Feeling better, and a new Halloween costume

Last Friday, Nico woke up feeling a lot better. He was able to get out of bed and sit/stand/walk around. He ate breakfast and by all accounts he was all better! His first order of business after eating breakfast was trying on his Halloween costume.

It fits!

I took him to his doctor's appointment that day for his foot.

Besides it being dry and flaky, he has a huge bump on the bottom that they said was a wart. The doctor froze it off! She told him to raise his hand whenever the pain got too much to bear, and they did it 3 times. She said he will likely need to come back again to get it re-done because it is so big.

On Saturday, Guy drove to Nampa to pick up the tv that GG gave us. It was the one she used to have before she moved. It's huge! Thank you GG! While in Nampa, Guy stopped by a gluten free restaurant that just opened. They sell donuts on Saturday and he bought one of each type for us to try. He had to wait so long for the chocolate donuts that they gave him two. Nico's favorite was the twist donut.

Nico had a chess tournament on Saturday. He got a 1st place trophy, and he won the prize for best costume!

Trying out his Switch on our new TV

Rough draft TV Stand setup.

Wednesday we had a parent teacher conference. We both LOVE his teacher. She is my favorite by far of the teachers he's had. She said a few days ago that Nico took over teaching the class about what "scale" means on maps. He stood up in front and brought out a ruler to demonstrate on the huge map at the front. He asked her if he could stay up there to teach the whole lesson and she said, well, No. Heehee.

No school today and tomorrow! Nico had scrambled eggs and toast for breakfast this morning.

After lunch we put together our new TV stand.

This afternoon, Allicia picked Nico up and took him to the Farmstead with the other kiddos. Guy met them there tonight because our church is doing the corn maze.

Here's a condensed video of the Trailing of the Sheep parade, plus some video of Nico walking around in his Halloween costume. I left the entire sheep part of the parade in the video, you'll see sheep passing by for 1 minute and 20 seconds. The rest of the parade part of the video is just snippets of the other acts that passed by.
