A few things about Myles these days

 He's quirky. He loves to be silly and laugh. He's an entertainer. A very good entertainer that is.

 His favorite thing to do these day's is draw. He loves to draw sharks, snakes, snails, bugs, crabs, jellyfish and sea scorpions. He loves drawing pictures for people. The smile he gets when he hand delivers his art is priceless.

He's loving school too. He has made it clear that he loves his teacher Miss Kohli, but  does not  want to marry her. He's starting to read, and the excitement on his face when he sounds out the letters and recognizes the word is so much fun to watch. 

 So to recap this post. Myles is a wonderful boy. We are lucky to know him, love him, teach and nurture this little angel.

Halloween 2014

Myles school had fun after school activities the week of Halloween. 

A classroom with snakes, tarantulas and a tortoise was defiantly everybodys favorite.

 A 5 year old boy's struggle of choosing which costume to wear for Halloween is tormenting to a young lad. Myles has a few costumes he likes to dress up in, so why choose one right?

   Grandma Linda's trunk or treat with his cute cousin Kodi the ladybug and Myles the Power Ranger.

 Very creepy, yet funny witch. She had her costume on backwards, very very clever.

                                                            Bucket of loot #1.

                                     1 down, 2 more to go! Our neighbors trunk or treat.

                                           William the cop and Myles, aka Optimus Prime.

                                                               Bag of loot #2

Bag of loot #3 not photographed, this time he was Wolverine at Aspen.  Another fun Halloween that just flew right on by!

Gearing up for Halloween!

Myles school had a get together at Farmstead this year.

 We just love this time of year, so many fun thing's to do and the excitement of gearing up for the Holiday's.

 Myles had a blast, so many new thing's added to Farmstead, he loved the slide.

 The ultimate trampoline was a hit, they could have spent the entire day on this thing!

                                                                Work it Myles!

 This year Myles was in search for a green pumpkin. Green being  his favorite color, he wasn't going to leave without the perfect one.

                                                         

                                                                And he found it!

                                          
 I must add these photo's. Myles is obsessed with dressing up in costume. It is so cute, any project we do he says "wait, I have to get my costume on."

 Myles has been so excited about writing, counting, etc since school started. Jay and I were sitting in the family room when we hear "Don't anyone walk on my clean floor." When we looked to see what he was up to, we saw him writing his name on the kitchen floor with a wet rag. He also wrote the A,B,C's all over the dining room floor as well.

First three weeks of school wrap up.

In front of the school, a drain sits and waits for boys to play with it, gather sticks and watch in amazement over such an incredible site. The looks on the boy's faces is priceless. Each and every day when school lets out, the boys run to this drain and poke at it with sticks.  I'm sure for a 5 year old boy this is spectacular.

It was Anti-bully week at school and the kids were supposed to dress up each day in assigned categories. First day was work out gear.

                                                   Second day was Super hero gear

                                                He loves to kiss his muscles lately!

The remaining day's which were dress for success, crazy hair day and school spirit unfortunately didn't get photographed, darn. I'm still waiting minute by minute to get a full report on the weeks activities from Myles, other than "Don't be mean, don't be a bully." Fine details would be great, but he got the point and that's what's important.

It's been an adjustment with this whole school thing. We didn't think about the changes that would come and realized we took for granted the freedom of going to the park and doing fun things whenever we wanted. By the time he gets home, it's homework, dinner, some quick family time and ready for bed again. Being in Kindergarten  m-f 9-4, we've really learned to not take the moments we have together for granted.

Myles busy busy busy doing his homework. It's amazing the things he's already learned in just 3 weeks!

He is also super excited about Halloween. He came downstairs dressed in this. The cutest darn wolverine I've ever set eyes on!
