This year Connor decided to carve a scorpion on his pumpkin. Kaiden wanted to wing it and just carve a "scary monster face" into his pumpkin. Then he decorated the other side of his pumpkin with our plastic push on face pieces. I decided to carve Jack from Nightmare before Christmas. Jason watched football again this year while we carved. Then he let Kaiden decorate his pumpkin with push on face pieces. Connor is such a sweet big brother. He showed his little brother how to carve and Kaiden was so excited to finally get the chance to carve his own pumpkin "all by himself." Jason put our scare crow together while we finished.
My sweet little sleeping boy. When Kaiden wants to be really strong he says he has to use his "baby strength" which he got from Connor saying he has baby muscles. Kaiden thinks this gives him extra strength. Sometimes when I tell him something instead of saying Okey Dokey, which he's heard us say before he says "Dokey Dokey." Kaiden is such a funny kid. He keeps us laughing. Connor is such a sweet and kind boy. He melts my heart. He has such amazing patience for his little extremely loud, active brother. Connor has a new girlfriend this year- Allison B. (Ali) She had a crush on Connor last year, but this year the feeling is mutual. They ride the bus together and trade mini hatchimals. Connor is still into Lego's, drawing Pokemon that he creates, and playing games on the ipad. He occasionally plays the Wii, but he's not a big gamer. He's so creative and would rather draw or create his own Lego creation instead. Luckily he still thinks his "fangs" are awesome... which is great since the dentist does not want him to get braces for another few years. Kaiden still likes Paw Patrol, but now PJ Masks is his favorite cartoon. He also likes a puppy show too. And of course Daniel Tiger. Kaiden is so loud. I must tell him a dozen times a day to use his inside voice and be quieter. It's not that he yells or screams. He just gets so excited that he talks too loud. It doesn't help that his little voice is still high pitch too. He's still a bundle of energy. But he does like to sit at the table and play with play doh, clay, paint. He loves crafts. He says he wants to be a Nurse Fire Fighter when he grows up. He likes to check out any cuts, scrapes, blood. Piper is starting to settle down too. I still need to remind her not to jump when I answer the door and occasionally when she gets excited. But she's starting to stay down more. She still likes to chew, but now she chews on her toys. She's not chewing on us as much now. And even when she does it doesn't hurt since her baby teeth are gone. The adult teeth are much better! The only time she really barks is when she's really excited and trying to get us to play with her. Other than the occasional bark, jump or chewing on us she's really settling down and becoming a good dog. She's not suppose to shed, but she's loosing her baby coat so currently we find little while hair everywhere. She's not allowed on the furniture/beds, etc. but we find it on the dark wood floor. She's great in the car, loves to travel. She just sits down and chills. You can't even tell she's in the car! She loves the boat and motor home too. She loves to camp, swim, hike... we're still working on running. She walks on a leash great, but the whole running thing confuses her and she either poops (on the treadmill) or tries to cross in front of me and trip me (outside). She's great at fetching a ball and Frisbee.
