Friday, January 13, 2012 at 10:01PM Matthew was playing Wii Sports Resort with mommy tonight, and it was a game where you have to slice objects with a sword. They throw candles, sushi, diamonds, and other objects at your Mii to slice and dice. Matthew got so excited, he started yelling things out and jumping up and down while chopping things, and when they threw the egg at him, he cried out "scrambled eggs!". What a clever comment!

Matthew took off downstairs, and I had no idea why, and scrambled to chase him. By the time I got half way down the stairs, he was coming up from the bottom with a jar of Jessica's puffs in his hand.
"Here daddy, I got her puffs so she won't cry."
He had dug them out of the cupboard for her.
Monday, January 2, 2012 at 10:33AM I forgot all about Matthew's Halloween this past year! Me and Nonna both took Matthew out trick-or-treating while mommy and Nonno stayed home with Jessica. I can't recall everything he did, but he was very exited, and looked for which houses had pumpkins or decorations, because he knew those would have candy. He told me to be careful a few times on steps, and asked if we could have a pathway like one house had up to their front door at our house. The 2 things that stick out most to my memory are the 2 driveways we walked over, one with Oxford interlocking, and one with Villa. Stepping on the Oxford he said "look dash, an octagon, and a little square...octagon, square, octagon,square...". The other driveways he said "look daddy, a square, a small rectangle, and a big rectangle!"
There was one house that let him take his own candy, and he was too. Polite to, so he wouldn't take it and wanted the homeowner to give it to him.
Next year him and Jessica will both be out trick or treating...can't wait to see how they both act together!

Last night Matthew drew a picture in the Morris Lessmore app on the iPad. When I asked him what it was, he told me it was an airplane. Here is the version he drew for me tonight. Last nights airplane was more elongated and smoother, and the wings were offset as if it was in perspective!
