Christmas Tree Hunt 2011

Christmas Tree Hunt 2011 was a success!!!

Not a happy trip for everyone but we did it and have a tree so it was successful!!!

It was cold and both kids weren’t to happy with the trip, they both kept tripping on stumps so we had a few falls and dirty knees, it was really muddy!  Lauren helped pick out a tree, while Connor fussed pretty much the whole time because he wanted to carry the saw or push the cart, which kept getting stuck. As you can see in the pictures we finally let him hold the saw for a while, he sure is a stubborn little guy. 

 We plan to decorate the tree tonight – more pictures coming soon!

 

Halloween 2011

Halloween 2011 was a huge success!!!!!!!!!

Lauren was a Zebra and Connor was a logger and they got tons of candy!!!

Lauren ran up to every house with her cousins and Connor tried to keep up.  Connor was rediculously cute! He insisted on walking the whole time and threw a fit if anyone tried to pick him up or touch his candy bucket.  So he pretty much made every other house since he couldnt keep up with the big kids, but he scored big while he was there.  He would get up to the door and say knock knock and then stick his basket out for a very long time, so long that they would just keep giving him candy until he left.  At most houses they gave him candy about three times before he would look at them and then his bucket and then turn around and walk away.  His basket was so heavy he was dragging it behind him and kicking it along, but he wouldnt let anyone touch what he calls his Chocky (Chocolate). 

The only good picture with Lauren - she wouldnt wear the zebra head most of the night.

Connor With his costume on and preparing for the streets by eating some chocky (kit kats are his favorite!)

Connor the house cleaner?....

Connor is growing up to be quite the little helper. 

He is obsessed with the vaccum cleaner and loves to use it. 

 He actually does an ok job too.

October & Pumpkins!

Here is a cute video of Lauren & Connor riding a pony. 

We go to a pumpkin party up at the Clark's in Enumclaw every year and

Lauren has wanted to ride the pony but been too scarred for the last 3 years. 

This year she finally did it.

  Connor didnt last to long, but I dont think he was scarred just didnt seem interested. 

They also got to pick out a bunch of pumpkins to take home, get candy out of a hay stack,

feed the horses and ride behind an ATV. 

They now think enumclaw is pretty cool.

First Day of Preshool

 

Connor was all ready to go to!

Lauren loves playing with the big kids and going with them to the bus,

only a few more years and she'll be on the bus too!

She did great at preschool, she said she only cried for a little bit and commented on how the other kids weren't good at sharing even when she said please (she acted shocked).  I guess there was an issue over a glue stick and someone not sharing with her, but Lauren said dont worry mom I'll teach that mean girl how to share and say please and thank you, im interested to see how that goes. Shes going twice a week and she even had homework for her all about me poster.  Hopefully she keeps having fun! 

Connor is still the biggest boy he can be, he loves to get dirty and make boy noises.  He can copy a lot of words and answers questions by noding his head yes or no.  He can also tell you when he has an icky diaper and goes and gets a new one for you, I see potty training coming in a few months! yikes!
