Our treats...

The butterflies a.k.a. our children had so much fun trick or treating. The costumes turned out great - wings all glittery - and Alena was so excited to ring the door bells. "Trick or Treat please..." and then both girls just loved to look at each candy to decide which one they wanted. They just loved to decide whether they wanted the yellow, or orange package. Alena told a few people "I cannot have this, but it's fund to pick a piece of candy out..." It was so sweet...OK, OK I know every mother says that about her own kids, but it really was sweet. Our route was up-and-down our block and towards the end I had to carry Mia Rosie's bag. It was THAT heavy :) Back home we first looked through Alena's huge pile. Alena and I sorted out the "Good" from the "Bad". Amazing to me that she knows most of the candies she cannot eat. In the end she traded 30 "Bad" candies for 30 "Good" candies (OK - Alena did not get 30 pieces in return but around 20), besides that she still had 20+ "Good" candies. Mia Rose had a little over 20 "Bad" candies... they certainly made out very well. Oh, and if you are wondering the "Bad" candy is now being consumed mainly by me...and I certainly don't need it ;)

Unfortunately they did not only pick-up candy treats, but also picked-up a nasty cold. Alena came down with a bad cough and fever yesterday. Today both girls have a fever and both slept almost the entire afternoon. FYI - we did go to our physician's office today and she was quite sure that it is not H1N1. We just hope that it is not and that we can keep the flu away until we get the vaccine....

P.S.: I would love to hear your trick or treat stories :)

Trick or Treat - Happy Halloween

Wow - it is already Halloween, what happened to the time. We know have a child in Kindergarten and time just flies. I hope everyone has been well, drop me a line when you have a chance.

Halloween Eve - both of our girls are so excited. I am writing this on my computer in the basement while the girls are already so excited to go trick or treating. Both are butterflies this year. Pictures to follow later :) - I actually feel somewhat prepared this year. We made the wings, and I bought the candy at Target already a couple of weeks ago. I got two giant bags all with CG safe candy. Skittles, Nerds, Sweet Tarts, Sunburst, and Junior Mints. We will have plenty of candy for kids in the neighborhood but will make sure to save a lot for our girls. When we go "trick or treating" both girls get to pick what ever candy they want. We never eat any of the treats when we are outside, but when we get home we exchange the "unsafe" candy with the "safe" candy. It works out great. - Earlier today we went shopping and both girls got candy there. I actually had a couple of Skittle treat bags with me and we swapped the candy right away when we got back to the car. It is so wonderful to see that the girls have no problem with that. Both of them know that they cannot eat candy with "Kuhsmilch" and they happily give it up for something they like...

Happy Halloween everybody. I would love to hear from you.
