Happy Birthday Kade

Kade celebrated his 4th birthday today.  We decided to keep it simple with just family this time around.  I tried my hand at making a homemade Thomas cake and while it didnt turn out too bad it was not picture worthy.  As much as it cost for stuff to decorate the cake I could have bought a Dairy Queen ice cream cake. So from now on its ice cream cakes for us!  As birthdays go this one was pretty traditional.  We sang Happy Birthday, he blew out candles, we ate the cake and icecream and then he opened his presents.  This year Kade received a James engine and also a remote control car.  I think he liked the gifts and hopefully it will give me some mom free time while he plays with them.  :)  Kades my stubborn, crazy, lover boy, all wrapped up into one cute little guy.  Happy Birthday Kade!  (Pics will be added later as Im being kind of lazy today.)

Speech Therapy

Kade made it into Speech Therapy program at Mead Elementary.  I am realived because I know that he needs some help with sentences and sounds.    Anyways he starts today and I will update on his progress.  I think it will be good for him to be in a little more structured environment and next fall  I will enroll him in preschool.  I have been putting it off because of the expense.  (Texas has a income limit to enroll kids in there pre-k programs so I have to enroll him in a private school.)  So far trying to teach him at home has been frustrating for both of us.  I have considered getting a tutor for him but will probably wait and see how he does in preschool and if he makes any progress there.
