Kalee and Brylee

Movin' and Grovin!

Brylee is on the move and nothing that I own is safe! While I was really excited at first to see her move from one room to the next, the excitement quickly died when I saw her going for my babies and my train track! She loves to be where ever I am and thinks that it is pretty funny to grab what I am playing with. Not so funny if you ask me! While there have been a few bumps in the road with Brylee's new found freedom, overall I do think that it is pretty cool cause that just means she is one step closer to actually being able to play with me! She mostly does the worm when she moves around but more and more she is crawling on her hands and knees! She is getting way to big to fast, but we are all enjoying every moment!

New Years!

We headed down to Branson to have our Christmas with Grammy, B-pa, Brent, Cortney, Cooper, and Ella. We also stayed and celebrated New Years there too. When we got there on Friday, it didn't take long for all of us to want to start tearing into the mountain of presents that were under the tree! So we all took our turn opening gifts. I finally opened by Baby Alive, something I have been looking at, at the store for a loooong time now! Brylee loved her elephant that blows ball from his trunk. After opening gifts, we all headed outside to enjoy the weather! It was so warm and sunny the whole time! Brylee and I were again spoiled rotten with all of our wonderful gifts...we are lucky to have such great families that love us to much! The rest of the weekend, we all played together outside, went for walks around the golf course, and wreaked havoc on everyone around us! It was another great weekend! Thanks again everyone for making Christmas so special!

Look at all of the presents!

Christmas

We spent this Christmas in Iowa at Grandma and Grandpa Good's house. I was so excited to see that Scout my elf even made it to their house to spend the last few days with me! Christmas Eve, I baked cookies and made sure that I left plenty for Santa to eat. Before bed, we all went outside to feed the reindeer, I knew Rudolf would be hungry too! I was so excited to find that the cookies were gone and so was my reindeer food. Sadly one other thing was gone too...Scout left and went back to the North Pole with Santa...that was a little hard for me to understand, but he left me a note saying that he would be back next year. I sure did love having that little guy around! We opened presents that morning and I finally got a train set! My cousin Cooper has A LOT of trains and I have been wanting one for quite awhile now. I actually didn't get only one set this Christmas, I got 3 different sets and 3 trains! Brylee had a great time playing with the boxes and the wrapping paper. Actually we both had a great time playing with the paper! We had a great Christmas! Thanks for everything Grandma and Grandpa!

Visit with Santa!

Mom and dad keep talking about this Santa guy that is suppose to be coming to my house at night while I am sleeping...they say he leaves presents, but I am not buying it at all! I actually told them that Santa can keep my presents, that I had plenty. But they still wouldn't listen and they insisted that we were going to see him. They did tell me that I did not have to talk to him or even go near him, they wanted Brylee is sit with him for her first Christmas. So we went to see the ole guy. I wanted absolutely NOTHING to do with him at all! I kept my distance and chose to not even look his way. Brylee sat on his lap and had a picture taken with him. As we were getting ready to head home, I took it upon myself to walk up to Santa...I just had to see what all of the fuss was about! He wasn't as bad as I first thought, so i gave him a high five and moved on...I still was not going to sit on his lap. But hey I got close to him this year!

6 months!

We cannot believe that Brylee is already 6 months old! Time is going way to fast and she is growing and changing each and every day! She still continues to be a very sweet and passive little love bug! She isn't quite and cuddly as she use to be now that she is on the move. She is sitting up and pulling herself around like a little worm. There isn't much that she cannot get to! Kalee's toys are no longer safe and she is going to have quite the eye opener soon when Brylee is into ALL of her stuff! We have truly been blessed with two amazing little girls. We love you to pieces little Brylee Bug!

Getting ready for my 1st Christmas!

Our visit with Great Grandpa and GiGi!

We headed to Nebraska this weekend to visit with Great Grandpa and Gigi while they were back in town. This was the first time for them to meet Brylee and it had been quite awhile since they had seen me as well. We had a great time visiting with them and they loved on both of us! They couldn't believe how active I was and how I never stop talking and how Brylee is so quite and passive! We had a great time visiting and we look forward to seeing you again soon!

Great Grandpa and his girls!

Gobble, Gobble!

We had a GREAT time in Branson this Thanksgiving! We all went to Silver Dollar City on Wednesday to see all of the Christmas light and to ride the train and listen to the Christmas story. The weather was pretty good and didn't get to cold until right at the end. There were a lot of people there, but we were still able to see everything we wanted to see and really didn't have to wait in lines for anything. This summer I will be tall enough to go on some of the rides! I cannot wait...at least I think so. We all hung out at the cabin on Thanksgiving just lounging and relaxing. We started the morning with putting up Grammy and B-pa's HUGE Christmas tree! B-pa has always wanted a TALL tree and he finally has a house that can hold one! The tree looked beautiful once finished and put us all in the Christmas spirit. We had a wonderful dinner followed by some Bocce Ball. The weather couldn't have been more perfect for playing outside and running around on the golf course. Friday and Saturday we all just hung out as well. It was a very easy going weekend, but I think everyone had a great time and enjoyed just being around the family for the start of the holiday season. I cannot wait to head back down to the cabin for New Years!

Looking at all of the lights!
