Halloween weekend

Kylie had a great Halloween weekend! She dressed up as a giraffe and had so much fun! She was into trick or treating complete with saying "trick or treat" and thank you! What a difference a year makes! Kylie was taking her bath the night of trick or treating and she instrcuted me to say "trick or treat". She then proceeded to give me "treats" and instrcuted me to say "thank you!". Saturday we had a princess party to attend. It was a birthday party where you brought gifts to donate to Shriners hospital. It was adorable! We ended the weekend with trick or treating in Wilmore. A very fun weekend!

HalZOOween 2010

We went to Cincinnati Zoo's HalZOOween this weekend and had so much fun! The weather was perfect and Kylie and Natalie looked adorable in their costumes. We had a great day! Later that night the girls got to play in some leaf piles that Pop made for them. Kylie just loves Natalie and "helping" her! I think the girls are going to be great friends! Kylie loves going to her grandparents house and seeing "everyone" as she likes to say!

Kylie's 2nd Birthday!

Kylie Hope turned 2 on October 10! We had a beautiful weekend to celebrate her birthday. Thanks to everyone who came to help us celebrate. Kylie was spoiled with love and wonderful gifts. Kylie's Grandma made an adorable elephant cake which she loved! On Sunday, her actual birthday we went to Boyds Orchard which was a little too much for the birthday girl. She fell asleep half way through the hayride! We are so proud of our little girl. She has brought so much love, joy and laughter to our lives. Happy 2nd Birthday Kylie Hope!

Leaves, haircut and well visit

We are enjoying our Fall break this week as we prepare to celebrate Kylie's 2nd birthday! On Sunday Kylie LOVED running through the leaves and "crunching" them! On Tuesday we took Kylie to get her first haircut! She picked out a pink jeep to sit in and let the lady trim her hair. It wasn't a major cut, she just evened up her hair in the back. Thye made us a cute little certificate with her picture and some locks of hair. A fun milestone! Today we took Kylie for her two year well visit with Dr. Mack. She checked out nice and healthy. She weighed in at 22#11oz, was 34 inches long and her head measured 18 1/2. Can't beleive my baby is going to be two on Sunday. I am feeling very blessed to have such a healthy, happy toddler.

Fall is here....

Fall has arrived! I am not sure where the last month has gone but I am ready for the nice Fall weather. It's almost October which means our sweet girl is getting ready to turn two! Kylie has been very into her painting lately. She loves to paint and then display her work. She is also gotten into the Clifford books. She loves to "read" them to her babies or her Minnies! She is full of spunk and energy! Hope to have a bigger update soon. Happy Fall to everyone!

Busy days!

Now that school is back in session I have not been very good at posting new updates. SO I thought I would upload a few pics from the last couple of weeks. Kylie has been busy, busy, busy! She has adjusted much better to being back on a"work" schedule then I have done! She loves her friends! We have also gotten to spend some time with family. Life is busy these days but so much fun!

Goodbye summer break......

The summer (break) has come to close and it is back to work tomorrow. I feel so thankful for the wonderful summer we have had. Here are some of the highlights: welcoming Natalie into the world, taking Kylie on her first beach trip, several visits to the zoo, lots of trips to visit Grandma & Pop, lazy days at home, playdates, pool time, golf outing, the list could go on and on! We seem to stay outside at night until dark (which means Kylie is way off schedule) but what fun we have had! Our little girl is a ball of energy, independent and oh so much fun! What a summer!
