Fall is Here!!!

Updates on Clifton -
He has been working really hard on his letters and starting to get some down.  He often mixes sounds and letter up because they are similar in sound and appearance, but he is getting there.  I put together an alphabet book for Clifton full of things he likes or knows.  I gave him choices for each letter and he choose what he wanted for each letter.  It was fun to put together with him and I can't wait to get it in the mail and be able to look through it with him.
Well the potty training is getting put on hold.  Nothing is motivating him.  He refuses to even sit on the toilet anymore.  He has no desire whatsoever!

Updates on McKay -
Her personality is shining through more and more.  She definitely has a strong one.  If she does not want you to do something or be touched she will let you know.  I am afraid she is a little bit of a drama queen:/  But we still love her tremendously.

This picture shows McKay's personality.  Clifton being a good brother and hugging her and she is screaming because he is touching her.  Silly girl!

Oh man though she is super cute!

This week we had the first day of Fall.  So we got out and enjoyed the beautiful fall weather we are having.

The boys and I went on a walk and collected leaves and then went home and made a leaf collage.  They really really liked this one.

Then later this week we took another walk and collected more leaves and then tossed them around at the park.  They loved this one too!  Oh fall, how we love you!

I also put together a little matching board for the boys to play with so they could work on their letters.  They liked this a whole lot more then I expected.  Clifton asks to get it out everyday.

They both did really good at matching and naming the letters.  Learning is fun!

This weekend I heard there was a fall festival in Poulsbo.  So we decided to go see what it was about.  Well it turned into an adventure.  The festival consisted of one tent that only did face painting:/  So we decided to explore Poulsbo a little.  It is a cute town.

 We went to a local bakery and tried some goods.  For some reason out of everything he could have chosen, Clifton wanted a frowny face cookie.  Silly kid!

We went for a walk by the bay down to a little park.  McKay rode on the motorcycle toy.

Another wonderful week at the Peterson's!
