The air purifier is remarkable... I notice a huge difference, largely because I walk into my house and I smell.... nothing. Which of course, makes me wonder exactly what the house smelled like before.... but I'm definitely noticing a complete absence of smell.

It's pretty large and isn't very attractive, but it definitely does the job! For Christmas, I'm thinking maybe some lights and ornaments will help?? Nah, probably still won't fool the kids... they'll still want the tree up.
Reagan still isn't eating enough during the day to get her through the night. She still eats twice per night... usually once around midnight and then again at 4 or 5. Two nights ago, she ate at 3 and 8, which was incredible!! Something like that would definitely be an improvement as to how much sleep Mike and I are getting! One thing that has been WONDERFUL this week is.... our first week since she was born with no doctor's visits whatsoever! If all goes well, she won't have anything until her ENT appointment on November 8th, and her 4-month well visit on November 19th.
In other nighttime news, Ryan is having some trouble lately with wetting the bed and then wanting to sleep with us since his sheets are wet, so I got him this chart and hopefully that will help motivate him!
Ryan had a blast Trick-or-Treating with some friends this past Friday.
He's actually going to be Jupiter for the "real" Trick or Treating but in this case, his costume would have been ruined because it was trick or treating in a strip mall with about 9,000 kids. Violet's (the cutest iced donut ever!!) mother offered to take him so that RK didn't end up out in the cold while being sick and I was so thankful!!! Ryan had a wonderful time, which was really important to me since sometimes, it's hard to give him all the attention he deserves and wants.
We also spent some time on Saturday with Mike's uncle and his wife from South Carolina... and they brought their new 10 week old puppy, Otis!
He is part Border Collie, part St. Bernard, so he is going to be very big!! Ryan loved playing with him while Reagan watched.
Sunday morning started off with brunch, cooked by Daddy and Ryan! The kids were chilling out in diapers until it was time to get dressed and head off to the NASA Goddard Visitor's Center.
Ryan says, "Cheese!!!" Reagan loves her Robeez that we found at Once Upon a Child!

Playing around in the gift store
Ryan had $15 that he was allowed to spend for the day. In the gift shop, he chose a space shuttle, a bouncy ball, and a parachute rocket, all of which just so happened to total $14!! Ryan is an excellent shopper with very discerning taste.
After the Space Center, it was off to Ruby Tuesdays for lunch and Red Velvet cupcakes for dessert!!
