Veggie Tales Live



Last night we went to the Veggie Tales Live Concert. It was an amazing event for the kids. I tried to explain to Bryndan ahead of time that it was not a DVD or movie but a live play. He kind of never got it, but he kept saying that real people and friends would be there and I told him yes. He wanted to see the Pirates who don't do anything very badly and waited the whole show for them but they didn't show up. Oh well, he really had a great time and understood the plot. He was participating correctly and loved the bubbles during the carwash song. He told me on the way home that he had fun and that he liked the songs and the dancing. He also said thank you for his Larry Boy hat. He had asked so nicely for one and waited until after the show to go get it. I thought he did so well for a 3 year old.

Kaitlyn liked the part when they sang and danced to songs she knew, but did not really like all of the dialogue and in between parts. Her biggest problem is that she wanted me to let her down so she could go up on stage and touch the veggies. She was very frustrated in my lap at times. But overall, I think she had a good time too. When I went to go get Bryndan his hat, she pointed at the Bob hat and told me she wanted it, so that is the souvenir that she got. The show lasted until 9 pm so it was a little after their bedtime. We were all tired when we got home but we had a really good time!!!!

Hmmmmm

Ok so nothing really new is going on, I just feel the need to blog...

Bryndan is continuing to do well in school. Yesterday was his teacher home visit, so his teacher and aides came by the house to talk about his progress/goals. I thought it went well. He is communicating so much better that a lot of the discipline problems are gone. Now he just has the typical male 3yr old attitude. Oh well, that I think I can handle most of the time. He is growing and his new pants that I bought for school are already too tight. I can't believe that.

Kaitlyn has been dealing with allergies, but we haven't had a breathing (or lack thereof) scare like we did in March. I have her meds and the nebulizer ready if she needs them. I don't want to be panicky, but I so don't want another hospital stay. She seems to be enjoying PDO again and gets really excited about going.

Shane switched routes at work so now he leaves earlier in the morning. This of course is supposed to lead to him coming home earlier...he is still working on that. He now drives to the warehouse, gets in a company truck and drives to Lamesa and Post stores. Then he drives back to the warehouse, turns in the truck of the day and brings his car home. This saves some wear and tear on his car, but the gas compensation in his paycheck no longer exists. We will see if we come up even.

Other than that not much happening here. I am dealing with allergies too I guess, but I hate meds so I am fighting it with sheer will power...so far I think I am winning.

Yea Bryndan!

So I have to brag about my boy. I talked to his teacher on the phone yesterday and she said he is amazing. They are going to integrate him into the regular Head Start for TWO subjects!!! He is just doing so well! I am so proud of him. He is starting to read and is really just going through the roof with his communication skills. He helped another boy yesterday find his cubby by taking him by the hand and spelling out his name for him. All without the prompting of a teacher. It is just so amazing how far he has come in less than a year. I remember how nervous I was about school and here he is just changing so much. I am so happy for him. He is so excited about all that he knows, because now he can show that to us. The Lord has blessed us so much!!!

Yea Bryndan!!
