Leprechaun Trap

We worked on Connor's family homework last night (yes, the night before it is due - hey, give me a break, we had a very busy weekend!) of making a Leprechaun trap. The wheels were a turning that's for sure. Hopefully it's OK that we used part of what we made last year and tweaked it adding on a few things. It worked out great. Connor is pretty confident that he is going to catch a Leprechaun this year and he says that if you catch one and ask for it's gold, it has to give it to you I guess. He kept saying, "Yep, we're definitely getting some gold this year!". Wouldn't that be nice. I'm keeping my fingers crossed.
Connor also said that Leprechauns like to cause mischief and that he can only imagine what they are going to do to our house tonight. I'm scared to find out. We'll keep you posted.

In Jacob's birthday post I mentioned that he is such a great sharer. Well, tonight we went to Target to spend the money that Nana gave him for his birthday. We walked up and down all of the aisles and he finally decided to by some cars from the movie Cars. He got three of them and says to me, "This way there is three of them, like there are us three brothers. We can all have one to play with then.". It made me so proud. He picked out the three he wanted, but then asked Connor and Jacob which one they wanted to play with. He wanted the same one that Nolan did, but let Nolan have it. It melted my heart.
