Apparently on your Birthday- it's ok to pick your nose.

John was a Halloween Baby.   Two years ago though, we came awfully close to having TWO Halloween babies.   Despite John's hopes, (and secret attempts to make me trick or treat with the kids until I went into labor,) it wasn't until early the next morning that Nate actually did arrive.    So now, we have a birthday on Halloween as well as a birthday the day after.     It makes the festivities extra hectic...and extra enjoyable!    It's like a double party, and nothing makes for a sugar high like having birthday cake and then going out and collecting  TONNE of candy from all the neighbors!  

 This year, as soon as we'd finished eating, and as the kids rushed around finding the remaining fragments of their costumes to put on - we paused to sing Happy Birthday to these two:
Conveniently Nate chose this moment out of the whole day- to pick his nose.  Of course right?    He apparently couldn't have even waited until after he blew out the candles.  Geesh!   
Days later, when I reviewed the photos on my camera, I wasn't the least bit surprised to see that their was not one single birthday shot that did not consist of him with his finger up his nose.  

Thanks Nate.    
Thanks a lot!

Bahahahaha! I love kids. :)

Thank you so much for your kind comments the other day. I agree, it's definitely a hard thing to go through -- thank goodness we don't have to go through life alone! :)
