Kaylie's first friends birthday party

Last Friday, Kaylie had her first official friend's birthday party! She had 6 little girls over and they seemed to have a great time! I forget what a bunch of little girls together is like! They were definetely busy! Kaylie really enjoyed herself and had a great time having her friends from Kindergarten over. We were super busy and the night went fast! We made trick or treat bags for their candy on Halloween, made princess crowns, had dinner, and played a few games. Here are a few pictures from the party.

Birthdays!

We spent a lot of this week celebrating birthdays. We had a fun time celebrating Kaylie's 6th birthday!

Kaylie turning the big 6! It makes me sad that she is that old already!

We want curls!

Both the girls decided they wanted to go to school with curly hair so they asked me to put socks in their hair. It's an easy and comfortable way for them to sleep and have curls in their hair when they wake up. I wish I took an after picture- WOW does their hair get curly!

Tooth #2 Gone!

Kaylie has now lost 2 teeth! She lost her 2nd bottom tooth yesterday. IT's crazy how fast this tooth losing thing is going! Now we have her front two teeth that are loose. Hopefully it will be a while before she loses those, otherwise eating might be a little more difficult!

First Lost Tooth!!

Last Tuesday, Kaylie lost her first tooth! She was very excited. She has been working on this tooth for awhile. She stayed home from school with Papa Ronnie last week and had a big surprise for us when we picked her up, she was missing her bottom tooth. She said she was eating a chip while it happened. Now her other bottom tooth is loose, as well as her top two teeth. I told her she is going to be singing, "All I want for Christmas is my two front teeth." She was very excited when the tooth fairy let her keep her tooth and brought her money. She woke me up at 1:00 a.m. and had to show me what she got. The tooth fairy also brought her a tooth necklace which she wore around proudly that day. It makes me a little sad that she is losing her little baby teeth. She's growing up way too fast!

New Baby On The Way!!

O.K., this post is way overdue, as many people have told me but yes, we are excited to say that baby number 3 is on its way, due to arrive around March 18th! We are all very excited, especially our girls. They can't wait!! They are constantly hugging, kissing, and talking to my belly. It will be fun to see them interact with a new baby. I'm feeling very big already and at my 13 week appointment was measuring around 17. It is amazing how fast your belly grows the third time around! I don't fit into my clothes and am at the awkward stage where maternity clothes are too big and my clothes are way to tight!! Thank goodness my sister let me borrow her bella band!! :)
I am now 15 weeks and counting, however, this will be my last pregnancy so I am trying to enjoy each and every moment. And yes, we will find out the sex of our baby. We already have another ultrasound scheduled for December. We will see, boy or girl!!??!! We know what our family is good at producing!

Also congratulations to our friends Bobbi and Chris who just had baby Brooks!! He is adorable and are very excited and happy for you guys!



Here is our 9 week ultrasound picture. Kind of a bad picture but really as Maddie said "mom, it looks like a jelly bean."

First Day of Sunday School

Sunday was Madelyn's first day of Sunday School. She was so excited to go and couldn't wait to meet her teacher and see her classroom. In her mind she was going to 4K, where Kaylie went because it was at our church, so she was a little confused but needless to say, she had so much fun. We have not stopped hearing about her teacher, her classroom, and the girl in the flower shirt that kept crying for her mommy.
(Kaylie also had Sunday school that day but she was too cool to get her picture taken)
