Halloween in the Neighborhood

Halloween is around the corner and I was remembering a halloween a few years back. Bobby boy was 2 or 3 yrs old and little miss Haana was 10 or 11. Me and little miss Haana were dressed up as witches and Bobby toddler boy was a cow. He was super cute. We three were trick or treating in our neighborhood. We went to a house that had a large ghost outside, it was across from a little park. While little miss Haana and I went past to ring the bell, at some point Bobby decided he didn't want to go near the ghost. So he took off running into a park. Miss Haana pointed it out to me. "Mumma, a cow is running away in the grass". I turned to look, a cow was running lose in the grass. It was so comical, I called out "Bobby! Come back", but I was doubled up laughing. Soon enough both Haana and I were running behind the cow and coralling him back to us! 

"Till the cows come home" - got a new meaning that halloween for me!!

Boss Baby and Dulce

Long time back gugu and I used to watch Boss baby. Once, Boss Baby was running away from an evil kitten. The kitten was catching up. In a pinch Boss Baby closed his eyes, expecting to instantly become invisible. But the kitten caught him easily. It was quite comic. But in this exchange Boss Baby realized that when he closes his eyes others can still see him and in fact, he doesn't turn invisible. "Mommy is a dirty liar", he said with vengeance when he realized. 

Dulce doggy has been told the same lie. He thinks if he looks the other way and closes his eyes, others cannot see his giant body on top of the bed! Poor dulce - someone has been a dirty liar to him!!

The paws think they are still baby.

Donkeys

Heard this week between bobby and me -

Bobby - Mumma I want one more video
Mumma - No way! No more video Bobby.
Bobby - Then I'll punch you. 
Mumma - I'll take both your hands, tie them up and feed them to the donkeys. 
Bobby - (chuckles, then..) There are no donkeys in our town. 
Mumma - Giggling
Bobby - giggling uncontrollably!!


Look Under the Tree, Dulce

Heard this week while I was working from home this week.. next to me is a reading nook by the window overlooking the front yard.
"Dulce, look under the tree, Dulce!"
"Dulce, not there, not there. Under the tree!"

I turned from my work table and saw my sweet doggo sprawled and spread all along the length of the slim reading nook, which he's convinced was custom created with his dimensions in mind. On top of him is the now 5 year old bobby, also sprawled all along the length of Dulce, no part of him actually touching the reading nook. And he was leaning on Dulce, looking out the window, asking him to look at some tree bush or a random bunny!

Dulce, being the sweetest doggo on the planet, tried hard to look at whatever bobby was telling him about!

Tablets

Bobby boy was playing with my tablets that I eat as candy substitute! 
Earlier he used to taste them and put them back in the bottle (yuck). Today i heard him say, "Come out Remington". When I asked him he told me, it was him, Humza and Remington - 3 tablets. He had just rescued Remington from the depths. But then I asked him he needs to add me too. Then more tablets were added! There was Haana, Mumma, Papa and even Dulce!!
Captured the moment!
