Current Obsessions....

The boys' obsessions change, rather it's weekly or monthly. Some never go away like Star Wars, Power Rangers. It amazes me how they can talk about almost every Star Wars character and know how he/she interacts with all the other characters; I will never be that knowledgeable!

Jaeden -
1. He loves playing 'pet vampire'  Not sure where he got that idea, but Jayce is the owner, and Jaeden is the pet.  They love drinking blood aka cranapple juice! And they build a cage with blankets and pillows on the bottom bunk bed. 
2. Green - anything and everything must be green!!!!

Jayce -

1. Now that he's almost 4, he's aspiring to grow up to be a monkey! Yes, a monkey!!! He's been telling me that for the past few days. Hopefully, this will pass quickly. He would be a great monkey, considering he loves to climb and jump on everything!!! It's obviously his favorite animal, but most people don't want to BE their favorite animal!!! This kid always has us laughing.

2. He loves jumping. Was that already mentioned? He would rather jump across the floor than walk. There's NOTHING, but maybe the kitchen table, he hasn't jumped on or over in our house! If it's on the floor, big or small, he'll jump over it, including us, jax's rocking horse and everything else. He has amazing heighth on his jumps too!! At this rate, he'll make a great hurdler!

Jaxon -

1. Dora, Dora, Dora the Explorer!!!! Yes, we have started Dora - round 3. Jaxon never had a chance to even watch dora until about 2 weeks ago. Right after he was born, Jaeden had just turned 4 and decided he was too old for Dora! So very little Dora has been watched in the last 18 months, which was a nice break. Fortunately, I don't really mind watching or hearing Dora frequently compared to some kid shows! Jaxon is finally saying lots and loves to repeat Dora words - backpack, map, swiper....

2. He loves "Jesus wants me for a sunbeam" and "Popcorn popping on the apricot tree." We've always sang a few songs after scriptures each night. But now, when we sit down for scripture time, Jaxon instantly starts signing "more, more, more" and we can barely get through our 10 minutes of scriptures before singing his songs!!! He of course loves to jump and sing "beam," and he's very good at saying and signing "popcorn" It's hilarious!!!!

Pictures are from Snake Day, after preschool a few weeks ago. You can see who has no fear!!
