This morning we had gymnastics. You had a great class, but you did leave a little again. I was helping Olivia in her class & you kept wanting to come over with me. Coach Nickie talked with us after class & said your strength & skills have greatly improved & you are just about ready for the 5 year old class. But, she can’t move you up until she’s confident you won’t leave your class because the big kids tumbling could hurt you if you aren’t with your class. They typically don’t move you up until your birth month, but physically, you are ready!
After class, we went to fancy breakfast with Chrissy & Olivia. You love watching out for her and holding her hand. You are such a good leader & caretaker. When we left breakfast, we went to a drive by trick or treat for my friend’s granddaughter, who’s Mom is sick so they can’t go trick or treating. We returned a few things at Macy’s then headed to Benderson park to play and run the maze. You played on the swings and then chatted with some kids and struck up a game of hide & seek (your newest fav lately). You were negotiating and giving directions to the kids telling them who was going where etc.
We went home to shower and get ready for trick or treat. I painted your nails with Buzz colors to match mine. You were so excited about it! You wanted to get into your costume at like 3:30p! It was killing you to wait. So we watched Toy Story Terror while you waited for your nails to dry.
Marcela came to see us dressed in our costumes & so did my friend Ingrid Walker & her dog Benji. All you cared about was the kisses Benji was giving you! Finally, it was time and we loaded up in your spaceship & took off! Aunt Deb cam and trick or treated with us too!
It took a long time for us to get around the block because the spaceship caused quite a ruckus! When we got home, you asked me to go outside so we could sit by the fire and just relax. Some of the neighbors came over and you said they were too loud. You said “I don’t want to hear all that talking.” You asked me for an apple and snuggled up in my arms. THIS is perfect!!!! I love you sooooo much! We FaceTimed with Ms. Sandy because we missed her earlier. You wanted to go back out take spaceship and get a burger from the Barker’s house, so we took another lap. You bellied right up to the bar and chatted up all the grown ups like you owned the joint! This was an awesome Halloween. We had a fun day and a great evening. This is definitely one for the books and I hope you never forget this!!!!
I love you soooo much!
