Christmas 2009

We had such a fantastic Christmas! The only thing we would've changed is that we wish we would have flown out to see our family. But it was fun to try our own Christmas, just the three of us (afterall it was the last Christmas just the three of us :). Mike and I were so excited when we put Ky to bed on Christmas eve and got to be Santa's helpers. It's weird to think we are the parents now and we get to sneak around helping Santa! We were all totally spoiled this year too, especially Miss Ky!

Some of the aftermath. I wish I would've gotten some before and during pics but we were too excited about videotaping and we completely neglected the camera...

Tickling her new baby doll. Kylie loves to tickle everyone and anything!

O Christmas Tree, O Christmas Tree..

A surprise gift I made for Mike. He loved it!

Loving her new toys on Christmas night.

A couple days after Christmas we were playing with Kylie's toys in the living room. She decided she wanted to get in the storage ottoman that we keep her stuffed animals in. She just played in there for a good half hour and loved every minute of it.

She loves her butterfly rocker!

Grandma just found out!

Here is the best video in the world of my mom finding out that Kylie is going to be a big sister. The picture that we surprised her with is the one of Kylie in her "Cutest Big Sister Ever" shirt. Her reaction is priceless! I think she was a little excited....

Baby, It's Cold Outside...

I will be the first person to admit it... I am not a winter person! Not in the least! I was born and raised a California girl. I saw snow maybe 10 times in my entire life up until I moved out to New Hampshire and then Idaho and my idea of a winter low was somewhere in the low 40s... burrrrrrrr! Don't get me wrong, I absolutely love to watch snow gracefully falling to the ground and sitting by the fire wrapped up in a Snuggie while sipping hot chocolate and listening to Christmas music but that is all done inside where it is nice and warm. For the last week or so it has been stinking cold here in Arkansas. We haven't had snow and it hasn't gotten down below 28 degrees but still, it is way to cold for me. So Kylie and I have been just hanging out inside where its toasty, only opening the door for the UPS man delivering Christmas presents. This awful truth about my lack of cold-tolerance makes me question why I am so excited to move back to Utah, the snow capital of the country!

Enough of my rambling, here is a picture of my Ky. Isn't she just gorgeous?!?! I love her new little smirks that she gives me in pictures~

Brusha Brusha Brusha

Kylie's favorite part of bedtime is brushing her teeth. She points to her teeth, goes running for the bathroom and insists "up, up, up" as soon as we utter the those 8 simple words, "Are you ready to go brush your teeth?"
