Two Year Old Talk

• I was giving Kylie a bath on Sunday before church. I had been sitting next to her the whole time on the closed lid of the toilet. She was almost done so I stepped across the hall to look in her closet and pick out something for her to wear. As I left the bathroom, she yelled out, "Mommy, you can't leave me alone in the tub!"

• Kylie and I were having lunch, I turned to check on her and caught her letting Chevy (our dog) lick her fork. I told her not to let the dog lick her fork and turned back to my food. A few seconds later Kylie asked me, "mommy, do you have a tongue?" I laughed...I told her yes and stuck it out to show her. Her eyes were wide with amazement and she said, "you have a tongue too!"

• I was getting Kylie out of the bath and she said, "I pooped in the bath." While checking for the "poop" in the bath, I hear Kylie fart. "Oh, you farted in the bath. You are a little farter like daddy" I said. "No, daddy is a BIG farter" Kylie said.

It's a...

Our baby is a girl! Now we can say "she" and "her" instead of "it." The doctor said she was the cutest baby he had seen all day. She was moving around like crazy. She weighs 9 ounces and measures just right for her April 19th due date. We could see her open and close her mouth and move her tongue. She did look very cute!

Kylie ready to Trick-or-Treat! I only took her to 5 houses. Her idea of Trick-or-Treating was to go inside the houses.




Kylie watched while Matt carved the pumpkin. Kylie said it was, "yucky inside."

Halloween Party!!

We had a great turnout this year! Sarah Palin was kind enough to take a night off from campaigning to make an appearance. Also in attendance was gold medalist Michael Phelps. Prisoner Warren Jeffs must have escaped, he was here with the prettiest one of his many, many wives. Cinderella's Fairy Godmother and a coachman came to the party, then they whisked Cinderella away before bedtime. Two unclaimed packages were delivered to the party by UPS, they were labeled, "Halloween Party", so the Bunch of Grapes suggested we, "handle them with care". Matt and I had a great time, we hope everyone else did too!

Ultrasound Pictures!

We saw our perinatologist on Wednesday and he took these photos of the babe. Pretty cute, right? Actually, I think the poor thing looks like it has huge feet. The baby is 12 weeks and 3 days in the pictures, the doctor said it is too soon to tell if it is a boy or girl. We find that out in 5 weeks!

A Special Message From Kylie!

100% Princess

Kylie loves to dance, twirl, and sing. She is always dressing up in her pink skirt. One night, we put her to bed in pajamas and when we checked on her a few hours later...she had gotten out of bed, taken off her pajamas, put on her skirt, crawled back in bed, and covered herself up. We pulled off the covers and found her in nothing but a tu-tu!

How Does Your Garden Grow?

I planted a small garden in the backyard. I just love to check on it in the morning and see what has changed. It is very exciting to plant things and watch them grow! We have already harvested about 6 tomatoes. I am proud to say they are DELICIOUS! We have also used the fresh basil on homemade pizza. Also DELICIOUS!
