Maddy's Little Accident

Last Friday was the night we were invited to go to a "How to Host a Murder" party. You are given a character to dress up as and everyone in the party has to participate or the game won't work. All of our kids were being babysat next store. In the middle of our game we get a call from the babysitters saying that Maddy's head had been cut and we might want to go check on it. She had hit her face on Lennix's head. When we saw her we immediately knew this was no little cut, she had a huge open gash on her eye brow and she definitely was going to need stitches. We all had to stop the game and reschedule it for next week, which is horrible in its self, everyone had spent hours planning for that night. But everyone understood, and off we were to the emergency room dressed as cowboys. Maddy was pretty scared but we talked her through everything and prepared her enough we thought she would be OK and she seemed calm, but once she got in there with the doctors she cried and cried, she was so scared. Maddy is already so shy that all this attention would have been hard anyways, but on top of that she was going to get stitches in her face. We all had to hold her down, I had her arms and legs and Andy had her head. They had to put stitiches on the inside and out because it was so deep. Then half through the stitching I started to get dizzy and I warned the doctors that I was going to black out. The nurse had to carry me to my chair, Andy took over Maddy's arms and legs the nurse took her head and then Maddy freaked out even more because I was gone. I hadn't eaten since lunch and I am newly pregnant and I was watching a doctor sew up my daughters insides and it all came crashing down. Once I got some orange juice down me I was able to lean against Andy and hold Maddy's hand. Even though Maddy had numbing gel on the wound she had major bruising and so she still felt a lot of pain, so basically it was a horrible night for Maddy. We had left at 8pm and didn't get home until 12:30am, but she is fine now and doesn't seem to be too scarred. It was the craziest night ever.

Trick or Treating

This house does an amazing haunted house every year and the kids love it, actually it scares the kids to death but the parents enjoy watching the kids get scared. That random guy in the mask walks around just scaring people and playing with the kids.

Westland Trunk or Treat 2010

Spider Woman, Wonder Woman, and Cat Woman

They are there to defend the weak, except for Cat Woman she was kind of bad, but whatever.

Spider Woman

Maddie made the cutest Wonder Woman in the World.

The boots were a little too long, but it did make her more modest.

Cat Woman

This is Evie trying to hiss and growl like a kitty.

And this is her trying to put her hands on her hips and look like a strong super hero but it turned out looking awkward.

Those are some awesome crime fighting chicks.

Lennix and Brooklyn had to match, of course.

She took on her role very seriously.

The whole crime fighting team.

There were a lot of spidermans there that night. This is 3 out of four of the students in our preschool class, crazy huh.

Wonderful prizes from the fishing carnival game.

"Trunk or treat"
And Brooklyn was not needing to pee she said she was trying to pose cute.

Kori, Tori, and I. Tori looks really scary and Kori doesn't look that different actually, who were you trying to be again? ha ha

Andy and his YM. This is Hyrum and James, but you would not know that by just looking at them their costumes were crazy, especially Hyrums, his Avatar costume was awesome.

Austin and Andy just being themselves.

Spiderman and Bat Girl

Witch and Frankenstein (Lyndzi and Jeff)

Christmas Story Lamp and Box (Nate and Trinette)

They won best costume, and they deserved it.

Hunter and Deer aka Rudolph (Stephanie and Aaron)

Peter Pan, Wendy and Tinkerbell (Ben, Kacey, and Khloe)

The Witch Doctors (Peter and Sherrida)

A different twist on twister. You go body to body trying to hold up the rings, instead of body to mat. It was quite entertaining watching everyone do this. It almost looked like a dirty game, that's why I liked it though.

The hottest chicks at the party, Sally and a gender confused Robin.

Beau was too pregnant so Shannon had to get spiderman to help her play the game. Wow that was confusing.

The hunter and the deer gettin personal.

Batman and Jack just hangin out

The big mac and fries (the Crowleys)

The bumble bee and her flower (Sunni and Tyler)

Beau and Shannon (Shannon and Beau)
I have to say Shannon, during this pregnancy you have really let yourself go, I have heard of woman growing a little facial hair while their pregnant but this is just sad.

Batman and Robin the coolest duo at the party. Whoever came as batman looks really fine in that costume, I'm just sayin.

Batman was called away to help a damsel in distress and so he called his faithful side kick Robin and off they went to save the day.
