Playhouse Disney Live!

Almost 2 weeks ago I took Kaycee and Logan to see Playhouse Disney Live at the Palace. The characters from Mickey Mouse Clubhouse, Pooh and Friends, Little Einsteins and Handy Manny were there. My kids don't watch these shows very often, but they really enjoyed it. The show was at noon, so I was a bit leery about taking Kaycee due to her missing her nap. But wow, the two of them were great!! I was so proud of them. They really enjoyed the show and sat nicely and watched the whole thing. It made me feel good to see them happy and so well behaved. Other kids (whose parents probably spent over $100 on souvenir crap for them) were whiny and bratty. It does not pay to spoil your kids!! My camera did not like the dark so much, so this is about the best picture I have. My pictures of the kids didn't turn out so well.

Looking for Pumpkins!

Before Halloween (of course) we went looking for pumpkins at one of our local farms (we have plenty of them very close to us). We got three wonderful pumpkins and carved them a week later. I'll show the results in a later post. I love the picture of Logan with his face showing in the cut-out. It looks fairly real (at least to me)!

Kaycee likes pudding!

Do you think Kaycee likes chocolate pudding!!??

Another First for Logan!

Ok, so this occurred in mid September, but I never blogged about it. So.... Logan had his first dentist appointment and did great! I can remember Bailey crying during his. It was a good thing Logan was so brave, because I was having my teeth cleaned at the same time and didn't even get to see him! Bailey was there with him and was very supportive. I was able to run next door to get a quick picture when we were both done. Keep up the great brushing Logan! Logan is all about hygiene! He spends much time in the bathroom brushing his teeth, brushing his hair and even occassionally putting on deoderant! I hate it when my 4 year old smells like Old Spice!

The Cider Mill

A couple of weeks ago we made our fall visit to the cider mill. We went to Blake's and it was over 80 degrees outside! I would have rather waited for a crisp fall day, but oh well! We had a good time and enjoyed their fresh cider and donuts. I only have a few pictures due to my camera misbehaving.

Big Girl Kaycee!!

Sunday afternoon we decided that it was time (whether I was ready or not) to move Kaycee out of her crib. She is doing so well with potty training, that we want her to be able to use the bathroom at night if she needs too. There have been several instances where she takes her pull-up off and pees in her bed. So the potty is really the only reason. I would keep her in the crib until she's 3 if I could! This is difficult because she is my baby. I decided to use the crib as a daybed instead of using the toddler bed we have. I think the crib looks much cuter and more girly. Only problem being, there is no side railing to prevent her from falling out. So she has been in the "big girl bed" for 2 nights and 1 nap. She has done excellent and hasn't really gotten out (except she must have at one point during nap because she had a couple of books with her). Very early this morning I heard her crying and went up to check on her. She fell out! I have a couple of blankets and pillows on the floor, so I just covered her up and let her sleep there. I'm going to see how the rest of the week goes. If there is too much falling, we will be getting rid of the crib and putting the toddler bed in her room. I can't believe she is getting so big!!

Me, my boys and the Lions!

Last Sunday I got the priviledge of taking my boys to the Lions game. Mark was sick so it was just me and the boys! We had fun (despite the loss, again) and the boys were great. I forgot my camera and I don't think I can get my camera phone pics onto the computer :( They were cute pictures too! I knew I should have turned around to get the camera. Gee, we were only in our seats 45 minutes prior to kick off! So here are some pictures from one of last years games. It was Logan's first game.

Tomorrow Mark is taking Bailey to his first Michigan game. Bailey can't wait to see the Big House. I'm sure I will be unable to convince Mark to take the camera.
