We Skyped with the San Diego kids last night: Richard-the-younger was going dressed up as an NFL ref. Parker was going to be a football player, his mom cheerleading him on.

And Hudson, sweet child, was to be the stuffing in a then-limp fuzzy fleecy football they held up to the camera.

A side note: I had to go to the doctor today to get the wax out of my ears that had been stopping up my hearing aids. Lots of it.

The male nurse asked me what I was knitting as I put it away.

It took half a heartbeat to realize that no way was I going to take his time to explain what a cowl was. I simply said, A scarf, and hoped he didn’t notice it was pretty darn short for that and I was almost out of yarn.

(Two hours left of) Happy Halloween!

Edited to add tonight’s newly-arrived photo, and wondering if the football survived the diapers. Cousins! (Wow what a difference three months make. Hudson, left, here, Hayes on the right.)

Parker may well be big enough to play football, but I’m not sure that is a good idea. Hudson and Hayes — like the Happy Sad clown faces.

That’s EXACTLY what I thought while reading and having seen that photo – uh-oh!! Did the football costume not survive?

Oh, I so wanted to see the football costume, that would have been adorable. But wait, I got to see really adorable times two, so why am I complaining???

Darling little pumpkins even if one of them is a little sad. Kisses!
