First Curl

It killed me, but it was time to cut K's first curl. As you can see, she still doesn't have much hair. This curl was turning into a rat tail from the late 80s, so it was time to go. I can't believe how hard it was for me to cut it, but K took it like a champ!

Her first curl was cut on 3-14-12. Now if we can just grow some hair all over. Although I must confess that it is nice not to have to fix it everyday. :)

Lets go fly a kite

Tuesdays have become a special day in our home. I am off on Tuesdays, and I always have Kinley on that day. I decided this was the best day to reward her for her chores that she completed on her chore chart from the week before. Today K got a slush that we shared from Sonic, and her first kite.

She enjoyed this cherry lemon slush!

Of course it had to be a Dora kite.

The kite never made it up. There just wasn't enough wind today, but we will try again soon.

Kinley's Kindermusic Class

K has been enrolled in Kindermusic for 3 semesters now. We attend this class on Monday afternoons at Calvary Baptist Church and she loves it. It has taught her to love music, find the beat in a song, and even put things away when she is finnished with them. I know that may seem minor, but for my 2 yr old it is huge! :) Here are some pics so everyone can get an idea of what Kindermusic is all about.

We can find the rythum with the sand blocks.

The kids play with the ribbons as they walk to the slow music and run to the fast music.

These baskets represented wagons. We pulled the kids around the room pretending the wheels were coming off and the road was bumpy. They love this exercise!

She loves to gingle her bells!

And of course we love the egg shakers! Kindermusic is Great!!!

A Night at the Movies

I decided to give Kinley a girls night out at the movies. The Lorax was the second time she has been to the theater not counting Josh's bday party when she was 4 months old. Last year on her 2nd birthday we went to see Winnie the Pooh and she did fantastic. I was hoping she would be just as good, and she certainly exceeded my expectations.

Meme joined us as well.

We went to the 5:00 show. Instead of dinner, she filled up on popcorn and candy. I think she enjoyed that more than the movie. :)

Kinley said she loves watching the "big tv".

Happy Valentines Day

K had a big day. Last night we exchanged valentines at Kindermusic. This moring we went to school for the big Valentines Day Party. Once party time was over, I had to go to work :( but when i got off we had lots more fun. Presents, pizza, and family made this V day a great one!

At the party, the kids got to decorate their own cupcake. You can tell that K did alot of decorating. :)

This was supposed to be a train on top with the flag saying I Choo Choose you. It was cute, but we had a little bit of trouble.

She loves her sweets. Especially at 9 AM.

We got alot of cute, creative valentines.
K's school gave each parent a heart to decorate. It has been years since i pulled out my scrapbooking bag, but i enjoyed every minute of making this heart for my baby girl.

This is K's gift to me.

Meme made K this cute outfit for V day. She wasn't going to make the hat, but K asked for it. She hasn't wanted to take it off since she got it.

K got a responsibility chart, bath toys, and of course a cup of gummy bears.

Pizza and Josh...two of our favorite things.

Oh, we can't forget Uncle Mikey and Auntie! Happy Valentine's Day Everyone!!!

New Blogger

I have finally decided to start a blog. It just seems like the easiest way for everyone to keep up with us. This has been a busy month. K and I went to St Louis with Missy and A. We ate at Chucky E Cheese, had our first nights stay in a hotel, and went to The Magic House. This month was also J's 9th Bday party. It was a skateing party and we had soooo much fun. K's first time on wheels! Finally, we made a trip to Paducah to get a special gift from Paw Paw and go back to Chuck E Cheese with Meme.
