Halloween Parties!

It seemed like this year we celebrated Halloween a lot. We got good use out of our costumes and we all had a lot of fun.
1st party - ADA Halloween celebration
2nd party- church
Kaiya brought her friend Rosa with
Ella invited Ms. Borgmann
Jett with the neighbor girl (he has a crush on her and her sister)
Cirdan was passing out candy and Cannon was eating the candy. Messy!
Gru, Lucy, Margo, Agnes and minions
3rd party - preschool
4th party - Halloween night - Carrington's house
These were the cool kids we hung out with. :)
Jett only lasted a minute (not even lying). Cannon would have stayed out there all night. 
The boys were exhausted and fell asleep right away
This is Kaiya protecting her candy. I am not even kidding. I tried to have a piece and she yelled at me and told me to get out of her room. Rude!

LOVES candy.  Climbs, sneaks, does whatever he can to find candy and eat.  Including going into Kaiyas room, figuring out how to get up in cabinets and pantry.

Recent months he is much more focused on activities and being creative.
He loves to play with his play doh, and now is very engaged in creating things with his play doh, shapes, animals.

He likes putting together puzzles.
Putting together legos and making something as opposed to just stacking them.

Actually loves clothes and gets excited to get new clothes and put his clothes on, he wants to look good.
Wants to dress himself. Actually insists on it. He also likes to pick out his own outfit and is proud of himself when he does.

Loves wrestling his brother, Jett is the instigator and peacemaker at the same time.  He'll punch cannon and run away, going on and on with this game.  He'll get a good shot on Cannon, and then hug and kiss him and apologize, then right back to fighting.  Brotherly love.

He's finally tall enough to ride his big wheel and he digs it.  Anything he can get on and ride, he's all about it.  
Great balance, he loves to climb and push the limits with his balance, he's a great climber and makes it look easy.  He can find a skinny ledge, like on a window or top of a couch and scale it with ease.

Does not like to be teased, he gets sensitive very quickly.  Doesn't like people laughing, he gets embarrassed real quick.

Went to Universal Studios again and loves the characters and again, especially Despicable Me, he calls it Universiary Studios.  Talks about California.  

He writes his name.  Counts pretty good up to 30,40,50
Knows his letters and the alphabet

Loves to try and add numbers.  He'll go on for 30 minutes talking about "4 + 20 is..." then answer himself or ask us or both.  He loves to try and add numbers

Likes talking to Siri on my iPhone and asking math questions, the biggest numbers he can think of.  Also likes to ask her if she knows each one of his family members.

He's into the good guy and bad guy thing, with characters and what not.  
Talks about police and catching bad guys

Likes transformers and understands the good guy, bad guy thing with auto bots,

Loves cars, trucks, planes, helicopters, trains.

Says the word super a lot.  For a little boy he talks about things being "super cute" quite a bit.  Probably a product of having big sisters.  

Tender little guy and loves to give hugs and kisses and likes to show mom and dad when he does.

Starting to like girls, he's a little ladies man.  Loves hanging out with his big sisters friends, the neighbor girls.  The little girls can't get enough of Jett and he's more than fine with that now.  As he says, it's super cute.

His favorite store is Target but we can't take him there because he insists on getting a toy every time. Don't give in to him but he still cries and it loud about it.

Loves Chuck E Cheese and the Bouncy Place.

Just finally got comfortable to be in Primary without Heidi. Except this past Sunday when they changed classes for the year. He is now back to not wanting to be left.

Loves Preschool and his teacher Ms. Ashlee.

Likes to tattle on Cannon (which is good for me).

Loves Kaiya and Kaiya loves him.

Can run super fast.

Very emotional. Whines and cries a lot. I love that he is sensitive but hope that the whining and crying stop in the near future. :)

A good eater. He takes his dinner and stuffs it in his mouth. I am surprised he doesn't choke.


Preschool Field Trip

Jett's preschool class went on a field trip to a pumpkin patch/farm.  I asked my mom to go help so that Cannon could go to (what was I thinking??). It rained big time as soon as we got out of the car but about 15 minutes later the rain let up and we just had to deal with cold/mud (which is standard around here in Washington).
Animals
Riding bikes
Tractor ride
I was afraid that Cannon would jump out but all was good and he stayed in the car

Bubbles
Jett LOVED riding the pretend horse. He would have sat there all day if I let him.
Hay
Learning
Swings
The Cannon monster
Popcorn
My mom jumped in there as soon as Cannon started throwing the popcorn. Thanks Mom!
It was finally time to pick the perfect pumpkin.
Preschool 2014/15
Thank goodness for this lady
Cannon was DONE. (notice the shoe flying off his foot)
As a family we didn't go to the pumpkin patch this year. I don't think we have for the past 6 years?!?! We jut ran out of time. I am glad that the boys experienced it and hopefully they had a lot of fun.
