Kyla

Ky was "taking a tubby" in the laundry basket the other day.

Here she is wearing daddy's shoes. She actually got pretty far pretty fast with those boats on!! Very impressive!!!

More Kyla and Laici

Laici is getting so big and still changing everyday. She is starting to smile and play a little bit now.
Oh so sweet!!!

Ky is being a good big sister and helping Laici reach her binki.

Ky is singing to Laici in this one. Laici smiles when Ky starts singing to her and if the is crying she will usually settle down when she hears Ky. It's the sweetest thing.

Just like Mom

Kyla is such a big help with Laici. She loves to hold her and give her kisses all the time. The other day I had put Laici in her swing so I could start dinner and when I walked in there to check on her this is what I found.....

Laici swinging away and George right next to her swinging in Kyla's baby swing. She wanted to do what mom was doing and mom's baby was swinging so Kyla's was too!! She is so funny sometimes!!

Watching Daddy

I thought this was so cute so I had to blog about it. Kyla has started sitting on the counter and "helping" dad when he shaves. She thinks it's so fun to get shaving cream on her face and pretend to shave it off while dad does. It cracks me up when she does this so I had to get a picture!

Kyla had her first haircut the other day. Aunt Kassie came over and trimmed it so it was all even and put a little layer in it so that it doesn't hang in her face quite so much. She was so good and sat very still. She keeps getting combs out now and telling me she is cutting my hair! Just as long as I keep the scissors hidden I think we are ok!

Playing in the Snow!!

When it snowed the first big storm Adam took Ky out and they made a snowman. Ky only lasted about 10 minutes because she wouldn't put on her gloves and her hands got too cold but Adam made a couple of great snowmen!!!

Christmas lights!

She loves to look at Christmas lights!!

She was trying so hard to get away from him, poor thing!!

Baby and Christmas

Well we've been pretty busy for the last month so I haven't had a lot of time to blog. I am finally settling into a routine now that things are getting back to normal. Adam has been off of work since the baby was born and he just went back this week so now I am on my own! Our baby girl was born on Dec. 5th at 4:11 p.m. She weighed 7lbs 7oz and was 20in. long. We named her Laici (not one of the names we were considering when we got to the hospital by the way) She is such a sweet baby. She doesn't really make a lot of noise and Kyla loves her to death. She is such a good big sister. She wants to hold her and give her her binki. When Laici cries Kyla will run up to her and say "Oh Laic, what's wrong?" and kinda pat her belly a little. It's so cute!!

We took Kyla up to see Santa in town a couple of days before Christmas because she had been saying that she wanted to ask him to bring her a bicycle. So we got up there and we were the first in line and she was so excited, but the second that the door opened and she saw Santa she wanted nothing to do with him. She would not let go of me and I had to actually pick her up and take her into his little house. She just cried and wouldn't talk to him but I guess for a two year old he's a pretty scary guy. Then she told everyone that she didn't like Santa very much because he scared her. She's still talking about that and it cracks me up every time she tells me that story.

Then we had Christmas which was fun this year except Adam got sick with a horrible flu bug on Christmas Eve so I packed up the girls and we went to the Pixtons for our usual Christmas Eve party and left Adam to try and get some sleep and have some peace and quiet. We missed him very very much but Ky had a good time playing with all her cousins. Thankfully he was feeling better by Christmas morning so that we could open all our presents with him. We all got bikes from Santa and Ky was pretty excited. She has been riding hers around the house ever since. Then we went to the Graves for our Christmas party and gift exchange and had a good time opening presents and visiting. Ky loves it when she gets to play with her cousins and Laici got a lot of TLC from her aunts and uncles.
