Ky Videos

here is some video of Kyan using a spoon for the first time by himself! You will notice that he mostly wants to bang it on his tray but we are working on it! : )

Here is some video of some words that Ky can say:

Kyan- The Builder

Can we Build it? Yes we Can!


How cute is Kyan in his "hard hat"?

"Cheese!"

"I see it now!"- wanting to see his pictures on the camera.

Make-Over For A Good Cause!

From long and luscious....

(These pics are not the greatest... but they are the BEFORE so I guess it ok to post them...)

TO....

Short and sassy!

I cut off 11 inches of my hair to donate to Locks Of Love. This is my 4th time donating hair. I am donating this hair in honor of my friend Kari who has breast cancer. She has been through much more than I could ever handle! She has 3 young children and a husband, she is doing fine right now, but there is always that risk.

Here is my hair that got chopped off:

Trucks and Balloons

We went to Jason's work family picnic. It was full of trucks and balloons so Kyan LOVED it. He could not get enough of either one of them. We all got to ride in an off-road dump truck. Kyan played in a sand pit and Jason and I got to try a back-hoe. We ate some hot dogs and chips. Fun was had by all!
Here are some pictures of the day!

All the kids got these orange hats (perfect for Ky!) and he kept it on all day!

Checking out the fire truck

Checking out the Excavator!

Climbing into the off-road dump truck

In front of the off-road dump truck

Playing by/in the sand pit. He was more interested in the toy trucks than the sand.

Having a bit of lunch.

Yes- Mommy was there too! :)

Here are a couple videos that I took:

You can hear him say "Guck" (truck) in this one at about 8 seconds.

In this one you can see him do his happy dance! : )

Not Back to School

Yesterday was the first time that I haven't gone "back to school" is 26 years! Weird, huh!?! It feels like it is still summer. To be honest, I am not one bit sad about it! I love my reason for not going back! KYAN!

I am technically going "back to school", since I am teaching one day a week at a home school co-op. But it is not the same as getting ready for teaching full time. I don't have a classroom that I have to set up. I didn't have workshop week. I wont have 35+ students in each class (my new classes are capped at 12!)

It is a perfect job for me. My work week is 1 day a week, 4.5 hours for that day -FREE daycare. Yep, a 6 day weekend and 1 day workweek. PERFECT!
