Happy Halloween!

Jace
We had a photographer come over on Friday morning to take some fall family photos. I was very cooperative but Bella was a bit cranky. We took some by the creek and I helped by making Bella laugh. Mama finished our costumes during nap, then when I woke up mama and I got dressed up as ninja turtles and met miss Tami and Maren at the fall festival they had at church. We were one of the first ones there, so we didn't have to wait in line to ride the pony or go in the bounce house. We had lots of fun, and then went inside to dance to a band that was playing. We played a bean bag toss game then went out for Mexican food for dinner. Maren and I were super silly at dinner, but we did eat or dinners eventually. We all got dressed up as ninja turtles and went to uncle Nick's house for their annual Halloween party. We played lots of fun games there and there were lots of friends there to play with. My favorite game was trying to get a marshmallow that was hanging from a string with no hands. My opponent was Hayes and we both got our marshmallows. I had lots of sword fights and was a bit crazy there. We put our pjs on before heading home, but stayed awake all the way home. We went to church on Sunday and I remembered my memory verse and got another prize. I also got a new one to learn this month. We went to the video store and rented a couple of movies that I have been wanting to see, and after nap mama made popcorn and we all watched 101 Dalmatians. Mama worked Monday and Tuesday and daddy took us to workout, the park and baby story time so we could get new library books.We had lots of fun with daddy and met mama for lunch one of the days. On Wednesday we all went to Medford for Bella's preop appointment with her Dr. After that, we went to mucho gusto and got my favorite burrito. On Thursday we went to the dentist and I was a big boy and sat I the big chair all by myself without any tears. I got a bouncy ball for being a good boy. After we left the dentist, we went to aunt Lori and uncle Nick's house to play and help out because auntie Lori's mama is very sick. Mama made tacos for dinner then we drove home. Friday we went to workout and then did chores at home before papa and grandma came. We played and made dinner while daddy and mama went on one last hunt behind the house. They didn't have any luck though. The next morning, we took papa and grandma to the airport. There was a pile of snow that fell off of someone's car in front of the airport and we had a snowball fight:) we said goodbye, then went to home depot to build a fighter jet.

I ate a big breakfast before pictures on Friday, but I was still hungry and a bit tired so I didn't smile much. I stayed home with daddy on Friday evening because we both had the sniffles and needed the rest. I did go to the Halloween party at uncle Nick's and I loved my costume, especially my tutu. I played most of the games, but loved hitting the pinata the best. I almost hit some other people with the bat because I was so proud of myself that I spun around smiling. I used my foam weapon to play with the other kids while they were sword fighting. I was a good girl at church and kept wanting to put on my tutu from my costume when I got home. I didn't watch much of the movie, but I sure enjoyed the popcorn! I had a little separation anxiety at workout and called for daddy a lot while he was working out. I had lots of fun playing and getting wet at the park. On Tuesday, daddy took me to babies and wobblers at the library and we sang lots of songs and had a good time. When we went to the Dr on Wednesday, I didn't cry this time, but daddy was there to sit next to me while mama asked questions and sign papers. I had lots of fun playing with Shea and Kenzi's babies at uncle Nick's house. I ate a big dinner and slept on the way home. I got a few time outs for screaming and for throwing toys,  but I was excited to see papa and grandma when they got here. We played ring around the Rosie and I thought it was super silly. I stayed home with daddy and took a nap while mama and Jace took them to the airport.
