I can't believe that it is already October. This year has flown by. This was a picture from last year. Kati painted the pumpkin on the bottom. She does such an awesome job!!!!! I attempted to carve the pumpkin on the top. Not bad for my very first time!
Carrigan is out of school right now on Fall Break. She is enjoying her time at home. We've been working on her reading (she can read Green Eggs and Ham and Ten Apples Up on Top). We are so proud of her. She has really turned into quite a little reader. Right now we are in search of easy books for her to read. Carrigan is participating in the Book It Program at school and if she meets her goal each month she will earn a Pizza Award Certificate for a Personal Pan Pizza. Of course to her that is a huge deal so she is wanting to read a book every night. I just hope that she keeps it up. She has also been doing addition and subtraction problems on her own (she hasn't learned that in school yet but she has several of Hunter's old books that she likes to work in). Maybe she will take after her daddy and be good in math. If she takes after me - we will be in big trouble!!!
Alan is the funniest little guy I've ever been around. He has the best personality. Don't get me wrong - he also has a temper if he doesn't get his way - which is alot. I think that he is really enjoying his sister being home so far. This morning they were making forts in the foyer and playing chase through the house. If his sister is home then he is right there with her and wants to do everything that she is doing. If she is laying on her bed - he is laying right beside her. They are like two peas in a pod. Right now he is riding piggy back on his sister. LOL
I found an old picture of Carrigan riding the John Deere last year. She is always asking her daddy if she can drive it around the yard.
This is of Alan taking a nap in his sisters bed while she was at school one day! It was so sweet I just had to take a picture. This might be one that I might have to bring out when he turns 16 and show all of his friends! LOL!!
Hope everyone is enjoying the cooler weather! I know we are.
