3rd Birthday Party

Kaylee's big birthday party with her friends was yesterday at Chick-fil-A. The one near us doesn't technically host parties, but they'll reserve tables for a big group and the kids get free ice cream with a meal purchase. Plus - best part? - the play area has sound proof glass from the dining area!! :-) (Well, best part was probably that I didn't have to clean up my house before and after the party, but the sound-proof play room at CFA was a close second!) Here are a ton of photos from the party!!!

Kaylee is THREE!

Happy third birthday to my sweet, smart, funny, tantrum-throwing little girl! :) We gave Kaylee a dollhouse this morning and she was so excited about it. She had about 30 minutes to play with it before school, and she did not want to leave. I reminded her I was bringing cupcakes and Andy to her class after lunch today, so she relented, but ran right upstairs to play with it as soon as we got home from school.


Here are the cupcake-eating munchkins. I should say frosting-eating, as most left the cake part after devouring the frosting! Andy was the hit of the party, too - as soon as I got there, Kaylee was right by his side showing him off to everyone and after having their cupcakes, all the kids were fighting to sit next to him and watch him sleep - so exciting! :)

Kaylee shares a birthday with one of her teachers, Ms. Laural. She's sitting near Kaylee in one of the cupcake-eating photos.

Big sis, little (but big) brother

I pulled our bumbo (the blue chair seen below) out of the basement today to see how Andy would do in it. I know we put Kaylee in it by 2 months, maybe earlier - I just remember a photo of her in it at 2 months - and since Andy's about the same size now that Kaylee was at 2 months, I thought I'd give it a shot. He did pretty well in it; holding his head up and looking around for a bit before starting to go all bobbly-head. Kaylee had to get in on the photo action, so here's a picture of Kaylee, 2 days shy of 3 years old, and Andy, 5 weeks.

Portrait Session

Our neighbor, Joe Cole of Forrest Cole Photography, took some great newborn photos for us when Andy was 11 days old, as well as some of Kaylee and the family. Here are a few of our favorites!

Sharing & St. Patty's Day

The other day Kaylee shared all her blankies with Andy; what a sweet sister. :-) I should have taken a photo from the side...the pile was probably about a foot high on top of the little guy!!


Happy St. Patrick's Day! I asked Kaylee if she wanted green eggs for breakfast, but she had already told Jamie she wanted a Pop Tart. Then she saw the new jar of pickles I'd just gotten and was so excited that she had to have some for breakfast. So she did end up eating something green. Pop Tarts and pickles...the breakfast of champions!


Happy St. Patrick's Day from our little lady in green!

Congrats from Preschool

Kaylee's preschool director posted the following message on their website the week Andy was born:

Congratulations to the Caesar family on the birth of little Andy. Kaylee is such a proud BIG sister.

I thought that was very nice of them...and Kaylee IS such a proud big sister! :-)

Pic with Bro

Last night Kaylee scooted her little chair next to where Andy was in his bouncy seat and she said, "take my picture with Andy!" Here it is:

Wow - when did she get so big?!??
