Halloween

I was not good at keeping up with blogging in October or November so this is a collaborative post of our Halloween happenings. We decorated our yard. We decorate a little more every year. 

We carved pumpkins. Kade carved his totally and completely solo. It was his first year doing it totally alone and he didn't a great job! 

Our ward trunk-or-treat was the same night as Tadd's birthday. He loved dressing up and going trick-or-treating on his birthday. 

On Halloween we went trick-or-treating, the boys absolutely love getting dressed up in their costumes. 

Grandma and Grandpa Blair were able to go out with us on Halloween. The boys loved having them with us! So fun!

It took Max a minute to figure it out but as soon as he did, he was unstoppable. He kept going back for seconds and thirds from the same door. 

We all had such a fun and relaxing Halloween. It was a good month!

On a side note, here's a picture of Max. He thinks he's soooo big. Look at those tippy toes! Sigh. I love that kid. 

Tadd Turned 4.

Tadd turned 4 in October. I don't know why, but the older he gets, the harder it is for me. I'm sad that Kade and Max are getting older too, but for some reason it's just harder with Tadd. He's my little mama's boy. We decorated his room while he slept. As per usual. 

He got to wake up to his favorite "breakfast", hostess chocolate donuts. And a new book. We love reading books together. 

We spent the day doing whatever he wanted to do. We went to the park, rode bikes and got frozen yogurt. Then, when Dad and Kade were home, we opened presents and had cupcakes. 

He had a football jersey that he absolutely loved. However, it was ruined, with silly putty. So we got him a new jersey. He was SO excited! Seriously. It was his favorite gift.

He always gets so shy when we sing to him. He's my kid for sure. 

The night of his birthday was the trunk-or-treat at church so we had a party for him a few nights later. We invited some friends over for a BBQ and cake. It was a fun night and we're lucky to have such great friends here!

We are so happy to have Tadd as part of our family. He is really rough and tumble most of the time but he is so sweet. He always makes sure everyone is taken care of. I'm proud to be the mama of such a tender-hearted boy. We love you Tadd!
