"Ali and Roberto"

Daddy's favorite show is "The Bachelor" or "The Bachelorette"...whichever season is it. I got to watch a little bit on Ali - but did not get to know her as much as I got to know Jake last season! Well, Nama and I were on the computer the other day and I saw a preview for the show and we watched it OVER and OVER again! I loved Ali's shoes and her dress! It made such an impression to me that today I changed my name to "Ali" and Nama's name to "Roberto" (her fiance).

I made everyone call me Ali today! In fact, I asked Nama and Mommy to buy me Ali's shoes.

Actress

So, you all know I love "The Wizard of Oz". I have seen it many times, but do you know that I can act out lots of different scenes? Some of my favorite to act out are:
- When Dorothy falls asleep in the poppy's and Glenda makes it snow and Dorothy wakes up
- When Dorothy falls in the pig pen and they help her out
- When Dorothy pours water on the Wicked Witch of the West and she melts
- When Dorothy says "there's no place like home" and then wakes up in her house in Kansas
- When Dorothy, the Scarecrow, the Tin Man and the Lion all sing "You're off to see the Wizard"

I just love to pretend. I am a little actress!
Love,

"Mom"

I am becoming a really big girl. So big that I have started to call my mommy "mom" more and more. I think she likes it, but is a little sad at how fast I am growing up! I still call her "mommy" too though!

POTTY!!

Today is a super BIG day! I went potty on the potty 3 times! Once at Nama's and then I peed once and pooped once at my house! I have become even more interested in the potty since I had my playdate with Sydney yesterday. Sydney is really good at using the big girl potty. In fact, she climbs up on the potty like a little monkey! I use my step stool and my potty seat...it is starting to be so much fun! In fact, I was so excited about it tonight that I went to lots of potty's to try out my skill! M&M's here I come!

I am becoming such a BIG girl!

Swimming Lessons & Gymnastics

Mommy and Daddy signed me up for Swimming lessons this morning! I am so excited to show all of the kids how I can jump off the side of the pool and blow bubbles in the water. In October, when swimming lessons are over, I'll start Gymnastics. I hope they let me wear my Dorothy dress.

Love,

Chiefs Training Camp

Daddy, Mommy & I went to Chiefs Training Camp today in St. Joesph, MO! We had a lot of fun. It was a hot one though. Below are some pics from camp.

The first picture below is the Training Camp Code of Ethics which basically says you can't tell the Chiefs about how bad they were last year.

Here's a picture of Mommy and I soaking up the 95 degree temps!

Here is a picture of Dwayne Bowe and the Chiefs 2nd round pick Dexter McCluster (#22). Daddy told me that Bowe dropped too many passes last year and that is why #22 is standing behind him this year.

Charlie Weiss below - the old Notre Dame head coach. He just had knee surgery and is standing in the middle of the field with a cane.

Did I mention they had a fan that blew water at people at Chiefs camp? Believe me, I took full advantage of this opportunity.

Fun Day!

Today was Nama’s real birthday and we celebrated by going to City Market and then going to the Crown Center fountains! It was such a fun day! We walked around and bought lots of fruit, vegetables and flowers at City Market. We even ate at a fun Italian market where I got a yummy turkey leg! I almost rode the train – but then I go t scared. I think I will like it when I am 3!

My favorite part of the day was the fountains at Crown Center! It is right at Hallmark where mommy works! We put on my bathing suit and Daddy showed me how to run through the fountains! I was a wild girl once I saw what to do and I ran in and out of the fountains like a pro! I giggled, got so excited and had so much fun! I played and played I the fountains! I can’t wait to go back!
Love,
Kate
