Last night, we started what we hope will be a Halloween tradition for our family. Since we live where it can be 80+ degrees in October, we have to wait until the last minute to carve our pumpkins. So last night we have a pumpkin night. We had bacon and pumpkin pancakes (both flavored and shaped) for dinner. Then we carved out pumpkins and watched the Charlie Brown special The Great Pumpkin on TV. As long as ABC cooperates and shows it every October 30th at 8, I think we will try to do this every year. It was really fun. And Carson didn't know he was eating pumpkin in his pancakes!
And, oh my gosh, what were people thinking letting Sabrina go on Dancing. Now, how is a woman going to win. I must admit I am pulling for Jenny, but I don't know if she can do it.
I will try to get some pictures from last night and tonight up tomorrow. I am sure I will have a zillion!

Sandy, what a GREAT idea!! And thanks for the tips on the feeding. You're a genius!!! I tried feeding him formula with a spoon today and he cried his eyes out too. So, I think you're right. I think it's the process that's a problem. My plan is to keep trying 2x's a day until Friday. That will make it exactly 1 week that we tried 2 types of cereal. If he is still crying his eyes out, I think I'll wait a week and then try again. Thanks for the tips!!! I can't wait to see your kis in their costumes!!

What a great tradition to start!! I love that idea!
Have you seen Jerry Seinfield's wife's cookbook? She's all about sneaking veggies into foods (like pumpkin or sweet potatoes into pancakes) and kids (and daddies) don't even know they're there!! Way to go on the pumpkin pancakes!
My doc prescribed a nosespray and an anti-histamine for Izzy. She does this funny breathing thing and he thinks that swollen adenoids may be contributing to that and the frequent nightwaking. I haven't filled the anti-histamine yet, but will definitely try it during the day as a couple of meds like that have WIRED Izzy in the past. If she'll nap after she's had it, I'll try it at night. I'll let you know if it works! Let me know if you hear any good ideas!!
