Science project

Lukas has been learning about different habitats in science. His teacher sent home a science project. He had to create an animal habitat using a shoebox. He could choose from the following habitats he studied:

Rain Forest

Desert

Grassland

Tundra/Artic

Pond

Ocean

Lukas chose to do a desert. He was so excited and couldn't wait to make his habitat. He went online and found desert images. We took him to Pat Catan's to get some sand and plastic animals. He really did a great job on this project (With a little help from Mommy). It is due on December 5th and he has it completed! He's going to take it in on Tuesday. Great job, Lukas. We love your desert habitat!

Christmas Tree

We like this one!

Typical, one man doing the work while the other watch:) Haha

This one is perfect for me, Mommy!




Today, we went to get our Christmas tree!

We went to a new tree farm this year. The weather was warm and the boys had so much fun. Landon had tons of fun running through the pine trees and fell down at least four times. After searching for about an hour, we ended back at the same tree we saw in the very beginning... our blue spruce. It's a very heavy, prickly, big bugger! We love our tree this year:)

Family photos

We had some family photos taken by Altman Freelance Photo a couple weeks ago. We had a lot of fun on the shoot:)

All I want for Christmas is...

...my two front teeth!

This morning after breakfast, Lukas came up to me and said "is my tooth bleeding?" I told him it was and he said that it was from eating his Apple Jacks. I couldn't let him go to school like this, so I asked him to let me pull it out. This makes tooth #4! This was the first tooth that was a little painful for him. He didn't cry, but let out a couple yells. He was so excited when he looked in the mirror. As usual, Mommy gets to the dirty work;) It's really not as bad as I thought it was going to be pulling teeth. I'm a pro just like my mother was! I've actually pulled all of his teeth. Lukas actually asks me to pull them. He gets scared to do it himself. Doesn't he look so different?!?!

Tooth #3

Lukas lost his third tooth tonight!

His two front teeth have been loose for a couple weeks. He finally lost one of them and the other one will be out in a day or two.

Loving FALL!

Today was absolutely gorgeous. We all LOVE this weather. We had a great time playing in the leaves. Landon kept wanting us to barry him and Lukas couldn't get enough of riding his bike through the leaves. What a BLAST!
