It's cold and raining. I hope my kid decides not to trick or treat. Doubtful but still. I'll be picking up something to drink I just don't know what yet.
Got DS all dressed up (Bugs Bunny!)..there was some crying involved. Just waiting for DH to get out of the shower so we can go ToTing. We're only stopping by like 2 people's houses so it shouldn't take long. I have zero energy.
My child has been on a Barney Christmas spiral for the last few weeks. She knows ALL the Christmas Carols. The best is when she sings "jingle bells as Jingle belly"
It's raining here. I'm not thrilled. And I'm nervous about getting Squeaker to sleep if people ring the bell, even thoigh our porch light won't be on. And I really want a hot toddy or etc tonight but no way if making that happen
I have a wild train engineer on my hands right now. Waiting for my H to get home to take him trick or treating. Hoping we get some people here. I bought wway too much candy.
My kid is Elsa. CanI have a shot every time she asks me what the kids are coming to the door for? This is our last year being able to skimp on taking her before she figures it out. She's asking so many "what's that?" that I'd almost rather we had taken her out. Sigh.
We had a busy night of 7 kids. More then I ever have I guess growing up we never had any and until this year we were in an apartment. Ds was a little bee and I was his queen bee. Wish I could aw and dd! He's now in bed and SO just went to bed with a headache so I'm now drinking beer and bumping
We never get many children. I'm glad our TOT wasn't today. It's rainy and in the mid 40s. We wouldn't have had any children. Our TOTers ended up with 2-3 full size bars each plus other candy. It wasn't staying in my house.
OMG The teens have arrived. My house is being taken over. Two girls walked in with the sushi and a dozen others turned into vultures. They were supposed to be outside in a tent, but the rain has forced them to commandeer the whole basement. it should quiet down once the scary movies start. Or maybe not.
Stealing the actual bowl is another level of shittiness IMO. I mean, if you leave unattended candy, there's a good chance one person will empty it, but leave the bowl. Maybe he was worried about fingerprints. lol
My little skeleton! I drank a margarita out of a Gatorade bottle while TOT and now SO is taking LO to his mom's and I think I might color my hair if I'm not too drunk.

Audball is so high on candy. She's singing Jingle Bells in some sort crazy Halloween voice.
I need Moar beer.
That was Reese---including the Jingle Bells part. At one point a piece of her toy was missing so I told her I would look for it after she went to bed. She proceeded to tell me: "NO, I'll look for it AFTER you go to bed" and laughed hysterically.
We got back a little while ago. DS is in bed. DH is bringing some wood in the house to keep the stove stocked for the night.
We only ended up making one stop down to our neighbors' house (Ds's honorary grandparents...dh and i call them ma and dad bc they are our honorary in-state parents). They loaded DS up wih candy, Capri Sun, and various other kinds of junk food that a grandparent would spoil their grandkids with. Excellent dinner, eh? Fuck it.
He had fun and we got to just relax and hang for a bit. It was nice and low key. Now I'm hanging on the couch wondering whag DH and I are gonna eat for dinner. Preferably something quick. And yummy.
ToTing was fun, but cold! We took DD out for her first time. She loved it and H and I really enjoyed taking her to a few houses. I'm also going to AW DS because he is the cutest puppy ever created.
I want to host a poker night tomorrow, but I don't feel like being around people. I'm conflicted. I won't need to clean and DD can help make snacks. DH is on board. I need to decide soon and send out a few texts. I don't know.
I'm not a big Halloween person, but tonight was magical. It was DS's first time TOT. He was so polite and people kept giving him extra handfuls if candy because he was so cute. The joy he had really made this a night I will remember. And AW my lil Mountie (with my BFF/his godmother).
When we got home we 'sorted' his candy. Tootsie rolls- choking hazard. Too young for gum. Carmel apple pops- nope. Fuzzy peaches? Might aspirate the sugar. Mars bars? He might... Ummm... Whatever. Mine.
And he still has a HUGE bag of candy left. Which is now his potty rewards.
We are finally home. Thank you sweet baby Jesus thats over for another year. We always have a blast but zomg at the chaos. I have not stopped since my feet hit the floor this morning!
So far so good on my random toddler babysitting gig. Got all 3 of the littlest littles down & out, & am doing some relaxing with my big girls for a bit before heading to bed.

I did the teal pumpkin thing. Not one kid has said they were allergic and asked for alternative candy/ stuff. Oh well, I tried.

I didn't realize people actually wore sexy nun costumes.
