halloween is almost here and matt and i have done nothing to prepare. we haven't even eaten anything pumpkin flavored, or bought miniature candy bars. we really need to get cracking. we need to figure out our costume and pumpkin carving ideas. we are excited to dress up chet. we used to love dressing up tank, but he has kind of taken the back seat since chet came along.
hmm...i wonder if people would catch on to our selfish motives to collect candy for ourselves if we took chet out trick-or-treating this year?
speaking of chet, he is getting so close to sitting on his own. it's very exciting. another exciting thing is that his hair is coming in quite nicely now. it's hard to see it in pictures cause it's so fair, but i swear it's looking oh, so handsome. something nice that chet does now is he holds his own bottle. now we don't have to construct a crazy bottle propping contraption when he wants to eat at inconvenient times!
below is a link for a video of chet. this video isn't too exciting, but you are welcome to watch it. i'm thinking chet's grandparents and other family might like it the most...
i am quite confident that chet is going to grow up to be a 'great guy'. because everyone who knows a chet, other then my chet, tells me something like 'oh, i have an ol' buddy named chet. he is great guy!'. i've never heard of a bad chet. so looks like we picked a good name after all.
there is this new tv show on mtv called 'the seven'. i haven't ever watched a full episode, but the idea of the show is that they tell you the top seven things you need to know about celerity gossip for that day. really important stuff! they also have different celebrities quickly list seven things they couldn't live without. sooo matt and i tried listing our seven things. (we exempted people, gospel related things, and literal things - like air - or else the list would be too predictable).
MATT's LIST
war movies
q-tips
nose picking
big-macs
a nearby toilet
mellow music
susan boyle (he just ran out of ideas on this one).
PAM's LIST
diet coke
sweat pants
bed buddies (that is what i call a wheat bag that you heat in the microwave).
my ipod
toothbrush
milk chocolate chips
you can tell me what your list would be, if you'd like.
a writer for the school paper wrote this article last week. it caused quite the ka-fuffle on campus. there were many mean letters to the editor in the paper this week! matt and i have thought of so many cutting comments to write to her, but have resisted posting any of them...so far!
