Addie's Weekly Photo
Cooper's Weekly Photo
Halloween fun! On Saturday, we had our Halloween party the following Wednesday we went trick or treating. The party was a hit and the kids had a blast! I think Cooper enjoyed all of the attention and Addison most surely enjoyed all of the extra kids around to play with! Trick-or-treating started at the Outlet Mall and ended at a nearby neighborhood where we went door-to-door. The outlet mall wasn't too crowded and the weather was nice enough that we didn't need extra coats/hats. By the time we arrived at the neighborhood, it was dark and perfect weather for door-to-door trick-or-treating. It was exciting to experience "traditional" halloween fun with the kids.
All about Addie
Potty Training: I've been posting about potty training weekly now because it seems like things can change in a matter of days when you're potty training your toddler. This week, Addison was very consistent about coming to us and telling us when she needed to go potty. We also learned this week that when Addison says "my belly hurts", it means she needs to poop! I feel like we've come such a long way in the last month with Addie and "accidents". Hoping we stay on a good track and can eliminate diapers completely within the next few weeks.
Gymnastics: Addison showed a new little gymnast this week. Even Miss Megan commented on how great Addison did at this weeks session. Addison went across the balance beam by herself, she was able to jump forward the entire length of the trampoline, and a few of the "obastacle course" activities were done to perfection! I'm so proud of her!
Halloween: It was a really exciting Halloween for us to watch Addie experience and react to all of the fun. She had her "trick-or-treat's" and "thank-you's" down to a T! Walking around the outlet mall, I wasn't sure if she would get spooked by all of the crazy and scary masks that some kids wore but she didn't react at all!
All about Cooper
First Halloween: Cooper is obviously a little too young to really enjoy the festivities, but he sure did look adorable in his little lion costume! In effort to include him a bit more in the festivities, I let him taste one of Addie's suckers for a few minutes. Lets just say, he didn't want me to take the sucker away!! LOL
Smacking Lips: Coop's newest thing is smacking/popping his lips. He will just sit around and making popping sounds sometimes babbling between pops. Super cute!
Easy Burper: For whatever reason, Cooper was very difficult to burp even since birth. I'm assuming it had something to do with the acid reflux. In the last week, I've noticed he is much easier to burp. Sometimes it's just a matter of picking him up after he is done eating and a huge burp will immediately come out!
