happy halloween!
we went to boo at the zoo and had lots of fun trick-or-treating! We were superheroes this year! Batman and Super Maddox!
Lake...lately
- we are often told "you're my best friend". He can quickly take that back when you tell him something he doesn't like though.
- he came home saying the entire Pledge of Allegiance on 10/6. Perfectly
- when he asks for something, he'll often say "may you get me ....". It's pretty cute.
- he saw our wedding picture and asked me if I was a princess.
- he sneaks into our room and falls asleep in our bed after we put him down. we hear little feet running above us when he does.
- he loves puzzles
- he's learning to read and write. he's been able to write his name for a few months now. and he's definitely left-handed. but seems to be right-handed when it comes to sports.
- he is so big now. most size 4 clothes will fit him but he needs size 5 from certain stores.
- when he is tired, watch out. he becomes totally irrational. straight to bed it is!
- when he is getting tired, if he's standing, he'll say his leg hurts. If he's sitting, he'll say he doesn't feel good. this is pretty routine now. so if his leg ever really hurts or he doesn't feel good, he better have a fever or something!
- He's becoming more sensitive to comments. Like teasing and stuff. Playful teasing will sometimes hurt his little feelings. I've noticed some of this at school too like about silly things...one girl kept telling him to be quiet or something and had kept doing it because it was bothering him. When he saw me walk in, he immediately burst into tears and started crying to me about it.
- we got him a big boy bike recently. does a pretty good job with it!
- he is so sweet and especially at bedtime. Always wants you to sleep with him or lie there and hold his hand while he falls asleep. He always has such a sweet little smile on his face.
I adore both of my little boys!

little maddox
he certainly keeps us entertained!
- when he's proud of himself, like he threw something away, he'll say, "I did it!". -- he must have all boo boos kissed before they are better...even the invisible ones.
- He and Lake terrorize the dog every morning when they come down. They chase her and squeal as loud as they can. Poor girl, she's pretty old now.
- He still LOVES books. Loves them!
- He's been singing Baa Baa Black Sheep randomly lately. He must have learned it at preschool.
- He went through the "terrible" part of the twos pretty quickly. He's a pretty good listener now, but I still avoid stores with the kids if I can help it! I had to take them in Publix together recently. No kid carts with steering wheels so they both walked. Maddox touched everything, but he didn't throw a tantrum on the positive side!
- He practically changes his own diaper now. Well, not really but he'll take it off and throw it away before bath. He knows what to do on the potty but I'm procrastinating on potty training.
- He learned to ride his tricycle in the past month.
- He's a cuddler. Even his teachers' will say this. If he doesn't want to lie down right away after we read our books, he'll immediately flip over and lay on my shoulder and snuggle. That buys him a few more minutes anyway! and he still sleeps with about 4 blankets and 6 stuffed animals.
