Make Believe

Today Chasen did a make believe thing for the first time.
He pointed at some water in a picture and said whats that?
I said water.

He amazes me everyday!

Chasen...

The ever changing Toddler.

Chasen is now speaking in sentences,
Mama shut the door
Mama, what is that
Mama, I have it please
Whats K-E (kevin is literally K,E) doing
Whered dada go
Help me, help me
I watch it
Me show you then he takes your hand to show you something, usually a bug or dog hair he found on the floor.
he can sing the ABC's only missing a few letters or combining them and he can count to 10 really well and then a little through the teens to 20! he mostly says 12 teen teen seven 20! its cute:)

he listens pretty well to and understands a lot.
We were at the store and he wanted to get this and that and I kept telling him, we'll have to ask grama first. It worked for a while then he was like ask grama. where grama go!
so grandmas, be ready for him to ask you for things!! "I have it" ;)

we went to the mall on friday and the hawks were playing hockey
Chasen sat that close to the glass and didnt flinch when they would hit it or shoot pucks at hit.
maybe he will be a hockey player!!

That was firday night, then sat morning was tailgating and saturday afternoon/evening we did creepy camping at iowa lake with cousin garin!


chasen was a skeleton. I got the costume last year a day after halloween for 99 cents

it was rainy and cold so we didnt trick or treat much but chasen like handing out the candy with grammie!
He loved watching all the kids come up there dressed up!
we did do a little trick or treating in the wagon. chasen didnt say or do much i think he was just in awe of it all!

here he is in the camper playing with cars and trains...his favorite part!

and this is what was under his costume :)


and on sunday we did this!!

Ill share more on that later. good night!
