Still here! All doing well! Here's an update...
Kase started preschool the end of August. He absolutely loves it! He has a great teacher and has made some great friends. He goes Monday, Tuesday, Thursday and Friday afternoons. At first the no-nap was a big adjustment, but he seems to be doing better these last few weeks.
Lydia is a trooper and has adjusted well to the schedule. After we bring Kase to school she has a few minutes of brother-free playtime before nap time. Most days I have to wake her up to go pick him up, but she doesn't seem to mind! She loves greeting her big brother when he comes into the van!
Mid-August both Keith and I did a race (10K for Keith, 5K for me) in Rock Valley.
Then mid-September we had races in Omaha. Keith ran the half marathon, and I ran another 5K with my sis-in-law Rachel.
Another fun thing is that Kase started going to weekly gymnastics! He's the only boy in his class, but doesn't seem to mind. This has been a perfect way for him to burn off his endless energy...Tuesday nights are great sleeping nights!
We love bike rides! This year we let Kase ride his own bike alongside us. It's definitely a test of my patience and nerves, but he usually does quite well.
This week was homecoming complete with fun dress-up days!
Monday was Pajama Day
Tuesday was America Day
We love to play dress-up! Don't be fooled, this bottom picture is Lydia!
So, as you can see, all is well, kids are growing fast as kids typically do!
