I'm not for sure the date, but sometime in March Kasey decided she didn't want to go pee pee in the potty anymore. We will have to see what happens....
3/30 - Kasey was pretty fussy today so I stayed home with her while Greg and Landon went to soccer practice. We ate dinner and then hung out. We were in the play/computer room just talking. It was fun to really have a conversation with Kasey. I wish I had a camera to record it. She was talking about all kinds of things including telling me she talks a lot now. We talked about family and how everyone in the family loves Kasey and that she loves everyone. We talked about our walks and Landon riding his bike. She would talk about something then lean up on the desk and say yea. She told me about her kitchen and cooking. She requested that we listen to Shrek CD (which she later said was fun) on the computer. Anyway, we talked about several things and it was so fun to have that one on one time to talk with her and see how her mind works.
3/24 – We did kindergarten registration today. Landon got to see his new school for this year. He got to meet the teachers for next year and they all seem very nice. We got to meet the Principle and the Nurse and a few others. It was very interesting that they really focused on talking to Landon and asking him questions. He was a little shy, but answered them. He is now a Norton Knight, and we even got a t-shirt :)
3/23 – Landon went to the dentist today. He went to the back by himself for the first time. He also got to tell them that he had completely stopped sucking his thumb. They gave him a little monkey with a shirt that says I love my pediatric dentist for stopping sucking his thumb.
3/22 - There was a kindergarten preparation session tonight, and Greg offered to go so I could spend time with the kids. We had a good time. Finished up dinner, and then the kids helped me wash dishes. They really did. They both stood on stool, and Landon really helped wash dishes. Kasey helped wash a couple lids and I rinsed and layed them out to dry. Then we decided to go for a walk. Landon got to ride his bike a little. We went to the park, then walked some with Lady then headed home. We had a good time.
3/20 - After traveling for spring break and me day tripping Milwaukee on Friday, we had a very busy Saturday. I got up and worked out when I got back Greg and Landon went to his soccer practice. Kasey and I painted our toenails. We picked green :) Then we went to lunch and headed to Frisco for a birthday party. Landon got to play broom ball with about 20 other 4-5 year olds. Landon scored 2 goals and his team won 3-2. He had good time, but got sweaty and tired. After that we drove around trying to get the kids to take a short nap. We succeeded with Kasey, but Landon wouldn't fall asleep. Then we met Doug for dinner and the FC Dallas soccer game. It was opening night for the FC Dallas season. the kids got to have popcorn and did pretty well. They actually stayed in the seats through most of the game. After the game they had a fireworks show right next to the stadium. It was good and the kids really enjoyed it. Landon fell asleep on the way home and Kasey didn't take long to fall asleep after you busy day.
3/12-18 - We took a little trip for part of Spring Break. Landon had a noon soccer game on Saturday the 12th. We had the car packed and ready to go and lunch packed for the car ride. We drove down to Conroe to visit family. Saturday night my mom, aunt and cousin and I stayed up talking til 1am (which was 2am because of daylight savings) which was fun. Sunday we slept in a little and then Greg, Landon, Kasey and I drove to College Station for lunch and an Aggie baseball game. We had a good time and the kids did pretty good at least through the first 5 innings. They were a little more restless after that but did well. Then we drove back to Conroe. Monday we were going to try to go out on the lake with my aunt and cousins, but it ended up raining, being cool and windy. We actually had a relaxing day hanging out which we rarely get to do. We had a nice relaxing visit with the family. We also ate some good food and to much as usual.
Tuesday we drove to Brenham had lunch and at Brenham cafe and then went to the Blue Bell factory for a tour. It was like watching how it's made in real life, and then we all go to have ice cream at the end. Then we drove on to Austin and had dinner with Jaime, Tony and their twin 4 1/2 month olds Drew and Alex. We stayed the night in Austin. The kids were tired, but Kasey had a good nap from Brenham to Austin so she didn't want to go to sleep at all.
Wednesday I worked in the TI office from 7:45 til about 1pm, and then Greg and the kids picked me up. We went to eat lunch and headed home just in time to get Landon to soccer practice.
3/7 - We went up to the new Splitsville bowling alley to celebrate Liam's 5th birthday with the Turners. We all did some bowling including Kasey and had dinner. We had a good time. At the end the kids all started dancing around which was cute. Landon made a nice card for Liam that was cute with a picture of both of them.
3/6 - we took the kids to an Allen American hockey game today. It's a minor league team that plays 10 minutes from our house. We had good seats 3 rows from the glass. It was fun. The team is pretty good and won 6 to 2. The played the team from Odessa. Landon liked it some, but didn't watch as much as thought he would have. Kasey basically ate popcorn the whole time, but was pretty good. By the end they were both VERY tired.
They got to meat the mascot Biscuit who is a man dressed up as a bull dog with hockey gloves on. They both seemed to like him and weren't scared of him.
3/5 - Landon had a good assist in soccer game today. He passed the ball to Dylan and he scored. It was fun to watch. The boys won 3 to 1 against a team that had not lost a game. That was pretty good for us.
3/3 Kasey has been dancing and singing more. She'll say dancing and start dancing. She likes singing ABCs. She also is becoming more verbal about her feelings - not sure she understands it or not. Sometimes she'll say I'm mad, but not explain why. Or she'll say I'm happy or sad.
Kasey is doing pretty well going pee pee in potty when timer goes off every 45 minutes or so. Still some accidents, but she's getting there. We aren't pushing to much.
3/2 At soccer practice one of the other little girls brought a baby doll and stroller that had a blanket, pillow and pacifier. She played with it for quite a while. Taking the baby out putting it on the blanket with the pillow and blanket. Then she took the baby for a walk.
