No comment..... :)


YEA!!! A new red wagon!!! I love it!!!

Is it only December 14th??? We're practicing!

We just CAN’T wait until Christmas. Seriously, having a child at Christmas time combined with being a child in an adult body makes for crazy excitement! We decided to go ahead and have our little family Christmas today!!! K needs practice for opening all those gifts from the grandparents! I think she was 98% interested in the fun wrapping paper (tearing it, eating it, fighting Abbey dog for it), 1% interested in the cool stuff inside, and 1% “Why am I dressed like this? What’s going on? Where’s my milk???” MOMMY had SO MUCH FUN!!!!







OH MY GOSH!! A Bumbo on a table is dangerous??? WAHAHHAHAAAAAA!!! Grandparents are squirming right now!!! (**promise we always watch her- but SERIOUSLY the best high chair EVER!!)

Happy Holidays

We went to breakfast with Santa this morning! K says Santa is #1!!

The latest...

We finally got to meet RT!!! Love him love him love him!!! He so cute, snuggly, sweet and TINY compared to K!


The belly... 14 weeks along ONLY!!!!


This toy looks okay but.....


I would much rather have this interesting dog toy!!!! Abbey and K have signed a toy sharing agreement.

Thanksgiving

Daddy makes a toast house out of the dressing bread! We all play with our food!


K got to see two of her Great-Grandmas over Thanksgiving!




What the heck is this?? Our Texas dog is confused...

HAPPY THANKSGIVING!!!!

I tried a little bit of everything!!!!

Eating Experiments...

K insists on "eating" everything that we are eating at the table. Here is her attempt at pancakes... very artistic, but not much went into the mouth.


Her other new thing is biting/sucking on clementines. She absolutely LOVES gnawing on them and breaking in through the skin to the juicy center!




She also tries to eat books... this book "My Sheep" is her favorite-- I start to read it and she takes it from me and starts chomping!

Let the holidays begin!

K's sporting her new pants from Grandma K. They are size 12-18 months, but we just rolled them right up and away we go! It's nice to have some pants that are actually long enough to cover her legs!


Shoes have absolutely no function at this age except as chew toys!


Working out my muscles... going to crawl by Christmas!

Stuck

K doesn't crawl yet, but she does roll!! She got stuck in this position!

WWF

Turn your head to the side to view... :)




So we had a play date last week. Picture K with a sweet 6 month old innocently laying on the floor smiling. K proceeds to smack toys together, scream, drop/throw toys at her friend who just looked at her with wide-eyed confusion… I spent most of the time apologizing. Her new things: high pitched screams (exercising vocal cords), banging toys together, hitting herself with toys, throwing toys with much force. We do not have a girly girl! Also note, she is wearing a 12-18 month outfit in this video!! I wanted to enroll her in dance later, but now I’m thinking boxing, wrestling, or shot-put would be better choices.

Friends Share!

Abbey has gotten into the habit of bringing K her toys and then nudging them toward her as a gesture of sharing and dog/baby friendship.


Hey! I think that one's mine!!

Baby K #2 - the first glimpse!

We had our first sonogram today and it looks like I'm about 9 weeks along. There is only ONE baby in there- and it's heartbeat is at 155. All is well so far!! Here's the first picture of our little peanut- scheduled to arrive June 3rd!

BOO!!!

Happy Halloween everybody!!!


Did mommy eat all of my candy again??


Or did YOU do it??

It's beginning to look a lot like....

Halloween??? I just HAD to try it on! We're already listening to Christmas music- I'm a little bit excited!


Pears are SOOOO good... if only I had some more teeth!!!

FREEDOM!!!!

No more akwardly trying to cram K’s carseat into the too small space in the front of a shopping cart!!

Can you tell who's who???

A pumpkin for everyone!

Celery is good for teething??? Okay!

This seems interesting.... are you sure I'm supposed to chew on it?


I will now perform my famous "lip lock down" in rebellion against the celery!


So you think this will make my teeth feel better??


Celery makes me sad!!

You've GOT to be kidding me!!

ARE THERE TWO IN THERE?????
