Packed and ready to go....

Today I packed myself for my sleepover at Anna and Ashley's house.  Problem is, it is not yet officially scheduled and likely not until next week.  Hmm...oh well, at least I am ready.  I packed socks, underwear, clothes, PJs, 3 movies, a sleeping bag and some toys.  We are going to have SO MUCH FUN and I CAN NOT WAIT!

Taylor's Birthday Party

Here is everyone in the picture:  Back row (left to right):  Me, Addie, Rapunzel, Hadley.  Front row (left to right): Landry, Taylor's neighbor (I did not know her), Taylor, Addison (my best friend)!

It was such a great party!

Anna's Spring Musical!

Nama and I went to Anna's Spring Musical at school today.  I got to watch her perform with her Day Out class.  It was really fun and Anna did a really good job!  I could even hear her voice singing the songs!  Tonight I told mommy "it was so cute watching Anna today at her performance.  She is getting to be such a big girl."

Mommy thinks it is funny how I act like such the BIG cousin sometimes!  I love my cousins!

Love,

Visit from the Tooth Fairy!

I was so excited to go to bed Monday night as I could not wait for the Tooth Fairy to visit.  I put my tooth in my tooth pillow, put that pillow by my pillow and slept with about 10 babies...we were all waiting for her!

I woke up at 2am calling out for mommy. When she came to my room I told her I could not find my tooth pillow.  It turns out the Tooth Fairy put it on the bottom of my bed with a few wonderful presents!  She left me a tooth brush, tooth paste, $5 and a Fancy Nancy book about losing a tooth!!  She even left me a wonderful not covered in glittery pixie dust!!  It was a note right from her desk on real Tooth Fairy stationery!  

I fell back to sleep and when I got back up in the morning I could not wait to check out all my treasures!  I even brushed my teeth with my new tooth brush!  

Take a look at the special letter she left me!

Love,

Kate

P.S.  I am not sure if I have documented which tooth I lost:  it was my bottom middle/right one.  I lost it on Monday, April 22nd at Nama's house...around 5pm!!  I pulled it out all by myself!

"Play Rough"

I love to play rough with Dad!  My favorite place to play rough is on mom and dad's BIG bed!  I must ask him to play rough 15 times a day and it goes something like this....

"You wanna play rough you little Harry?" (yep, this is what I say to dad when I want to play rough)

Then I may ask him to "try one of your new moves on me" (then he will put me in some kind of crazy wrestling hold while I giggle and try to get out)

Then I will say "I am ready to get out daddy...."  he will ignore me and then I will say "I am really ready to get out daddy"

Then he will let me out of the crazy new hold and I will say "let's play rough some more, you little Harry.  Try another move on me."

That will go on and on for awhile until one of us decides we are done.  It is usually dad that says we are done and then this is what usually happens....

Dad says "okay Kate, we are done playing rough now".

I will ignore him and keep playing rough.

Dad will say "we are done Kate, stop playing rough"

I will ignore him and keep playing rough.

Dad will say "Kate, stop playing rough or it is time for bed"

I will ignore him one more time....

Dad will then pull some totally cool flip over "play rough" move on me...."heehee, I got him" - I think to myself

I will do some crazy kick/punch move and land on his head.

I will then get in trouble because I was supposed to stop playing rough

Mom wonders why I have not caught on by now.  Guess it is because it is just SO MUCH FUN to play rough!

I love playing rough with my "Little Harry Daddy"

It's Out!!!

It is official...I lost my VERY FIRST TOOTH!!!  It just started wiggling 2 days ago and it already came out!  I  was at Nama's house today busy wiggling it with my tongue and fingers.  It fell out at 5pm.  I just pulled it out all on my own!  Woohoo!  I'm a big girl!  The tooth fairy gets to come tonight!  Woohoo!!

I went to be right at bedtime so that the tooth fairy would come as soon as possible!

Daddy said I am so big that we should go get my ears pierced and go shopping for a bra!  He thinks he is so funny!

Chalk Art!

Last night mom and I had a blast making chalk drawings on the driveway!  It was SO cool!  We did a city skyline, lots of streets (we even named them: Metcalf Ave, Antioch Rd, 42nd St, Nieman RD), cars on the streets, we made our house, the sky, some rain and I even made Taco Bell and a parking lot!  It covered almost ALL our driveway!!  We are going to keep adding on to it!  I had so much fun!

FREEZING Soccer!

 It was FREEZING during yesterday's soccer game!  Everyone had on winter coats and we would slip them off for the game and during our sit times we would slip them back on! Brr!!  Today was a MUCH prettier and warmer day for soccer!

Soccer Girl!

I had 2 soccer games this weekend!  Nama Vicki and Papa Dick came to my game yesterday.  It was fun to have an audience!  I really had a lot of fun.  Out team did really good!  The lesson I learned after this game was to be more aggressive and to go after the ball!  I was a bit timid during the game.

Today's game I did a great job at applying that learning and I did such a great job!  I went after the ball and kicked it a lot!  Our team won (although no one officially keeps score)!  Nama and Papa came to this game and got to see me as a soccer star!  I learned how to throw the ball in and start the play off my kicking it to my team mates!

My doll Taylor has a soccer outfit and she and I both wore them.  She rode with me to the game, but stayed in the car during the game...cheering me on from the parking lot!

Kate

Cheer Performance!

I had a cheer performance today at Village Shalom Nursing Home.  It was lots of fun.  We performed all our new cheers and 2 new dances.  I was front and center and did a great job at everything!

This was a busy weekend....gymnastics and soccer yesterday and then cheer and soccer today!  Boy were we busy!

BIG NEWS!

You are not going to believe it, but tonight I was eating some fruit and it felt funny.  I told mom and she checked it out....guess what?????  I have a loose tooth!  I am SO EXCITED!!!  HOW AWESOME IS THAT!?!  I am such a big girl and can't believe it.  Mommy just can't believe I am big enough to lose a tooth. 

For dinner we had corn on the cob and I would not eat it....not ready for the tooth to fall out just yet!
Love,
Kate

Spring Performance

Last night I had my Spring Musical at school!  I was really excited all day for it and could not wait to perform for everyone!  I kept my songs a secret from mom and dad and told them they had to wait for the performance!

Nama, Papa, Aunt Jenny, Anna, mom and dad were all in the audience cheering me on!  Papa surprised me...he was on a business trip and got home just in time to watch me!  We sang a bunch of songs.  Mom and Dad said they could even hear my voice!  I did a really good job singing and doing all the sign language!

After the performance, Nama, Papa, mom, dad and I went to Will Jenny's for a yummy late dinner!

Love,

Kate

Worlds of Fun!!!

Today was SO AWESOME!  It was a beautiful day, so mommy, daddy and I went to Worlds of Fun!  This was opening weekend and our season passes were burning in our pockets...FREE entertainment!  Thanks for everyone who got us the season passes for Christmas...such a great gift!

We did lots of fun stuff!  The log ride is still my all-time favorite, although the fun kids stuff at Camp Snoopy is pretty cool too!  Daddy was able to ride the big roller coasters, which he thought was awesome!  t was really nice because it was not too busy, so the lines were short.

Mom and I thought that the top-your-own snow cone machines were the COOLEST things ever!  we put cherry, grape and tigers blood all on our snow cone!    We are So excited that the weather is getting warm enough for snow cones!

Take a look at our fun pictures from our day!

Can you see Daddy in the orange shirt....he sure was high!

Love,
Kate
