Kasey is getting pretty good at riding his bike. He still hasn't quite figured out yet that everytime he looks back to see where I am or if I tell him to slow down and he just glances at me, he falls off the bike.....:) I think he will figure that out eventually.
Today when I dropped him off at pre-school he went right for the sandbox. Only problem is, they took out the sand and put water in the tub:( So, when I left him he was happily playing with the rubber duckies in the water, didn't even notice when I left.
Of course, when I went to pick him up he was wearing a completely different outfit then what I dressed him in this morning :) Water is FUN!! His teacher said he had a very good day, no tantrums or scratching, so he is getting a lot better in school. I am very glad that he has a whole year of pre-school yet. Bye!

So, yeah, it's been a while since my last post. I've been busy ;) Kasey has been doing great, attachment and bonding really haven't been an issue. He knows who his parents are. The last 2 weeks we have been home have been busy with meeting family and friends, getting new toys, learning to ride a bike and a scooter, and learning new English words everyday. He also has been going to pre-school 2 times a week. I'm sure he is driving his teacher crazy:)
We have lots of fun at home, playing with toys, learning his ABC's and 123's. We do have some ups and downs. Last Sunday at church we walked in and he saw the piano. Well, he is obsessed with piano's. He ran straight to the piano, which someone was playing at the time, and tried to help her play. I caught up with him just before he hit his first note. He was not at all happy when I dragged him away from that piano.
We had to take him downstairs where I told him he couldn't touch that piano. He started crying and screaming, which lasted about 5 minutes. When he was done he said he wouldn't touch the piano, but I know he wasn't happy about it.
We have our funny times, too. This morning I got him all dressed up to go to his pre-school class, hat, mittens, backpack. We walked out the door and Kasey stopped right when he stepped on the cement. I told him to keep going, but he just looked down at his feet and then looked up at me with this funny face. I looked down and realized I forgot his shoes!! It was about 35 degrees this morning, so the cement was just a little cold with just socks on!
I'm not going to update the blog all that much, but I will keep it going. I want to thank all the friends and family that have been reading about our journey. It was nice to have that communication when we were in Ukraine. We looked forward to posting and informing people of our day and what Kasey was up to.
I am posting a few pictures, so enjoy!
