Pictures Pictures Pictures

We took Kylie to get her 2 year old pictures taken today (although 6 days early). What a difference a year makes. Last year she just sat there and smiled and giggled. This year it was like wrestling a alligator to get her to pose for the shots. Here are a couple of our favorites (out of 130 pictures they took!)

Future Flower Girl

Kylie is honored that she was asked by her Godfather Hugo and Fiance Jess to be a Flower Girl in their wedding. She just loves flowers! Let's hope she enjoys walking down the isle just as much. We have until January to practice...

Today Jess, Kylie and I set out to find the right dress for Kylie. Kylie was absolutely on her best behavior and tried on about 8 dresses. Each one cuter than the next. We had to call in backup with Nancy (the mother of the bride) and we all agreed on one dress!

Staring at herself in the mirror

Hmm.. Maybe she likes this one!

Happy Grandparents Day!

Kylie wanted to wish her Grandpa, Grandma, Gung Gung and Po Po a very Happy Grandparents Day! Thanks for being such a big part of her life.

She decided to be creative today by looking out at the lake and being inspired to paint a beautiful painting. She calls it LOVE and Red. She is already more creative than I am!

Haircut Time

As I am sure you have noticed Kylie has wild hair, a lot like my wavy and crazy! We have been trying to let it grow out into a bob or something but for some reason her sides and front don't want to grow. Today we thought it would be a good time while Daddy was getting his haircut to get a trim. Kylie sat super still and loved the fact they used a roll brush and blow dryer to finish off her new style!

The Baby Ducks All Grown Up

Just like Kylie who is growing and growing more each day,the baby ducks that Kylie loves to feed are growing too. (I am glad I don't have to explain why there was so many and now only a few!)

My favorite part of the day is seeing the joy on her face when the ducks fly, swim or walk over to see her as she feeds them. Important to note ducks like frosted mini-wheats!

Before

Now

In Just Over Two Weeks Kylie will be Two.

Hello, I have gotten a ton of emails from all asking about Kylie's second birthday wish lists. Kylie honestly doesn't need anything and finds playing with common household items to be fun in itself. She loves to play dress up with bracelets and necklaces etc and loves to color and be crafty. However, we created a wish list in Amazon that can be accessed at http://www.amazon.com/gp/registry/wishlist/1T1UCS9BSE7V1/ref=cm_sw_su_w

Your love and well wishes are gifts enough for our little almost 2 year old!

Labor Day Weekend = NO LABOR

Kylie, Brian and I headed north for Labor Day weekend to spend sometime at my parents house. Any excuse to go to Atlanta I will take! I don't think we sat still all weekend as with Kylie you have to keep going going going. We had a blast from going to the lake to the pool to spending time together. We shared a lot of laughs and crying (from laughing so hard). The weekend was a lot of fun and Kylie enjoyed being on a airplane. She insisted on saying goodbye to everyone and everything from the flight attendant to the airplane itself!

A Day at Lake Lanier
It was 59 Degrees when we hit the lake.. a little cold for us!

Take 27!

Grandpa was tired from all the driving and used the raft to shade him from the sun (Now 87 degrees!)
