We had a great Halloween weekend with you! We did Boo at the zoo on Friday night, Trunk or Treat at church on Sunday and then neighborhood trick or treating tonight.
Side note that I don't want to forget: On the way to Boo at the zoo we were talking about names that people call their grandparents (like you have grandmommy, grandaddy, and grammy bec). We asked you what you thought you might want your kids to call us one day. Your response was awesome. When we become grandparents, we will be Uncle Herrick and Anna! Where do you come up with this stuff?!? We love your brain and spirit!
We are back in the swing of things and busy, busy, busy! Between work, school, and church we rarely have down time lately, but for the first time in a long time we are really plugged into a community. You have great friends through church and school as do Daddy and I. We have family close by and our out of town family travels well so we see them a lot. God really knew what he was doing when he sent us to South Carolina! We hope you will enjoy growing up here for years to come!
Videos of you lately: the first one is your first soccer game. You LOVE soccer and are really good! The second is of your testing your new shoes for a fashion show at church this week. Forgive me for posting, since you are in your underwear, but you are too cute!
Favorite things right now:
best friend: Gretchen
foods: you eat all the time! You especially love bread (quesadilla rolls) lolipops, pizza, apples, cheerios, quesadillas, chips, and baby bell mini cheese.
to do: play in your playroom and create parties for everyone to attend; have dance parties, watch ipad movies and tv shows
to say: sight words. You are sounding out and "reading" three letter words, you also repeat phrases that you hear us say all the time such as "I can hardly believe it", "Bless her heart", etc.
to go: zoo, Aunt Stacey and Uncle Mitch's house
your personality: all kindness all the time! You recently got upset with me for being "mean" to someone on the phone. When I explained that this person was trying to scam me by pretending to be an IRS agent and get my social security number to steal money from me, you said "Mom. It doesn't matter. You should be nice to everyone and I never want to hear you be mean to anyone on the phone again." You have such a sweet and gentle soul and you are so right. We should be kind no matter what. Always stay true to that.
wearing: fake glasses each day. The first time you wore them you told me that you looked like a "wearian." When I asked what you meant you said "you know, like the ladies who give out books." You meant librarian and look like such a precious librarian in your glasses that you wear EVERYWHERE lately.
