Saturday is one of the best days of the week. We all get to rest, play and spend time together. Kylie woke up at 6am this morning and asked for donuts. Now I don't feed her donuts all the time but this was a special Saturday. She insisted we get dressed at the same time, we did our hair together and we were out the door by 8am in search of some donuts. We stopped at Dunkin Donuts for Munchkins and then drove to Starbucks for a latte for Mommy!
When we got home, Kylie decided to help me with the yard work and assisted me in cutting, edging and trimming the front yard. Her contribution was running through the sprinkler, which she carefully marked with cones. She also sat in her beach chair and took notes while she watched me sweating! If only I could teach her to make lemonade and bring it out to me that would be great.
The Sprinkler Video!
All the fun this morning she is wiped out and taking a good nap. Next up picking up Grandma from the airport! It will really be a girls night tonight! We miss you Daddy/Brian!
I picked up Kylie extra early tonight and told her we were going to have a Girls Night. I was super excited and all she told me was Juice Please. When we got home we decided again it was a girls night.. Dinner and a movie.
If you have been reading along, you will know what movie she picked. All I have to say is not again! We took out the blender and made some frosty beverages (non-alcoholic of course!) and enjoyed for the trillionth time Toy Story.
Anytime I can spend time cuddling with my two year old is well worth it, even if the movie is the same! Today Kylie is 2 1/2 OH MY!
Everybody Clean Up... Kylie does not like messes AT ALL! In fact this weekend, Kylie and I were shopping at Macy's in the shoe department. Yes I have a shoe problem and so does Kylie. Anyway back to the story....We were looking at the sales rack and the person next to us was looking at shoes dropped them on the floor tried them on and then kicked them under the rack. Kylie screams out OH NO MOMMY SHOES, gets out of her stroller puts her hand on her hip says OH NO again and points to the lady that left them there. She gave us a look and basically ran out. We had to go around the whole shoe department and clean everything up and finally Kylie said, ALL DONE!
So neat freak she is... A couple of days ago we were cleaning up her toy room and she so neatly put her toys into her bins and ready to put away. Except this time the bins were better in the shower and she could close the door behind her and SAY ALL DONE!
Lately Kylie is starting to pick up more and more. She realizes where things are left, where things belong, and definitely what she likes. Toy Story the Disney movie has become her favorite and she often tries to pretend she is Buzz Lightyear saying "To infinity and beyond" with her arms up. Here are a few recent pictures of her endeavors...
"To infinity and beyond"...Baby dressed up in Buzz Lightyear pajamas!
P.S. Grandma, you can see how she put on the "baby baby crocs for her baby"
Peek-A-Boo...at the park in our neighborhood
If the swings aren't there to pretend to fly, the next closest thing is the slides!
Yesterday as we were getting ready to get in the car to go to school we noticed that one of the palm frawns had fallen. Now this is nature the palm frawn dies and it drops, although the palm tree survives. But trying to explain this to Kylie wasn't easy. She kept saying oh no tree broken Daddy! She was trying to lift up the palm frawn and for anyone who has every tried to lift one of these realizes that they are super heavy! She kept telling Brian that it was broken and was trying to jump up and down while lifting the frawn to put it back on the tree. She was super traumatized by the tree loosing a (leaf/palm frawn).
I have to admit it has been awhile since we last posted a blog post. We have been having so much fun! Kylie is at such a fun age where we are constantly at a go and I think some nights she could put us to bed at night.
We have been to the parks, Dr. Seuss reading at Target, Soccer Practice, riding our bikes and so much more. We would love to post all about our latest adventures BUT our home laptop computer has been infected by a computer virus. We are hoping our good friend is able to fix it tomorrow and we will be back up and operational. In the meantime enjoy a few quick pictures of what is going on with us!
We hope to be back and operational soon!
