Potty training

Diaper changing became extremely difficult.  Kassandra didn't like when she had to be changed and kept trying to take off her diaper when she had to go.  So we bought a potty and thought we would give potty training a try.  She loved sitting on the potty and was so happy when she went in it.  However this did not last.  After about a week she had enough of the potty and happily went back to going in her diaper.  Oh well.  We will try again at a later date.

First Fat Burger

Fat Burger has some of the best food.  We don't go often so it's a treat for us when we go.  Thanks to Kassandra it was one of my cravings during my pregnancy.  Time for her to experience it first hand...

 Looks so good now I want some....

Happy Birthday Connor!

Connor had his birthday party at chuck e cheese.  It was fun to watch the kids play with all the toys and to have a good time with family. 

1st OU game of the Season

Finally!  We love our football and Kassandra loves letting us know when there is a touchdown!  Go OU!

Gymboree

Thanks to Groupon we got a few weeks of Gymboree for less than half price.  I've been wanting to find other things for Kassandra to do so I thought that this would be a perfect opportunity to check them out.  We went to the first class all excited....only to find that the class was very boring - and not just to us.  Kassandra and her friend Lucy wanted nothing to do with the class.  (So glad that Kassandra had her friend Lucy to hang out with other wise I'm not sure what we would have done).  As the weeks went on Kassandra did enjoy being there and playing with the stuff but still didn't care for the class.  Most of the stuff they taught Kassandra already knew since we did a lot of the stuff at home.  So our lesson is that Gymboree is not for us.  We will look for the next good deal.

Progression of our back yard

Since we are spending more time at home now (since I'm babysitting) I really wanted to invest in a back yard play area for the kids.  Everything is used and the rubber mulch we got on clearance.  This whole back yard at regular price would be over $1,000.  We did it for under $300 and a bit of sweat and heavy lifting.  All worth it for the amount of fun the kids have with it.
