Cutting with Kaitlin

Kaitlin will be in Preschool next year but I found some neat things to do a little extra work at home. I was never a great fine motor student and my cutting always needed work. I got the cutest first cutting kit and Kaitlin is loving her new skill. Of courses he picked the snake as her first project, She cut the circle into a snake and added the stickers. She wants to do every Craft in the box at one sitting so we have to enforce a one craft a day rule.

So proud of her new snake

Her scared face

I also got a dry erase board to practice her letters. This was not a hit but will be great in the coming months.

Together

It is not easy getting these two to take a picture together! But it happened.

 

They loved every second of the photo shoot! I am hoping this is the last month we need our adorable snowman outfits! Hopeful but I am also a realist!

These two will soon be conspiring against me. They just look like they are up to something.

I love his cute little half smile

Almost a smile

There is a big smile
Pretty girl

We will take the snow that is coming tomorrow but we are ready for flowers and playing outside Not in the snow! We we see if March comes in like a lamb or a lion. Either way we hope they don't bring snow!

Princess on ice

Kory and Kaitlin went to Disney on Ice on Sunday. They had the best time and Kaitlin was so amazed the entire time!

We tried to explain to Kaitlin all week that she would see the Disney characters on ice and they would be skating! She told me Friday night she was too nervous and did not want to skate in the show! Poor thing thought she would be on the ice. We told her that she would be watching and was much more excited about the show.

Kaitlin sat in her seat and was attentive for most of the two hour show! She loved seeing Peter Pan, Alice, and the princesses. Tiana and Rapenzuel were crowd favorites as well.

Kaitlin and Kory got a huge popcorn at intermission and Kaitlin told Kory that "mommy is missin me !" Then she confessed she missed me too!

I was so excited that Kaitlin had a great time and so thankful for a wonderful husband who treated our princess to a big date. We were putting a very tired and happy girl to bed and she told us that she was so happy to be home! A special end to a special day!

One week

Colin is 11 months old for one more week! It is amazing to see how big and grownup he seems know and how fast his first year has flown by so fast.

It is exhausting being a baby
