My Doll Baby

Birthday fun

We had our Easter Egg Hunt a week early since Brian's

parents came to town for Kayla's birthday.

Yes Jack is holding a Halloween bucket...but he didn't seem to mind.

Enjoying the fruits of their labor.

Kayla likes to read the mail when it comes!

Princess cake....

for my princess!

mmmm cake!

Kayla was a pro this year at opening all her gifts!

Hanging on to her new baby while Jack and Isaac enjoy the new aquadoodle.

Dr. Jack

This year Brian took Jack to the car show and they both had a great time!

Brian said it took some convincing for Jack to believe the lion was not real.

Jack was very excited this was like the car on his shirt.

Oh the thoughts a little boy can think...

This was Jack's "Are you sure the motorcycle is off Dad?" smile.

Nightlife with Daddy :)

Our Sunday School class recently went bowling and all the kids had a great time!

What's gonna happen Daddy?

Mommy and a very squirmy Kayla

This picture is a little fuzzy but it still makes me smile. Kayla was very proud of herself for getting to help push the ball down the alley.

Randomness

Mommy's big helper.

Blue eyes

Cheesin' for daddy.

What do you mean I need a bath mom?...

Bath time bubble fun :)

Will Update Soon...

I usually have a rule that I will not post to my blog unless I have some pictures to go along with the post, but I thought I would make an exception tonight. Part of the reason we have not posted in a while is that Jack broke our digital camera and we had to get a new one. Apparently camera lens should not be closed manually! But we were able to get a new camera and I will hopefully have some pictures to blog soon.

Kayla turned 2 on Saturday which is hard to believe. She is still our child with the most "personality"... as we like to call it. She enjoyed her time with Nana and Umpaw that came in from PA and with my parents as well. And she ripped through all her presents like a pro! She also had her two year check up today and is up to a whopping 27lbs and 35.25". Tall and skinny, I am looking forward to summer when I can put dresses on her and not worry about finding a pair of pants that will stay up on her! She also LOVES to sing! While the average person may not understand the words she is saying, she can belt out the tunes perfectly. Her favorites are "Twinkle, Twinkle", "Blessed Be the Name", and "Praise Him", along with many others.

Jack is now 3 and a half and getting bigger everyday! We are working on potty training, but he much prefers to just keep playing than be bothered. He is very excited about mommy having a baby and has to rub my belly almost everyday. He keeps asking if the baby is big enough to come out yet... He also told me last night that he thought the baby had grown...I think that was his nice of way of telling mommy I had grown!

Funny Story: Today after we got home from running errands all morning Jack was having trouble getting his second shoe off. He looked at Kayla and said, "baby, you do it". And she replied, "otay". So she bent down, took his shoe off for him, and put it away on the rug. Jack then said, "baby, there's the other shoe". (Which he had tossed accross the floor) She said "otay" again and ran over and picked up the other shoe and put it away on the rug as well! If you knew how much "spunk" Kayla can have the story becomes even more funny. I guess we will just have to see if it happens again!
