ROCK WALL
This past Saturday the Energy Centre here in Cold Lake had the grand opening of the new Rock Wall. I was so excited to hear that we got a rock wall, one more thing for us to do in the Winter to hep past the time. I decided to take the kiddos all by myself as they had Bounce Houses, sparkle Tattoos, Free Rock wall climbing, and Cupcakes all day long for the kiddos to have fun with. I was so nervous as I thought it was going to be jam packed with people. Thankfully though it wasn't that busy and we got their nice and early. The kiddos got their Tattoos right away, then Macie went climbing, Wade was to little, he was a little bummed but pulled through it. We then went to the bounce houses where the kiddos had a blast. One of Wade's best friends from school was their (Osric) and Macie found some older kids to play with and run around and burn tons of energy. After all that fun, we meet up with Lowry's for some skating. It didn't last to long as Wade was tired and Macie fell hard on the ice. It was such a great day and Kansas even lasted the whole time with no Nap. The kids were so good and we all had a blast. I'm excited as the kids get older and Wade and Macie are more independent and Kansas can handle not having a nap how much more things we can get out and do and not have to leave to come home and nap Kansas.
18 MONTHS!!!
Holy Moly this little cutie is 18 months old! Of course like always it is going by way to fast. I love that she is getting older and more independent and becoming a little kid, but man why does it have to happen so fast! The Toddler stage is the best and worst. They are so busy and Mom's are so exhausted by the end of the day, but they are so stinking fun and adorable. They are learning so much and exploring and growing so quickly. It just amazes me on a daily basis how much she changes and learns. Sometimes I just sit there and watch and observe her, learning new things and figuring things out.
Kansas at 18 months!!
-She is talking up a storm and says tons of words, puts 2 words together a lot and can repeat a lot of what we say. Some of my favourite words she says are... Sit Down, Thank You, Fun, DADDY!!!!, Lily, Yeah. Her voice is so stinking cute. She also does a sign language for Please where she puts her finger to the palm of her other hand. She pretty much gets whatever she wants when she does that, as it is the most adorable little thing on the planet. Especially if she does it to Daddy.
-She is 100% a Daddy's girl, she doesn't even say Mom yet, not cause she can't but she just always has Dad on her mind. When he gets home from work, she runs to the door and yells DADDY!!!, then gives him the biggest, longest hug ever. You want your heart melted, watching Kansas hug her Daddy is pretty stinking amazing!
- She is an amazing eater and for the most part eats anything I give her. Their are a couple things she doesn't like (apples, grapes, broccoli, and sometimes bread). She especially loves oranges, grapefruit, strawberries, blueberries, blackberries, cheese, yogurt, any kind of meat, cookies from Sobey's and any kind of treat.
- Kansas loves to Dance and starts moving her body the second she hears music. Reading books, playing with Macie and Wade, giving Lily kisses, going to play at the energy centre and the parent link centre, she loves being outside, watching Peppa Pig, playing with toys, and just hanging with Mom and Dad.
-She is completely obsessed with her Nani (blanket) and has to have it with her everywhere she goes. She also loves sucking her thumb, and she can't suck her thumb unless she has her Nani in her hand. It's pretty stinking adorable and doesn't bug me at all. Although I might think differently if she is 10 and still doing it.
- We went and saw a Neurologist in November and she had a bunch of blood work done. Everything with the blood work came back good. Her eye's still droop a lot and the Neurologist wants to monitor Kansas on a regular basis until we have made the diagnosis that she just has Ptosis in her eyes, or their is something else going on. We won't know for sure until she gets older and more signs and symptoms start to happen, or hopefully no more signs and symptons happen. From their if the eyes continue to droop she might have to have surgery. It is just a waiting game and lots of prayers that everything will be OK with her, or if their is something bigger going on and she does have Myasthenia Gravis or possibly something else that we will find the right help and the best Doctors to help her.
-Kansas's milestones were walking at 14 months, talking lots these past two months (her first words were Dad, Lily and Yeah). She weighs about 20 lbs right now and although she doesn't have quit the energy that Macie and Wade did she still keeps us busy. She's peed on the potty a couple times, although I don't think she is ready to go hardcore on the potty training yet. She is definitely tiny and I get comments on it all the time, it use to bother me just because their was so much stress in the beginning with her weight, but I try know to just ignore it and think yeah she is tiny but it makes her so stinking adorable.
This little girl is so amazing and we just love her to pieces, she has such a fun, bright personality with a little sass and attitude. She loves saying Thank You and loves helping Mom around the house. She has such a sweet heart and cries if she ever gets in trouble, and loves helping people get their shoes. We sure love you little bug and love watching you grow up.

Macie doing her best
Yesterday we had an opportunity to go to the school during an assembly and listen to Macie's name being called out for being a Student of the Month. We then headed back to her classroom where the teacher presented her with the Award. Macie was given the award for Always being a helper to the other kids in class. I wasn't surprised as Macie is always so amazing and helping those around her. It definitely made for a proud Mom moment. As well over the Christmas break I had challenged Macie to get a book read buy the end of the school year, well she totally blowed my mind away and finished over Christmas break. With all these awesome accomplishments I decided it was time to reward Macie for all her efforts. So last night after Dance Class I picked her up and we went and saw the new Mary Poppins Movie. We both loved it and had so much fun together. Love this girl and so proud of everything she is doing.
