the big, bad mouse!!

i was awoken this morning to rex's terrifying scream followed by "I SEE IT!" followed by hysteric sobs. neal was downstairs in the kitchen with him since he got up at 5am and wouldn't go back to sleep. he had seen a mouse peeking out from behind the stove! he refused to eat the rest of his breakfast and was horrified for the rest of the day, all the way up until bedtime, where he couldn't sleep because of the mouse. he's seen the mouse a few times but this time it looked at him and his "little black eyes" spooked him.

we had an indoor scavenger hunt after school. the kids had to find items that fit the descriptions. it was fun!!

in other news: malloy lost her fourth tooth!!! 

my little jack-o-lantern!
