Good Lord!!! Has it seriously been over two months since I've updated my blog???!!! WOW!! I have been slacking!


At least I can say, TRUTHFULLY, that I've been busy...NOT lazy!!!


The Thompson kids have finally gotten over the fact that, not once, did we pull on snowpants (let alone barely hats/mittens/boots) this year due to the wierd fact that we had NO snow and are officially ready for SPRING!!!!


Over the past few months, Keegyn has grown into such a big girl! (Had she not given me sooo much grief in her short little life thus far, I might be a bit more saddened by the fact that I will no longer have any babies in my house anymore!...but that's not the point!) She talks a mile a minute now, and we can pretty much catch every other to every third word! Cale does great with translating for us when we can't figure it out on our own! She is ALL GIRL...picking our her clothes, wanting to wear five different outfits in one day. Her other big obsessions are sunglasses and shoes, singing and dancing!


Cale has also turned into quite a little man...he is now almost done with his first year of preschool...this fall he will begin his trek to kindergarten and the BUS!!!! I have a stomach ache just thinking about it! He has come a loooong way since his first day of preschool, where he would cry and scream at the top of his lungs when I dropped him off (which lasted 6 weeks!) to now absolutely loving school and all the friends he's made! He's gone to birthday parties and been invited on playdates and is having a blast! For all of you who know how much I've struggled with my little guy with starting new things and him being shy/crying around new people, I couldn't be happier or more proud ;) His next big adventure...HIS first friend birthday party...this coming weekend..at the one and only...CHUCK E CHEESE!!! He has 8 little buddies coming and everytime I told him that another friend was able to come, he grinned from ear to ear!!!




Here are a few pics of what we've been up to since SPRING has come our way...


Miss K...dressed herself...in outfit number 3 this day...and is ready to go!Cale is definately my little love bug....I don't think a day goes by where he doesn't tell me how much he loves me!

I'm soooooo lucky to have this little guy!

A day at the park while Cale was at preschool
(as much as Cale and Keegyn love each other, little Miss K secretly LOVES her alone time with mommy)


...Yet another shopping day with Mommy (while Cale was at school!) Notice another set of shades on this one!

Bought on this particular shopping trip, and mostly cuz we almost stole them...literally! She was carrying them around, apparently liked them a whole lot, and we almost walked right out the door with them! (Which was not the first time this has happened..although the first time Keegyn shoplifted we were on vacation in Michigan and once we noticed she was carrying it around, we IMMEDIATELY returned it...I don't even rememeber what it was!!) I'm definately gonna have to start watching her more!


Two more purchases of the day....her top two picks for swimsuits!


And of course, she had to model one of them! Shades and all!



Our St Patrick's Day lunch...McDonald's


Recently, Cale also enjoyed some "Keegyn free" time...while she was away at Grandma and Grandpa B's for a few days, we enjoyed some time at the park, watched some movies, and discovered a new favorite treat at DQ...strawberry sundaes!!!



...With the weather being so much nicer now, and the kids venturing outside almost daily, I'm sure I'll have more updates soon....I promise not to go another two months!!!
