Luke - 65 Months

Hi pals,
Things are busy these days.  I loved Disney World and cannot wait to go back. I think I really surprised Mommy and Daddy by how adventurous I was.  I rode just about every roller coaster like ride they had.  I can't wait to try other roller coasters in the future.  I practiced very hard this month for my school program for the Christmas show.  The kindergartners got to dress up as the nativity characters.  I was one of the 3 kings and got to carry one of the gifts in for baby Jesus.  I learned all the songs and sang them with lots of emotion despite having a very stuffy nose.  I'm happy that Christmas is just around the corner.  I'm not sure my list could get much longer.  What, 6 pages is too long?  I really want a bike, and a new skateboard, and legos and an iPad, and, and, and.  I'm still enjoying my music, watching big boy shows and helping Mommy and Daddy cook and clean up whenever I'm in the mood.  I do like to be helpful but I also LOVE messing with my brother.  I can rarely pass him without touching him in some way.  Most the time, this drives him nuts.  That's the point! It drives Mom and Dad crazy too so I've got to figure out a way to be more discrete and get away fast before Davis can hurt me.  He goes with violence first.  I'm more of a tattle-taler! I am obsessed with my Legos.  I make stuff all the time.  I like to put it all out on display until I run out of Legos and then I tear it down and start over.  Except, I have not and will not tear down my fort of Lego men.  They are my protection!
So don't mess with me or them!
Talk soon,
Luke

Davis - 43 Months

Hi all,

What a busy and fun month we have had.  I've been on my first plane ride, visited Florida, enjoyed Thanksgiving, sang in a school program, had a new cousin born (greetings Matthew Thomas) [technically Wren is also now born but she will have to be discussed in my 44 month update b/c that is when she was born], and decorated for Christmas at our house and at Mimi's house. I've had a good time watching football and reporting the scores to Mommy and Daddy.  I also like watching lots of big boy shows if Mom and Dad will let me, like, Beyblade, Power Rangers and sometimes even Pokemon.  No worries, I still like my sweet little boy shows too but I have to pick and choose because I can't watch TV all day no matter how much I beg.  Did you guys know that 3 year olds can talk back? Mommy did not know that but I've been setting her straight.  Consequently, she is now setting me straight.  I'm working on manners and not talking back.  It is tough but I'm giving it a try! I have picked up my Lego passion again and that is really all that I am asking for for Christmas this year.    I just keep telling everyone that I want LOTS of Legos.  Hope I get them.  I had a good report at the dentist again this visit.  So, I got to put my name in the No Cavity Club drawing.  I'm still the best person in our family at managing the Smurf game on the iPad and I am pretty good at all the other apps too.  I still wake up wondering about my hair and trying to brush it but as you can see above, I can let loose a little more than last month.  Have no fear, I promptly fixed this bed head after the picture was taken.

 Talk again soon,

D

Santa Claus Came to the Zoo

We went to the zoo this week and saw the Polar Express in 4-D and on our way to the theater we ran into this guy!

Luke Program and Class Party

Mommy and two other moms were in charge of my holiday party.  We had Chick Fil A, we made reindeer food and we made a snowman frame.  We also had a book exchange and got to decorate our own cookies for dessert.  Yum.  And I was so glad Mommy was there.  

I got a little backed up in the book exchange game.  I had to use two hands to catch up. 

We kindergartners got to act out the story of Jesus' birth.  

Here we are, the 3 Kings. 

I was the first king to get to walk in.  I took my job seriously and did some great singing at the program too!   And no worries, Daddy saw me as the king the day before.

Davis Class Party

We had a school Christmas program this month and we got to sing on stage with the big kids!

My 3 year old class! We are a great looking bunch of kiddos!

My Mimi came to see our program and to my class party.  Yay!

Daddy and Mommy came to my class party.  They served up Chick Fil A and fruit for us! We made reindeer food and ornaments and played pin the ornament on the Christmas tree! 

I'm so happy!
