When Hailey was in first grade, her teacher had an assignment to make a Leprechaun trap. Kaden LOVED the idea. Now, a year later, he has come up with HIS Leprechaun trap. It is a garbage sack box covered in red tape (because if the Leprechaun saw that it was a garbage sack, there is no way he would go in...ya know.) The top has 3 sides of a square cut out, so that if he steps on that part of the box, he falls in. He has put grass all on the top, and a pot of gold made out of play-doh and the fake gold coins...you know, the bait...to lure him in. (LOL) Well, that wasn't good enough. Once he is caught, he has to have stuff inside! So, he lined the bottom with the red tape for carpet, made a couch and a bed with a pillow. He still has plans to make a TV and some shelves. Don't worry, he has already figured out we don't have books small enough, so he will be making some. I am hoping Easter will distract him!
The first grade had a zoo! Every child did a report on a zoo animal. Kaden chose a Panda Bear. They made a poster, had pictures on it, and wrote facts about their animal on it. On Friday, they all got dressed up, put on their posters, and did a parade for the parents. It was so cute! I thought Kaden looked fantastic!
Kaden lost his first tooth last week! He let Thomas pull it out. He was very brave! He had the adult tooth right there, so I am surprised that it lasted so long! We need to start saving for braces...that new tooth is already looking crooked! Thomas and I both had to have them, so I figured our kids would. He is growing up so fast, and I am so proud of him!
