Fall has been wonderful, full of all the usual fun we've come to expect...fall leaves, pumpkins, CANDY and costumes! Sawyer had a blast this Halloween in his Batman costume and was thrilled to have Griffin as his official side-kick, Robin. (Especially since every house we visited insisted on giving him an extra piece of candy on Robin's behalf!) John and I even had a chance to dress up to attend an 80's theme party at a friends house. We had a lot of fun and ran into the likes of Axel Rose, Cindy Lauper, Vanilla Ice, Tina Turner, Richard Simmons, Madonna and Boy George!
Beyond that we've both been busy with work and Sawyer has been busy in pre-school. He is full time in pre-school now and is learning SO much. Sawyer has taken a liking to math and is quite good at it. (At this age "math" consists of counting, matching numbers to the number of items, counting sides and corners/angles of shapes etc) They also have a computer in his classroom and I find him there almost every afternoon. He is a master at working the mouse, although he is left handed and "mouses" with his right hand. Sawyer is also very into puzzles right now. He can put 25-30 piece puzzles together all by himself.
Griffin is growing like a weed. Starting to take steps, but not confident enough to truly take off. When he does take a tumble he just bounces right back up and gets back to it. Tough little guy. John has nicknamed him Scrappy. Very apt name. I think that ones gonna stick...
Well, that is all for now. Griffin's birthday post will be up next so keep checking back!
Happy Fall!
Love,
The Wellhouse Family
P.S. Sawyer and I were having a discussion one day about fall and everything that happens in the fall. So I brought up Thanksgiving and asked Sawyer if he knew what Thanksgiving was...he quickly replied "Yep. That's when you give thanks for all the candy you got at Halloween!" When his teachers at school asked what he was thankful for he replied, "I'm thankful for Griffin." I think he's got the right idea about Thanksgiving. ; )
