31 for 21: Happy Buggy Hallo-birthday!

We got to see Grandma C on her birthday this year! She usually goes to have a birthday visit with Miss Karen, but this time she stayed home.  So we went to have dinner with her and then we went around her neighborhood to a few places with nice people. Wanna peek at last year and the one before?? See if anything looks familiar? Here’s when KiKi was 1 1/2 and I was almost 4. (2010) And here’s when KiKi was 2 1/2 and I was almost 5. (2011) And here’s this year, KiKi’s 3 1/2 and I’m gonna be 6 in a few weeks!! I’ve worn the same bumblebee for 3 years!  The same one, not a bigger one.  And KiKi wanted a ladybug again, but she couldn’t fit in the one from before, so we found another one just like it only a little bit bigger.  Next year, we’re going to try something new… Hope you had a great day!

31 for 21: First BiG concert!

Me and mommy are watching LOTS OF PEOPLE come in to this place called Family Arena to watch Tobymac. I keep telling Mommy and Daddy, "I am SO excited!!!"   KiKi and Daddy are walking around looking at stuff. Mommy and me are taking cheese pictures before it get really really loud in here!!

31 for 21: Another tooth gone

Today I had to go to the dentist .  I don’t know if you know this, but I do NOT like to go to the dentist.  Dr. Lindsey is very nice, I mean, but she makes me lay down.  I do NOT like to lay down on my back in those kinds of places. NOT ONE BIT.  I had to go there a couple months ago to get my first tooth out, and when I got there this time, I told Mommy and Daddy very clear that I wanted to GO HOME NOW. But they said I had to stay.  This time it hurt a little more.  I felt the big poke in my mouth for the shot.  That was NOT fun at all.  Mommy and Daddy have to hold on to me really tight, and they kind of lay on top of me when I’m crying really loud.  I keep telling them I want to get up and be all done, but they say not yet.  Mommy says, “I’m sorry,” a lot.  Dr. Lindsey is really quick, I guess, but it feels like a long time.  They have to put this candy-smelling stuff by my nose, but I don’t like that either.  When they start to give me the shot, Mommy has to look the other way

31 for 21 : Sleep stackers

Daddy and KiKi like to cuddle. They cuddle in the morning time a lot when it’s Saturday or Sunday and Daddy’s still home when we wake up.  I’m not so into cuddling for very long, but this sleeping in a stack might be fun to try.

31 for 21: Ella’s house

Almost every day I ask Mommy, “Can we go to Ella’s house?”  Usually she says, “Not today.”  But today was Tuesday, so we got to go!  We go play with our friends while the adults learn Bible stuff.  Next month everyone’s going to come to our house each week.  Now THAT will be fun! Tonight me and KiKi and Ella took some pictures outside.  We’re all pretty much the same size.  KiKi and Ella are 3, and I’m going to be 6 in a few weeks. KiKi was trying to get pictures later with Cody and Landon, but they kept going away from her.

31 for 21: I smile. She swims.

Mommy is having fun with Auntie Rachel’s camera. So we’ve been doing a lot of “cheeeese.” Sometimes I do my serious thinking face, though. KiKi had swim lessons tonight, and she pretended to be a puppy. But she swam pretty good tonight!  Then we went to cheer with Daddy while Mommy had a meeting.  We need a staycation, Mommy says.  And a blank calendar. We watched a little baseball and football, too.  The Cardinals forgot to play at their game tonight.  But the Bears played great and WON!  Da Bears!

31 for 21: Gooooooing up!

Tonight at cheer, I went ALL the way up! High as they could reach me. And I didn’t get scared at all.  Coach Steve put KiKi up on his hand again, and he even walked around with her up there!  She didn’t get scared.  She’s really good at being up there and staying straight up. We also practiced tossing tonight.  We stand on their arms and then they toss us up in the air.  I didn’t mind it, but I didn’t stay up like I was supposed to.  KiKi flew pretty high on hers.  Mommy caught a picture as she was coming down. KiKi also helped Coach Becky with the rope on the Tinker Bell swing.  I didn’t know she was that strong, but she sure tried to pull on it. We have some more of our friends who visited tonight and who are going to be cheering with us.  YAY!

31 for 21: Full fall day of fun

First we started with some pictures in the backyard with the leaves. We didn’t want to take real pictures, so Mommy just got some of us being silly. But we’re still cute, I say. KiKi just kept wanting to pose. We did stand together. For just a second. But then we wanted to just throw leaves in the air. Then we went to the store and got a few last things we needed for the big picnic. It was the picnic for all my friends here who are “extra” cool like me.  KiKi tried to do monkey bars but Maddie had to help her.  She’s nice like that. We had to leave the picnic early to go to see Coach Sara and Coach Steve at their game.  They teach us to cheer so we wanted to see THEM cheer at the football game!  Go LU! KiKi sat with Coach Shannon, Coach Sara’s mommy.  I sat with Daddy. The cheerleaders did a little show at halftime. Coach Sara’s up in the air. Here’s a close shot of her. Then Coach Sara and Coach Steve cheered in front of

31 for 21: A field trip. Again.

KiKi’s class must have heard how much fun we had at the pumpkin patch yesterday, because they went today!  Mommy went both times, so I’ll let her tell you about their day today… Déjà vu. We loaded up the van with cute little girls. Yesterday it was only Braska and a friend and the friend’s mom, today it was Kinlee and 3 friends plus 1 other mom.  Kinlee has a serious selection of shades that live in the van, so everyone chose a pair for the ride. KiKi’s class went to the same place, but a different location.  So it was similar but different.  Keeping it interesting, which was ok since two field trips in two days could get boring… Climbing the big hay pyramid… ”Ta-Da!!” For the most part, Kinlee was pretty excited about the whole event. She liked the swing, of course. The zipline was a BIG hit! A little video clip of the zipline… She kept refusing to take a picture with me… showing once again how strangel

31 for 21: Birthday Field trip

Today we took a field trip. My first one in kindergarten! My friend helped me do lots of things. Like climb WAY to the top of this hay tower. Mrs. E was up there and we waved to Mommy from across the way. Since it’s Mommy’s birthday we stopped for a smiley picture together. All my school friends are so nice.  There are 7 other kids in my class.  They’re all way bigger and faster than me, but they always help me and invite me to go with them.  My friend E is one of my favorite buddies. We went around and did some fun things together. She even was my car buddy and her mommy and her rode with me and Mommy in our car. (Mommy note: I can NOT say enough things about the kids in B’s class. They are just amazing.  That has a lot to do with a superb teacher in a really great school.  But the kids themselves are just so sweet, so wonderful with B.  Patient but not too patronizing. They just love her and want her to be doing things with them all the time. She ha
