pumpkins to get ready for the night!
After Little Dude had a nap, we went to see Nana & Poppers. Little Dude kept dumping keys out of a box, then would pick them up and put them back into the box, dump it, repeat. Over and Over and Over again.
We didn't take Little Dude trick-or-treating through the neighborhood just because he is too young to eat candy (and Mommy & Daddy certainly don't need it!). He had fun playing with the new toys that he got from everyone!
On Monday night, we went to the World Series again and sat with some good friends of ours. We had a great time, even if the Rangers lost! I'm sure you're interested in the Little Dude more, but here's a pic of us from the game!
