| Woody absolutely loves jiu-jitsu. He's one of the youngest in the class but he just loves everything about it. We are really proud of him for paying attention and working hard and being a respectful competitor. |

| Woody was making a "classification of animals" book and we got pretty into it. I think standard first grade would omit a "hagfish" page in the book and just go with a "fish page" but. . . we love a good educational tangent. During our research on this disgusting jawless fish we discovered that Hagfish Day was October 17! We made "hagfish cupcakes" and talked about finding the beauty in all creatures; big, small and kinda gross. |

The start of our Halloween costumes! Having young kids makes every holiday way more fun and Halloween is no exception. Until the kids say no, I am always going to encourage matching costumes. I LOVE a Halloween theme!
We make our costume here in Panama. For lots of reasons, and not just because there are no good stores and shipping from the USA is ridiculously expensive. It's also fun! And educational! And the Halloween party here has a costume contest that always leans towards homemade costumes over store bought.
So, Woody learned to sew! AND, I was the only one that stabbed themselves with a needle! Just so much winning all around!

| the kids got super into it. By the end of the afternoon, Tohi's babies and almost all the stuffed animals had homemade kimonos. |
