Anyone out there? How thick is the layer of dust surrounding my blog? I am such a lazy blogger, sorry. Sorry to the two people that read this thing. Ha ha.
Some quick updates:
*Jacob's best bud/cousin Matthew turned 4 in October. He had an animal themed party. Jacob was a cat. (His fave.)
*For Thanksgiving we went to visit family on the mainland for turkey dinner and a sleep over. Jacob played with his 2nd cousins Seamus and Lucy who he loves. It's neat for me to see my 6 year old cousin playing with my 4 year old son. Jacob stayed up waaaay to late, passed out in a bed with Lucy, watching Coneheads and eating Goldfish crackers. Yes, I just wrote that sentence, and yes, I cringed too. Totally and completely the exact opposite of my rules, and miles away from his normal routine, but it was our "vacation." One night off to do whatever. Ha ha. Once a year. That's it. :D
*Halloween was awesome. Jacob was a wizard, who went trick or treating with five skeletons. Kaleb, Jordan, Matthew, Ryen and Sean...ALL skeletons. We had a lovely dinner with friends followed by trick or treating and sugar crazy kids. Fun.
*Jacob's cousin Sean turned one this month. I can't believe it has been a year. The year went too fast. There was an owl themed party, complete with an owl cake. Sean is so adorable.
*Preschool is still going very well for Jacob. No problems at all. He showed his teachers that he can write his name, and some other words he knows as well. He loves school and is learning new things everyday.
He is really into mazes, connect the dots, and coloring inside the lines. He likes to take his felts and write notes on the calender in his room. If the date is the 7th, he will write a 7 on the date, then write Mommy, and complete it with a sticker. :D
His imaginative play astounds me. Yesterday he set up his mega blocks into a perfect stage, sectioned off an area in front of it with markers (the seating area) and then situated his Chipmunks figurines on the stage so they could have a concert.
I guess that brings me up to speed. I am going to go to bed now because it is 1 AM, and I am falling asleep while typing. I am going to add some pics tomorrow to prove that we did all this stuff. :D
Night!
