30th Birthday

I celebrated my 30th birthday last weekend. SIGH...

My actual birthday was on Sunday, but on Saturday night Jed threw me a surprise party. My dearest friends were all in attendance and we had a blast. I wish we had been better at taking pictures. Alas...
There are a few posted on Facebook, if you really want to see. (Please ignore how awful I look though because had I known I would have a party being held in my honor, I would have made an effort to look prettier, instead of just bumming it in Saturday clothes).
This one is funny though.
Someone brought a Margarita machine and she made regular ones and then also non-alcoholic strawberry margaritas. Keller LOVED those.
For some reason, he has also taken a liking to his Bumbo chair again. It has been in his closet for months because he got too chubby for it. But, he somehow managed to drag it out last weekend and now all he wants to do is sit in it and play.


Two year olds...There is not much to say to that...
He also has a few new words:
-While he has been saying Thank You since he learned to talk, he now says Welcome after someone says Thank you.
-He now calls me Mommy instead of Mama
-He has learned that Daddy is the same as Jed and enjoys calling his dad by his first name
-And finally, whenever you say Keller like you are calling to him, he promptly said What!  just like a smart-alechy teenager would. Oh, boy...

Terra Verde sings at Rivermont

I say it all the time, but I will say it again--we are SO HAPPY that we have found Terra Verde Discovery School for Keller to attend. This year has been amazing. We have gone from having a child who HATED going to school everyday the last two years to having a little boy who can't wait to get there in the morning.  His teacher, Ms. Lindsay Berryhill, is an amazing woman who has gotten Keller to tune in and love learning.  Among the wonderful things he has done in first grade this year, including learning Mandarin, having a lemonade stand to earn money to build an animal hospital for dramatic play, visiting The Orr Family Farm, having a manners lunch at Charlestons, and many more things, he also had the opportunity to sing Christmas carols with his 89 other school mates at Rivermont Retirement Home.  The seniors at the home were so entered by these children and we were truly impressed with how well they all behaved. The singing was excellent, but what was truly inspiring w...

It's been ENTIRELY too long!

Clearly Keller is distraught that it has been so long since my last posting. It has been almost two weeks since my last blog post. These last two weeks at school have been so busy that when I come home at night the last thing I want to do is get on the computer. Plus, working so much has not left me ample time to get good shots of Keller. When we're playing and he does something funny I never have the camera around. However, as a good change of pace I do have some good video taken from this weekend. My mom keeps Keller 2-3 days a week and for some reason she decided the boy does not have enough toys. As if...(haha, throwback to Clueless). So, she decided Keller needed to work on being the next Tiger Woods (before all the you know). Anyway, this is Keller with his very first set of golf clubs. At first glance, he seems like a natural... Doesn't it look like he hit the ball right into the cup and is now getting the ball out of his hole-in-one? We he did get it in the cup ...
