Dora and Airplanes

Lexie is obsessed lately with Dora the Explorer and airplanes. Every time she hears or sees an airplane we have to stop what we are doing and search for the airplane, it is hilarious. She has one outfit that has Dora on it and she insists on wearing that everyday. Well we were at Sam's a few days ago and happened to come across both in the toy section. Spence is always drawn to toys in every store we are in, and I was trying to hurry as fast as we could to get through. Lexie screams "stop, stop, stop", there on the shelf is a toy airport that talks. So of course we had to play with it and went to leave and she had the biggest meltdown, until we saw a Dora doll. I think we were in the toy section longer than it took us to get the four items we were there to get. Taking three kiddos to Sam's is quite the adventure:). The only way I could get Lexie out of the store was to tell her that Santa would bring her a Dora doll and an airplane. So ever since then she keeps saying, "Santa Dora awplane". I better make sure Santa brings those for her.

Halloween Fun

Last week was full of Halloween parties. Spence had a parade and special snacktime at preschool. Chandler had a parade and party at his school. The boys were sad that they were not able to wear their masks. We all had a party at Nate's work. They do a trick or treat, games, pizza, and desserts. Then on Halloween we had a halloween party at one of our friends houses. And then that night went trick or treating, too bad it was raining. I forgot to get pictures of the friends party and that night, oh well. Chan got a fever on friday night, so he was not able to attend the friends party or go trick or treating. Spence and Lexie got enough to share with him though.
