Our kids have been fighting a lot lately. They always start out playing well together and then it gets ugly! Hallee got a little confused and told Wyatt that she wasn't going to be his brother anymore when she was mad at him!
I have been trying to capture the moments when they are getting along! Wyatt made this cute hat at pre-school. He was trying to teach Hallee how to give a "man hug." Jonah and Wyatt give each other "man hugs" every morning before Jonah leaves for school. Instead of embracing they just pat each other on the back. I'm not sure how that started, but it is pretty funny.
Wyatt's pre-school teacher asked the kids to start collecting change about a month ago so they could do some Christmas' in a box for children in need. Wyatt went around the house asking us all for money. Caitlyn gave her whole allowance for the week and Jonah and Wyatt both gave some of their allowance. I kept giving Wyatt money because he was just so cute when he asked! He was proud to take all of that money back to his teacher. They put the boxes together this week in pre-school. I'm really sad to leave his school, I have been so impressed with his teacher.
Wyatt's separation anxiety has been really bad again. I had to carry him into pre-school kicking and screaming a few times. I told him that he could earn a Jake and the Neverland Pirates game if he went to school without screaming. The deal was that he could earn it the first day he didn't cry, but if he cried after that then he had to give the game back and earn it back again. He was so proud of himself for not crying and he hasn't cried since. He was really excited that Boston passed down his Jake costume so he could play his game in the costume!
We have boxes all over our house. I'm trying to pack up what I can and get at least a couple of boxes packed each day. Wyatt and Hallee had fun playing in the boxes one day. I realized that Hallee has been packing up things from her room. One item per box!
Jonah is such a sweet older brother. Hallee wanted me to read to her but I was in the middle of something so Jonah read to her instead.
He can always make other kids laugh!
I gave all of the kids a haircut last week. Caitlyn is loving her shorter hair. I hated to cut Hallee's, but the ends needed to be cut off. It is still pretty long and it looks so much healthier.
On Monday my mom took Hallee to see the new Peanuts movie. Hallee loved it! My mom said Hallee seemed to enjoy the movie, especially because grandma got her popcorn! After that grandma took her to her house for lunch and to play. We are so lucky to have my mom, she loves my kids so much and that makes me so happy!
