sirus

such a cutie. not sure if i told the story of how he was out running around with eric and seamus. apparently he had a hard time keeping up and told eric his legs were too short and that he needed new ones.
i went to an auction the other day. i got sirus a kick bike, a tiny little bike that has no pedals. it is much smaller then the bike seamus already has and with sirus's little legs he won't be ready to try her bike for a long time. i lost out the bidding on the blue bike, so he wound up with a pink one. it was a fundraiser for the breast cancer fund and he likes pink anyway...
the next morning after both kids discovered the bike, seamus came up to me while i was getting ready for work. she gave me a hug and said "thank you for getting sirus his own little bike". i thought it was so sweet. then another 10 minutes later sirus came up gave me a big head and said "mommy, thank you so much for my new bike". i wanted to cry. those kids are so sweet. i asked eric if he prompted him to do it and he said no.
it reminded me of when we went to NY the kids stayed at grandma and grandpas. i had taken all of the trains that sirus didn't take with him and lined them up on his night stand. when we got home from picking them up, about 5 days later, he went into his room and was practivally speechless - he said "oooh mommy! thank you so much for my trains!". he is just so adorable. today he is losing his voice. his little voice is so adorable right now.
yesterday at dinner seamus asked me if i lost weight. that made me laugh.
yesterday i ran almost 10 miles with feather. i vented to her the entire time about all the shiat that has been going on. apparently i have been holding alot in because i bitched for the whole 10 miles straight, and the run went by so quick! it was incredible!!
pain in the neck and jaw is still there but a bit intermittent. i have been taking advil and getting massages and such and its been working somewhat. i feel better for the most part.
halloween is this weekend and i can't wait. the kids went to the halloween carnival at seamus's preschool on saturday. seamus was so excited to go she could hardly contain her self. i made sirus some superman pants. he was so excited to wear them but he did not want to wear the superman red shorts over top of them. he got over that. seamus wore her wig and blue eye shadow and some little red gems glued to her face. the carnival involved 7 or so stations and at each was a little game like tossing bean bags or rings onto a target of some sort. after they completed each they got a prize. the kids loved it. they collected all of their prizes and then spent the afternoon and evening practicing trick-or-treating. very funny stuff.
