Haircuts

Casey girl and I went to get our hair cuts at Supercuts. Here are the before and after shots of Casey. I will put my shots and some of Casey's haircut later. When I put her in the chair, she was unsure of the whole thing. She was okay.. did not fuss or cry. What a big girl! It was her first haircut. Here is her certificate she got from her haircutter. Kaleb will not be getting his first haircut in a long time.. Not ready to let go of his long, curly locks.

Selaco High School Reunion

Gabe, the kids and I went to my Selaco reunion. I got to see some of my old friends that I have not seen in a long time.. I saw a teacher and one of my favorite interpreter. It was nice to catch up with some of them. I exchange addresses and email addresses with some of my friends. :)

When I would introduce the kids to everyone, they would hide their faces. Kaleb is usually friendly but was shy today. Casey was in her usual shy nature.

We took variety of fresh fruits for potluck.. we noticed most ate the watermelon and grapes. There were lots of chicken, pasta salad, fruit salad, salad, cookies, brownies, chips, a big strawberry cake oh so yummy!

I took a few pictures but the batteries in the camera died on me.. I should have changed the batteries before I left @@ thankfully two friends will send me some pictures of us with them. I may ask Launa if she will send some reunion pictures to me. oh those who were at the reunion, would you please send me some pictures. :)

Casey and Kaleb had a blast, running around, getting into things, just having fun. They were getting into the ice that was dumped on the grass and had fun. They ate some food but perferred to run and play.

C and K's wbv and wic appt

Tuesday was the babies' wbv.. had to see the same doctor I saw last time for kaleb. He was much better. @@ Maybe because Gabe was there.. dunno.. anyhow, Casey got one shot and Kaleb got two. They had their finger pricked for anemia.. both are fine. don't remember the head circ. the nurse said that the head circ are about the same with both of them. Oh and the doc said that Casey is underweight but not too concern about it. Gabe and I are not concern about it since we look at the overall of why she is slowly gaining weight.
here are the stats:
Casey girl: 27 1/2 lbs and 35 inches tall
Kaleb: 22 lbs and 32 1/2 inches tall

WIC appt went okay.. went to a class and got the checks.. didn't say anything about Casey being underweight.

my thought!

I wish I did this a long time ago when I was pregnant with both kids and continue on. I would have kept track of their milestones and write something about them each day. I would have easily write in their baby books when I had time or just print it out and put it in the book.
No milestones today but they had their baby well visits. Will talk about it in tomorrow's blog. :)

Casey's language & speech and signing time

One funny thing Casey says is my tummy is not full when she is still hungry. I just smile when she says that. :) I am sure there are other funny sentences she says. Just can't think of it right now.
She still can't say her r in combinations like green, tree, drum. She learns new words and signs everyday.
Today, she learned some new signs of word she knew from signing time. She learned the signs for colors, some action words, some veggies and fruits.

Happy Mother's Day!

Today is my 4th Mother's Day! I got one gift, one e-card and two text messages. oh and my daughter saying happy mother's day to me. So sweet! Oh and Gabe had to work from 11:30 am to 6 pm.
Here are some pictures of the kids. Will have to wait.. can't find a certain picture right now. Will do it tonight after I get back from Denny's.

Okay can't find it so here is one Gabe took last night at Denny's. And a picture of a cute artwork Casey made with help from her grandma F.

Chuck E Cheese on Casey's birthday

On April 29th in the evening, the four of us went to Chuck E Cheese for Casey's birthday. My mom would have came but she was not up to it. We spend 3 hours there, playing games, eating pizza, drinking sodas or lemonade, riding. We decided to get a cake and let Casey pick what kind. Chocolate.. go figure. :) Here are some pictures of the kids. thought I took more of Kaleb. :(

Here are some scanned pictures we got there. We used tokens to take those pictures. We took two each of the kids, riding with Chuck E. And there were a thing that draws of us. Here is one of me and Gabe together and the babies together. We had to sit the kids on our laps to sit them higher for the pic.

Casey's 3rd birthday

I was not sure where to start but I think I will start with Casey's birthday. Everyone had a blast, especially the 6 children. We had mexican food for lunch and the kids played with toys and had a blast playing in the pools. I will post a few pictures of the cake. Gabe and I bought it from Ralph's. Casey loved the cake.

while we were singing happy birthday to Casey, she got all shy and leaned against me. I had to help her blow out her birthday candles.
