I spent Saturday and Monday inhaling the last two books in the Twilight series: New Moon & Eclipse, which is bittersweet considering that the next volume doesn't come out for another year! Can I just say again: Edward- Yum! Though, I think my friend said it best when she remarked, "Edward...*sigh*..." I read that the series has knocked Harry Potter off the 1st place on the NY Times best seller list (quite an accomplishment, I think), so make sure to check it out if you're into romance with a distictly dangerous, and may I say, cannibalistic flair.

Also high on my priority list this week has been Sterling's costume. He wanted to be Max from Where the Wild Things Are. I bought a children's sleeper pattern and endeavored to modify it. Anyone well aquainted with me knows I am not a sewer! My mom was a Ginormous help! If not for her, I would have had some serious issues down the line considering I had already sewn the back to the front all wrong! Well, that, and I would have given up in despair! Thanks to her, Sterling can now "roar his terrible roar and gnash his terrible teeth and roll his terrible eyes and show his terrible claws" all he wants! ----Even if his costume slightly resembles a giant snow bunny with a fox tail... I'll post pictures from tonight's Ward Trunk & Treat later.

Where the Wild Things Are was one of the books I got to read with my four- and five-year olds this summer. We would read each book twice, and the second time we did this one, we'd have a WILD RUMPUS!
I can't wait to see pictures of Sterling in his wolf suit ("making mischief of one kind and another"?).
