Halloween!









This Halloween Cassidy was a fisherman. She needed rain boots and a rain jacket anyway so Matt made her a fishing pole and we were done! Easiest costume ever :-) The neighborhood we live in is on the affluent side. (Quite incredible we found this super affordable apartment!) So most of the homes we went to took some trekking up long driveways and lots of steps. Admittedly we picked several houses I just was plain nosy about! They were so beautiful! The architecture is just incredible. We stopped at the homes of a few faculty members from my job and we also took Cassidy trick or treating around the business in our cute downtown area. She would get so excited and say, "Let's go to ANOTHER house!" She hasn't eaten any of her goods. She doesn't like candy. Or cake. Or ice cream. Believe me, I've tried to feed her these decadent items and she wants no part of it. I was in shock when she had cake on Matt's birthday! She didn't touch any of the leftovers the next day, but at least she celebrated that night! Cassidy continues to be utterly charming and astoundingly smart :-) Some of the pics are from her class. They put a pumpkin together and trick or treated the hallways.

After you clean your room...

This evening Cassidy revealed to me a small secret to keeping her occupied. After dinner she asked me if she could watch a show. We don't have tv, but we do have netflix through the wii on our tv and we watch all the greatness that PBS and Nickelodian have to offer! Except for Caillou because I think he's kind of whiny. Anyway, she gets to watch limited amounts of Diego, Dora, Dinosaur Train, Super Why, Word World, etc and sometimes we throw in some Cosby Show for good measure. She'll pick two shows and watch one, 20 minute episode of each and then we call it good. Well tonight when she asked for a show, I told her she could watch one episode of her favorite after she cleaned her room. She went into her room and as she started putting toys away, she started playing with them. She'd go to put books away and start "reading" them. Twenty minutes later she'd start putting crayons away, then start drawing with them. Ten minutes later she'd start putting awa...

The Weekends

The weekends have a new meaning to me now.  Saturdays are the perfect day because I get unlimited access to Cassidy. During the week I have to share my time between work, chores, tasks, and more. Sunday we have church and prep time for the week. But Saturday is magical. Saturday is for adventures in the park and incredible views in the mountains you can only reach by foot. Saturdays are for sleeping in or getting up early and making a big breakfast. Saturdays we sometimes stay in our pajamas, and others times we get all dressed up for no reason. On this particular Saturday Cassidy and I met up with some friends at church for the first End of Summer Fair. We had a good time...

Dancing

Cassidy loves to dance. So far, any type of music gets her going! In this video we were cleaning the kitchen when she decided to break out. When she saw the camera she started saying cheese because she thought it was a real camera. I hope you can see it!
