One Year Older and Wiser Too!

Happy 3rd Birthday Scotty!


I can't believe that my baby boy is 3 years old today. He has grown up a lot and is always learning so much.












Some things about Scotty at 3 years old:


*He loves songs and music.

*He loves to act goofy with his daddy.

*He loves macaroni and cheese, apples, pears, scrambled eggs, sausage, pizza, and hot dogs.

*He likes Batman, Transformers, Iron Man, Superheroes, Thomas the Train, Wall-E, Space Chimps, and so many others.

*He likes to watch Super Why, Little Bear, Max and Ruby, Incredibles, Hoodwinked, Go Diego Go, Brother Bear, Polar Express, Care Bears, Strawberry Shortcake and many others.

*He is very sensitive to other people's feelings. When another kid is sad and starts crying, Scotty sometimes joins in.

*He is trying to use the potty but is sometimes stubborn and just doesn't want to do it.

*He likes to be independent and sometimes tells mommy and daddy NO!!

*He likes to race but HAS to "win" every time or he gets sad.

*He is a big boy and everyone always thinks that he is older than he is.

*He loves to play with other kids.

*He likes to give his mommy and daddy kisses.

*He's SO excited about his birthday and Christmas.

Project!!

I cut wood for some wood blocks and put the kits together. Last Tuesday night my friends and I got together to make these cute "Thankful" blocks. My mother-in-law came to visit this past weekend and we did some then as well. I love this holiday season and the opportunity it gives to remind us of all that we have to be thankful for.

Halloween

My pictures just loaded backwards so, I'm just going with it.
Our Halloween activities consisted of:
*Reading of Halloween stories the whole month of October
*Scotty watching "Spookly the Square Pumpkin", "Pooh's Heffalump Halloween Movie", and "Go Diego, Go Halloween" over and over and over again
*Drawing on Pumpkins (didn't get pictures, but nobody's missing out) *Halloween party at story time at the library
*Trunk or Treat at the church.
Scotty got to be Buzz Lightyear for Halloween. I got his costume in February at the Disney store. I bought it for $7.99--original price was $39.99. So, he really had no choice in the matter. Good thing he was still excited about being Buzz!
Friday night was the trunk or treat at the church. They also had a chili cook off and some games in the church.

Last Wednesday at story time there was a Halloween party. Scotty was so excited to wear his Buzz Lightyear costume and go trick or treating. The kids got to go trick or treating to the grocery store, the water company and a store where they sell candy and stuff from Mexico. Then they got to play a few games. They had a beanbag toss, fishing, and bowling. Scotty had his eye on the bowling game and just couldn't wait for his turn to come..............and those pictures didn't turn out. :( After games, they went inside and ate a fun Halloween lunch.
