She's 3!

I can't believe it! My Kyla turned 3 this past Thursday! She is getting so big, and has so many big changes this past year. She became a big sister, got her first haircut, and learned how to use the big girl potty! It's amazing how fast the time goes by. But I love her more and more every day.
The morning started out with a bowl of her favorite cereal (Cinnamon Toast Crunch). I wanted to make her eggs and toast, or pancakes even, but no. She wanted cereal. And what the birthday girl wants, she gets!
Then for dinner, we ate the Old Spagetti Factory in Trolley Square. She wore her birthday crown all day, but took it off when we sang happy birthday to her. She got a scoop of Spamoni Ice Cream with a candle in it. When we sang happy birthday to her, there was a table next to us with a bunch of people, and they (along with the other waitstaff) sang with us. It was neat!
Then for the activity that night, we went to the Hollywood Connection down in Sandy, and played a round of Mini Golf. It was Kyla's first time, and she had a blast! She putted the ball into the hole every singe time, and I think managed to get 20 over par on every hole as well.
KD and Kyla wanted to sit on this dinosaur, and I thought it was a perfect picture opportunity. Unfortunately the lighting in the place was not the greatest.
And here's Jason and I with our birthday girl. Oh, how we love her! We cannot count the ways, there are way too many!!




Kamryn's Favorite

One of Kamryn's favorite things to do is "unload". Doesn't matter what it is: toys, laundry, art supplies. If it's in a box, she'll find some way to unload it.
These toys taste pretty good, apparently.
What? No More?
Awww!
All Done! Now I have to put them all back in so she can do it all over again. So Fun!



A Friendly Game

Friday, November 12, 2010

Oh, what to do on a Sunday Afternoon?

How about a friendly game of Crossbows and Catapults? For some reason, KD really wanted to play this after church last week, and Jason was more than happy to oblige.

Kyla love yelling "Fire!", and then shooting a catapult, or one of the crossbows. She really got into it.
KD was the strategist. She took dad's lead and aimed at all of Jason's important spots.

They had such a fun time, as you can see by the video above!



Kamryn's Time Out

Kamryn was being a pill and was following me everywhere I went in the kitchen. I almost tripped over her a couple of times! So, being a little desperate but not wanting to put her in her crib, I thought of this solution:



Apparently it was the right choice. She loved it!


Halloween Cupcakes

A couple of days before halloween the girls and I made cupcakes to deliver to some friends and neighbors of ours. They had a lot of fun, and hey! We all matched!!





We had a lot of fun! Of course, the girls ate so many that the number we were going to deliver kept getting smaller and smaller, but that's ok. It just meant that they were good!
