Trick or Treat!

Levi had his first real experience with Trick or Treating tonight. His first stop was Great Grandma and Great Grandpa's house. He was pretty pumped about being a chicken and loved seeing Clara Kate dressed as a cow. He was hoping to teach her to moo, but that didn't quite happen. :) He enjoyed saying trick or treat for the Great Gs, so he tried going to one of the neighbor's houses after the great Gs house, but was scared off when he heard a dog bark and decided just to go back to the Great Gs house and try again. That seemed like more fun to him! All in all, it was a great halloween!

3 Months Already!!

My baby is 3 months already! This is crazy how fast time if flying! She is holding up her head (I am holding it in the picture because she was learning it back as she got herself all excited so I couldn't get the picture!) and enjoying sitting in the bumbo seat now, making silly noises with her tongue, laughing a lot with a rasping high pitch laugh, grabbing things, and loving watching her brother play and talk to her!

To Infinity and Beyond...

Levi got this Buzz Lightyear costume for christmas last year from Grandma, but he was too scared of it to want to even look at it! Now it is his favorite thing! He wants to put it on ALL the time and even likes to show it to Clara kate. His favorite part is that the wings light up! (That is what he is showing Clara Kate in the picture.)

Levi and Chief

Levi wanted me write that the horse's name is Chief! :)

Church Retreat

Levi thoroughly enjoyed the church retreat this weekend. He got to ride on a horse and a boat! That was definitely the highlight for him. He also got to play with church friends outside a lot and eat good food and use drink machines to get milk and juice which was quite the treat! Clara Kate isn't pictured since she couldn't even go on the boat ride becasue there wasn't a lifejacket small enough! She spent most of the weekend riding on my belly in the Moby.

Fall Fun

Levi always enjoys watering the flowers but this is a real treat because the flowers are in pumpkins! Instead of carving these, we decided to make them flower pots and Levi loves it. :)
He wasn't too sure about the messy pumpkin seeds though and wasn't too into that!

Clara Kate is waving "hola" to everyone. :) Big smiles are laughs. Levi loves to make her laugh and smile and wishes babies didn't need to sleep so much!

Three!

Levi turned 3 this week!! He decided that he needed to have 3 parties since he was turning 3 years old! He was pumped to help make cupcakes to take to his friends at church school and then enjoyed celebrating with a trip to Chick fil A and presents with his cousins and Grandma and then a night out with his mom and papi and Clara kate and presents! What a life for a 3 year old! He has been enjoying telling everyone that he is 3 years old now. He also thinks that he should take cupcakes to church school every day he goes now because his friends really enjoyed them. :)

Baptism

Clara Kate was baptised last sunday on 10/5. Levi was pumped to have his cousins and Grandma and Grandpa and Aunt Sally and Uncle Chris at church for the baptism. He asked today if they would be at church again this week, but I said no because it wasn't Clara Kate's baptism this week, so he decided that he would get baptised again himself so that they could come. I guess we need to work on our theology! :)

Hosptal Picnic and Sleepover!

Levi just had a great weekend with his cousins,Henry and Simon, going to a hospital picnic for Grandpa's hospital and sleeping over at Grandma and Grandpa's house with the boys! They even all slept in the same room! That was quite exciting for levi and his first real sleepover like that!! He played lots of games at the picnic and even got to ride on a horse drawn carriage!

He is getting pretty excited about turning 3 next week too. He decided on his own last week to give up his pacifier like his cousin Lily did when she turned 3. He decided to put them in Clara Kate's room so she could use them since he doesn't need them anymore. :) He is still enjoying church school and looks forward to Tuesdays and Thursdays when he gets to go, even picking out his clothes and putting them in the bathroom the night before like Papi does for his school.

He is also looking forward to Clara Kate's baptism at church tomorrow and seeing her wear her big white dress. He says, "that's SO cool, mom".
