Long time, No blog

Hello long lost friends! I have been in training this past week and Kevin has been a working, single dad until I returned home Friday evening. I think Kevin and Caroline ate at Chick Fil-A most nights and I know for a fact they had ice cream 4 of the 5 nights I was gone!

Our lack of blogging is not the result of a lack of pictures or funny quotes from Caroline.
She learned her full name this week, as well as all the names of our family members. She called me "Brooke Erin" today, called Nana and Papa today and told them their names are "Butch Henkelman and Phyllis Henkelman" and called Uncle Mike to let him know his full name is "Michael Robin Henkelman." Henkelman is a mouthful...trust me, I know.

So I am back from training and we are back to normal - yay! This post is long - hopefully I will blog more frequently now that I'm back home.

Here is Kev reading to Caroline a couple weeks ago - look how long she is!

Caroline painted this picture for "Mr. Matt", our friend who just left for FBI training in Virginia. Caroline loves Mr. Matt and she gave him this painting the night before he left Dallas. He has her painting hanging on his wall in Virginia. :)

Kevin took Caroline to ChickFilA on St. Patty's Day for craft night. She made me a rainbow picture. When she gave it to me, I asked her what it was a picture of. She told me its a picture of a "chicken nugget". I guess she has a one-track mind.
Kevin has been excited for a long while now to buy Caroline her first kite. We took it to the park yesterday evening and had a good time!



Caroline's patience with the kite was low, so we were soon at the play area of the park.




Today, Caroline wore her Derek Jeter Yankee shirt. It was a proud moment for me, although Kevin tried to teach her to say "Go 'Stros!"


We are dog-sitting the two dogs next door, Blue and Matty. They are the sweetest miniture Australian shepards and we have had so much fun with them since we don't have dogs. I'm thinking the dogs parents (Lindsey and Cap) may not ask us to watch the dogs again after they see Caroline and Farrah walking the dogs in this picture. :)




Have a great weekend everyone!
