Naptime

Naptime...I've mentioned before that Kate is trying to drop her nap. When she doesn't take a nap, she still lays in her bed and reads books for over an hour. On Friday, I heard her playing and talking for a long time. When I went to get her, this is what I saw...
I thought she was just hiding from me...
But she was OUT!!!

Kate is 3.5

Our Kater-bug is officially 3 1/2 years old! Truthfully, 3 has been a tough one. I think some of it is just the age, but our moving transition did not help. Either way, there has been lots of boundary testing...LOTS! But I feel like in the past month or so, we have seen a big change...for the better. She makes us laugh every day! She is full of energy and spunk. She has started telling "jokes." She will say something silly and then ask, "Is that funny?" She also is quite the little boss when it comes to Brynlee. I hear her telling Brynlee what to do all day long. She also likes to boss me around...i.e. Mommy, close the gate so Brynlee doesn't fall down the stairs (as I am walking up the last stair.) The other thing she says is "Mommy, I think Brynlee wants a vitamin, snack, paci, etc." Well, she didn't but now she does since you keep saying it over and over!
Kate has a very sweet heart. She LOVES other kids. If we are going somewhere, her first question is usually, "are my friends going to be there?"
Happy 3.5 years sweet girl!!!

A Day in Pictures

These 2 definitely have their moments...they want the same book, the same chair, the same color, the same doll, etc. etc. etc. But they also have their sweet moments...

Sassy Spectator

Brynlee has been a trooper during the soccer games. The hardest part is keeping her off the field. Here are a few pics of our sassy little spectator...

playing with Daddy during halftime...
taking Kate her "yoccer ball"

Texas Bluebonnets

A friend told me about this awesome bluebonnet field near our house. We stopped this afternoon on our way home from church to get some bluebonnet pictures. Kate was in a really cooperative mood. She could have played and danced in these flowers for another hour. Bryn was not in such a great mood.

Saturday Soccer

Kate had another soccer game today. It was her best game so far! She kicked the ball a bunch and even took the ball down the field one time to try to score. We are so proud of her!

Aunt Ginny and Uncle Carter got to come to her game today!!!

Kate loved having them there to cheer her on!!!

Rehab

Parker dislocated his shoulder over a month ago. He's been going to rehab but he also does exercises at home. Tonight the girls wanted to help!




Kate's turn...
Brynlee got a band and said, "hat"



Spring!

It's Spring! After 2 days of non-stop rain, we spent all afternoon outside today. Kate got some new sunglasses this morning. She insisted on this pair...


So of course this one had to have a pair. She did not stop saying "glasses" until she got hers...

Ready to go outside...
On a walk...these girls make me laugh...both of them had their sunglasses on their head...
Then we did a little sidewalk chalk (or chark as Kate kept saying) on the patio...
She wants to do everything Kate is doing...


Taking a chalk break...
