pumpkin carving and scholastics

Tonight we carved our Halloween pumpkin, it was a lot of fun. Jasper had a blast gutting it.
First he was making funny faces feeling how slimy it was then just dug in.

In other news I attended my first Parent-Teacher Conference which for the most part was a good experience. Jasper is excelling, as I thought he would, academically, and learning a lot about the social end of school.

It's been a year since Elise passed, hard to believe. She is still in my thoughts as I'm sure she is in all of yours. We miss ya Elise!

ugh

Man, Jasper and I spent the last week really sick. I had to have him out of school for a whole week, hated doing it but couldn't send him in like that.
We have been recovering though and are almost back to 100%. So back to the grind I guess.
