Taking the skin off Cucumbers



K has been helping out in the kitchen lately. He is now able to skin his own cucumber for the pasta salad he loves to eat:

Valentine's Day 2015

Happy Valentine's Day! K has been very sick this week. He had a trip to the ER the Tuesday evening before Valentine's. He had a fever of 103. It was very scary, but the doctor said he was going to be fine. He was just catching a bug. On Valentine's Day K was feeling better, so we decided to take him out to lunch:

                                                        K loves the video games!!!!

                                                        My turkey burger.

Daddy had Fajitas!!!!

                                                       K's macaroni & cheese!!!

 

                                                   Shortly after lunch he was not feeling well again.
                                           We stayed home for the rest of the day, and K got some rest.
                                                             Poor little guy.

Preschool

Since I've gone back to work, K has been in preschool full time. He is learning so much, and making friends. His preschool has extra classes that they offer once a year that you can sign your child up for. This year they offered a Science class & Yoga class. By the time I got to the sign ups, the science class was already full, but I was able to get him into the Yoga class:

He loves it!!

K working on an art project.

Playing on the playground with friends.

Learning ABC's in circle time.

He brought potato heads to school when his class was learning about potatoes. 

Learning about different smells....

Playing on the swing set at the preschool.

 

K has transition very well to preschool. He enjoys going to school in the morning, and bringing items to school to share in the share box. He has learned so much! He continues to surprise me with his growing vocabulary. He enjoys all of his teachers, especially the school director! He is soaking up every social experience this preschool has to offer. I could not be more proud of how well he is doing! I think this transition was harder on Mommy then it was on K :(

 

 

 

Decorating Easter Eggs

I went back to work in January, and have not had time to post to K's blog as much as I would like :(

We decorated Easter Eggs today!

                                                      Look Mom! I'm Hulk!!!

We decorated 18 eggs and only dropped one. We decided to eat it. K thought it tasted so good, we decided to eat one more!

 

We also went to K's preschool's Easter party last week! Where K got to take a picture with the Easter Bunny! He also got to put together some Easter arts & crafts projects. It was a lot of fun!

 

4th Birthday!!!!

This blog post is long over due!

For K's 4th birthday we gave him the choice to have a party or go to the snow for a weekend. He chose to go have fun in the snow. Well, life has gotten in the way and we have had to post pone the trip several times. First K was sick, then Daddy was sick, then Mommy, and then K again! This is a drought year, so the snow is most likely gone for the season. Mommy & Daddy have failed miserably.  I've told K that we will make it up to him. I feel horrible that he did not get to go do what he wanted to do for his birthday. Daddy is planning a trip to Utah, so hopefully K will get to use all his new snow gear there. He got new boots, gloves, hat, and sled for his birthday!

K's 4th Birthday started off with a silly string fight against Daddy in the front yard!

 

I took K to pick out some cupcakes on his birthday at Sweet Bliss Cupcakes!

Of course he picked out the mint chocolate chip!

Happy 4th Birthday Sweet Boy!

He wanted a Round Table pizza for dinner!

His idea of fun, cupcakes, pizza, and video games!

 

Happy 4th Birthday!!

 

 

K celebrated with Grandma & Grandpa too!

Thank you Grandpa!

Thank you Grandma!

This was a big present from Grandma & Grandpa!

It was a Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle taller than him!!

 

Happy 4th Birthday honey! I can not believe you are already 4 years old!

The years are flying by way too fast! I'm so proud of you! You are such a little gentleman, such a joy in our lives! I love you to the moon and back x infinity! xoxo
