That's enough

It's not always fun to be a parent, or to be a kid. A stomach bug swept through the Honeycutt-Dill household last week, and we had some pathetic kids. The most pitiful moment of the illness was when Hazel, in the middle of throwing up, proclaimed, "That's enough. That's enough. That's enough."

Lots of sleep, lots of screen time, and lots of hot wash laundry.

Campaign messages we can all agree on

Juniper: "I agree with Barack Obama that you should not put your feet on the table. Or spit at other people."

 

Happy Halloween

It would be hard to overstate Juniper's excitement about Halloween this year. 

 Office Thomas, Hazel the Duck, and Juniper the Friendly Witch all had a very good time trick or treating. (Though there was one wolf costume that made Hazel cry. She calls it a teddy bear and is still talking about it.)

Hazel was confused by mama's makeup, but she did describe it as "fancy."

Hazel stole the show this year. Lots of people commented that she was the cutest thing they'd seen all night, and at least one woman called her husband out to take a look at Hazel after we'd left their porch.

 Hazel enjoyed getting "presents" from all the houses we visited.

Toddlers with lollipops are gross.

Four-year-olds with  lollipops are also gross.

The witch leads the way.
