Lots of holidays

Last month Mom made me six new pairs of pants.  Mom likes them because they don't fall off my bum and they aren't so short they show my legs.  I like them because Mom let me pick what patches to put on my pants.  I have pants with a guitar, a firetruck, a horse and a fish, and some other things.  Now that it is getting colder outside, I wear long pants every day and I like being warm.

We put up our Christmas tree a couple of days ago.  I went with Mom and Grandma to get some decorations and I picked out jingle bells and drums for the tree.  Mom made me wait until Dad got home before we could put up the tree and put the decorations on it.  I like to tell everybody that I put instruments on the tree.  I know all sorts of big words now and that one is one of my favorite.  Dad taught it to me.  When Mom asks me which instruments are on the tree, I tell her "drums".

Sometimes I like to help Mom sew.  I sit on her lap and try to push the button.  She tells me I can't push it until she tells me too, but sometimes I push it anyway.  I also like to try to give her pins, but she doesn't like me to do that job and tries to move the pins where I can't get them.  Sewing is fun to do with Mom.

I am really good at sharing with my sister.  If somebody gives us candy, I get two and give one to Sage.  I give Sage her blanket or teddy bear when she is sad.  When Mom gets our cups of milk at bedtime, I take Sage's cup to her.  I am a very good brother.  Mom asks me if I am going to be a good brother when we have our new baby and I tell her that I will be.  Mom says there's a baby in her tummy and sometimes when we go to the doctor I get to hear the baby.  But I don't know if it's really in there.

My favorite colors used to be orange and pink, and I would always want to eat on those colors of plates.  Now I think my favorites are blue and pink.

Halloween was so much fun this year.  I dressed up as Superman and we went and rang doorbells and got lots of candy.  Sometimes I didn't even have to say "trick-or-treat".  I just grabbed the candy.  I still like to talk about Halloween.  Sometimes when I want candy I tell Mom that it's Halloween today, but she doesn't believe me and doesn't give me more candy.  Mom says we also had Thanksgiving holiday, but that one wasn't as fun.  We went to grandma's for dinner, which we do sometimes anyway for dinner, and I got to eat turkey (I really like turkey), but there was no candy so I didn't like it as much.

I am getting really good at singing songs.  Most of the time when Mom sings me songs I sing along.  I also sing really well at daycare.  My favorite songs right now are the lion song and the child of God song.  I always want to sing those songs before bedtime.
