Life with a 3 year old!
















The past week has been a learning experience for pur family! Shandra has learned she has to share and not be the baby and she actually did very well! Yeah Shandra! Her patience is a little shorter than Jerrick and Daesha's but it has been a good week for her! Jerrick has had fun with another boy in the house, but otherwise he is just doing the same as any other day. He doesn't let anything bother him! Daesha wants to hold and cuddle Kaysen but he won't have any of that so she basically does her own thing also! Kaysen has had to learn to share and go to bed and basically survive in our chaotic world but he has done very well, considering we are constantly running here and there. He has had a few play dates with neighbors and has enjoyed himself and wants to play with Bella, Eli , and Joe everyday! I have had to relearn that germs and dirt don't kill anybody and especially not little boys who don't wash their hands and then touch me. I have also learned that crust on bread is a bad thing. Chocolate milk from the bunny(Nestle) isn't as good as chocolate milk from the store, everything that a three year old says has some truth to it but isn't necessarily all true. For example, Uncle John didn't yell at Kaysen and push him down , but told him to lay down and put him on the bed. Anyway we had a very fun couple of weeks and I'm sure everyone will miss Kaysen when he is gone.

Halloween





































the kids were very excited for Halloween this year because they were able to celebrate 2 days. On Thurday they had a Halloween parade and party in their classes at school. Jer and Shan both participated ,but poor Daesha was sick and throwing up so she had to miss the class parties. She was able to participate in all the Halloween activities on Friday because it was only a 24 hour bug. The kids all wanted to dress scary and not cutesy so Daesh dressed as a scary pirate, Jerrick was the grim reaper, and Shan was a vampiress. I thought they all looked cute!
