Hats and Costumes!

When I wrote the blog yesterday, I forgot one of the most important parts of our afternoon routine - getting the mail! As soon as the boys get up, we all trek up the driveway and cross the street to the mailbox (a great opportunity to learn to look both ways, although there is almost never a car coming.)


Yesterday, there was a package that arrived from Derrick's sister Stephanie! We love packages and cards, and this time of year have received many. It was all I could do to convince Scott to wait until after dinner to open the present. There was no hope of waiting a full 16 days for his actual birthday!


She gave the boys costumes that she made and they love them. Here is a picture of Scott wearing the Cat in the Hat hat.




And Andrew received a vampire/bat costume, which Scott loves to wear as well. He loves capes and anything that has a cape is a hit in his book.




And, finally, here is the promised picture of the new nightcap. One thing is for certain, his head will never be cold (unless we are at the table eating. We strictly enforce the "no hats at the table" rule).
