Halloween - the kids were Minnie and Mickey Mouse this year. They were really cute and had a lot of fun. We took them trick-or-treating at downtown businesses on Wednesday, to Grandma Rainbow's Childcare party on Thursday, and trick-or-treating for 1.5 hours (despite cold) in our neighborhood on Friday. Things, like Halloween, certainly get easier and more fun as kids age.
In the last two months, Noah started wearing underwear and is now sleeping in a toddler bed. It took him about 2 weeks to be fully potty trained. And we learned, the hard way, that he won't use public restrooms, so we keep a potty chair in our car for now. His transition from crib to bed could not have gone more smoothly. He has been sleeping in it for two weeks now and continues to follow his routines from the crib, which we appreciate. He stays in bed in the morning until we get him. He sleeps through the night (dry most of the time) and still takes long naps. He doesn't get up to come see us during the night. He slept on a mattress at GG Rainbow's last night, and slept all night without waking too. Obviously, this milestone could not have been an easier transition. And, he LOVES his "new bed"!
Below are tidbits of the kids lately, including Halloween. It starts with me interviewing Joy after trick-or-treating on Halloween. Then, it shows Noah making Daddy feel better. And it ends with some clips of the kids enjoying books together. I love that they both enjoy books so much and cherish the moments when Joy reads to Noah. They melt my heart!
Have a very Happy Thanksgiving!
