Sesame Street Live

A few weeks ago we took Landon to see Sesame Street Live. He absolutely loved it! During the first act, he stayed on one of our laps. We had 3rd row seats so we were VERY close to the characters. But, by the second act, Landon was dancing in the aisle and he even gave Zoe a high five! This show got him even more excited to go back to Sesame Place this summer. We can't wait!! As you will see in the pictures, Count went with Landon to the show and always goes with him EVERYWHERE!!

The last couple of weeks

We have been pretty busy the last couple of weeks. We have had a few nice days that we have tried to take advantage of, but not many. It is usually around 50 here still and really windy. We are hoping the weather that the rest of you have been enjoying pretty regularly moves our way soon!

Landon is growing up so quickly. He talks ALL the time and absolutely loves to sing songs. He sings non-stop when we are in the car (or whenever there is music on) and it is so cute! He is supposed to be taking a nap right now, but instead he is playing/singing in his crib. I just went to listen at the door and he was singing "Happy Birthday" to Count! When he got done with the song he said, "Okay Count, your party's ready!" So funny! He also has been potty on the big boy potty twice in the past couple of days. The plan is to start the potty training when I am done with school, at the beginning of the summer. But, we figured it isn't a bad idea to get him interested and ready right now. I think he really is just interested in his Sesame potty seat that he has, but whatever works I guess! Have a great week and enjoy the new pictures!

Wearing his Illinois hat....he has loved this lately and worn it a lot. He looks so cute in his hat, but so grown up!

Showing us all his friends and his work bench

Last Sunday it was really nice out (but really windy) and Landon decided to help Daddy wash the cars

So cute

What a good little helper

Sunday night Landon had a slight fever and he still had one Monday afternoon., as well as a cough and runny nose. He had bronchitis about a month ago, so I took him to the doctor just to make sure everything was okay. It turned out that he had bronchitis again. He got medicine, but his fever spiked to 103 that night. Landon is constantly on the go and this is how he spent 2 hours on Tuesday night. Poor little guy.

Thursday his cough was worse and he had a fever again. Since he was on medicine, I didn't think that should happen so we went back to the doctor on Friday. We found out that the medicine didn't work and he also developed an ear infection in two days. Now we are on different medicine so hopefully it takes care of it. This is Landon watching tv on the couch Thursday afternoon. He has slept great the whole time and with the exception of Tuesday night, we can't even tell that he is sick. He is a little trooper!

So excited and proud after going potty on the big boy potty!

New pictures and updates

It has been awhile since we updated the blog, so we thought we would give you some new pictures of Landon. He is getting to be such a big boy. He is talking all the time and LOVES Sesame, Handy Manny and his tools, singing songs, taking baths, jumping on his trampoline and playing with the itouch or our iphones. He also loves to play outside so we are hoping we get some nice weather soon. We are definitely tired of the cold around here. Last Friday we went to Chuck E Cheese for the very first time. Landon had a blast. He ate lots of pizza and had so much fun on all of the rides. He especially liked putting the tokens in the rides. He is looking forward to going back again. Hopefully all of you are doing well too. Enjoy the pics!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY, PAPA MCQUALITY!!!

Birthday Weekend

Friday was Landon's 2nd Birthday and we got 6 inches of snow! We went to the doctor in the morning (90% height 75% weight) and finished getting ready for his party in the afternoon. Landon was so excited this week while watching us make his cake and cupcakes. Grandparents, Uncle Jeremy, and cousin Ade all arrived late Friday afternoon, and Landon had a great time playing Friday night. Saturday was finally party day! Everything went very well. We had a great turn out and Landon had lots of fun playing with friends, opening his presents, and of course eating his Count cupcake.

Birthday Week

Today starts the homestretch for getting everything ready for Landon's Party next Saturday. Last night we took him to get his 2-Year pictures. He did great! Aunt Cara is getting here today to watch Landon this week while she is on Spring Break. We will be very busy baking, and getting the house ready. We will post pictues and videos from the party next weekend.
