Kindy 500

Kaycee's Kindergarten does a lot of fun and educational activities. This month they did the Kindy 500 to help make their government unit more fun. They each made cars to wear while driving around the United States. Kaycee got North Carolina! While picking Isaac up at Banfield the other day to take to the airport Nick saw the cute Frisbees and then came about her car. She was so excited. We procrastinated until the final week (Thursday) but it turned out pretty well.

Different rooms around the school had different places and themes. They went to New York where they talked about the Statue of Liberty (Lady of Liberty crown), North Dakota to see Mount Rushmore (postcards), learned about the flag (flag bracelet), and the Liberty Bell (bell). They even got their own Driver's License and key with Kindy 500 key chain.

Funny Moments with Kaycee

This time I am writing down Kaycee's comments to her dad. I always say, "Oh, I'll remember tomorrow" and then I forget. This time my brother reminded me of what she said the other day. Thanks Brandon. I had to go ask Isaac about the other ones. She says so many it is hard to keep track. They are usually to her dad so he remembers them pretty vividly. When she was somewhere between 6 months and 9 months old when she first started rolling her eyes at her dad. We knew we were in trouble then.

So, the other day Kaycee was riding with Isaac and said, "dad, are you speeding?" Isaac said, "ya, a little bit. I'll slow down." Then without a beat she said, "well, I hope you like dirty toilets and yucky food." He laughed so hard he had to pull the truck over.

Another time we met my dad at his hotel when he came to Salt Lake and went swimming. Kaycee was sitting in the hot tub with Papa and Isaac walked over from the pool to get in. Kaycee said, "nice pink toenails dad." Isaac replied, "shut up Kaycee, it is your fault." She replied with, "no, you shut up Mr. Boobie Man." With Kaycee when she speaks she has attitude with it!

She does not skip a beat with her little comments to her dad. I don't know where she gets it.

Another hilarious moment, with her dad again. He was watching them because I had gone somewhere and she was using the master bathroom. She had the door open so she could "conversate" with her dad. Crazy chick! They were talking and all of the sudden she said, "oh man, I think I pooped my bones out."

Long Time New Update

Wow, I can't believe how crazy life has been. The kids are growing up fast and a ton has happened.

Kaycee LOVES school. She goes to four sessions of preschool, five days a week. I drop her off at 9am on my way to work and she gets done at 3pm and they take her across the street to join Kayden at daycare. She's not too keen on daycare, she says that it is "too boring." She was doing awesome until she missed a week from her seizure. Then it was rough getting her going again but she is doing better. She still isn't quite herself and has those not feeling well days but luckily Nana and Aunt Sara have been around to help with all of that while I am at work.

She is so excited to start going to school at mom's work. She'll go with me three days a week and then to I Can Do It Myself Preschool in Payson twice a week.

Kaycee slowed down growing for a few months and in the blink of an eye grew three inches in just a day it seemed. Her pants that were too long for her for the longest time are now too short. She is growing up way too fast.

First Snow

Kaycee has been waiting for it to snow all year. She can't wait to go out side and play in the snow and make a snowman. She says this everyday. This morning I saw that it had snowed and just waited for her response. She came running into my room screaming, "mommy come look, hurry, hurry." So I followed her into her bedroom and she lifted up her curtains and squeeled "its snowing" and ran and started getting dressed, snow boots and all. As soon as Isaac walked in the door she grabbed his hand and drug him outside.
