Artwork

On Wed. night, Kylah went to the 2-3 year old class for the first time. She really enjoyed it!! Here is her "water paint" picture. The second picture was made this morning in class.

Happy Thanksgiving - Part 2

Last night, we had supper at Pop Pop and Grandma's.

Happy Thanksgiving - Part 1

Today for lunch we went to Nana & Poppy's.

Kylah enjoyed eating the turkey - that was about all she would eat,

but we were so glad to keep hearing her ask "More, Pease!"

Kylah listening to her new CD player.

After supper, we played cards, Kylah was driving with a cover for a burner.

Playdate at Kylah's

We had a big playdate at our house this morning. Kylah had a lot of fun seeing her old friends Dastin and Zoe. We were really glad that Chloe got to come too!!

The girls in purple!

Dastin & Zoe enjoyed riding on the horse. (Kylah actually took the picture of Dastin!)

Snack Time!!

This was taken yesterday morning after church: Kylah and Chloe - such good friends!

Giddy Up

Riding her horse - thanks Bradley and Sam!

After I emptied the clothes from the basket, Kylah got in and cuddled up - it was too cute not to take pictures of!!

Visiting

This afternoon, we went to visit Darren and Shanna. Kylah had a great time playing and being buddies with Shanna - she had to do everything that Shanna was doing...

Riley had to ride, too!!

Doing puzzles.

Moving

On Saturday, Bradley and Sam moved to Bowling Green (to be closer to us, of course). Kylah and I didn't get to help since it was cold and rainy, but when they all got to town, we went to their new "house" to help unload and put some stuff away.

Kylah was a lot of help, she moved the basketball several times!

Trying to decide where to go eat - Poppy didn't like the Mexican request.

Kylah needed her bow in before we could go, Shane is now an expert bow-putter-inner!

Fun in the Leaves

This afternoon after Chloe left, Kylah and I went outside. She wanted to pick up leaves, so I decided to have a photo shoot. I had been wanting to get some pictures of her playing in the leaves, so it worked out great. (It wasn't as dark as the pictures make it look.)

22 months, tomorrow

One year ago...

Today...

I can hardly believe that in 2 short months, my baby will be 2 years old! My how time has flown! Talk about 22 great months, these have been the best of my life!!! I am so thankful for Kylah and how smart she is, how helpful she is, how much she wants to please us (most of the time), and not to mention how cute she is. We are so blessed!!

Kylah is...

• talking so much these days - I remember back to the days that I couldn't wait for her to say something that we could understand, now some days I wish she would not talk quite so much.
• singing herself to sleep some nights - it will bring tears to your eyes listening on the monitor after I have read her a story, said her prayers, and told her good night.
• getting pretty good with her colors - she likes to point to something and tell me what color it is, she is almost always right, but even when she isn't, she does tell me a color.
• spelling her name!! Well, actually she spells K-Y and that is as far as she goes, occasionally she remembers the L that comes next, but I'm still excited.
• good at telling me to "dop" (stop) at a red light and telling me to go when the light turns green.
• a little mommy. She loves to feed, burp, rock and even diaper her babies.
• starting to know her shapes. She gets a little confused on the difference between a circle and an oval, but almost always gets diamond, triangle and square correct.
• loving going to Big Red School!!
• sometimes shy these days, especially around people that she hasn't been around for a while.
• counting to 4 - she usually skips 1 and just says, "2, 3, 4" (even if there are only 3 things or if there are more).
• my pride and joy!!!

Happy Birthday, Poppy

Looks like Phoebe is ready for a diaper change!
