Maybe I can finally blog again...

I just discovered the Blogger app so I'm hoping maybe I can actually keep up with my blog better now. I haven't posted in so long because we don't have a computer at home anymore.

Today is Kinley's 3rd birthday! I'll try to post later. We've been busy all day and I have tons of pictures to share!

My Funny Girl

Bryan met up with some of his college buddies tonight so it was just me and Kinley.  We went to dinner at Chick-fil-a, which we both love!!! Then we did a little shopping at Target. Of course, she had to have some popcorn to eat while we shopped (she loves popcorn!). On our way home, she says, "Santa bring cupcakes." So I asked her if she wanted Santa to bring her cupcakes for Christmas and she said, "Yeah." I then asked her what else she wanted Santa to bring her for Christmas and she said, "Car." I asked her if she wanted a little car that you drive around the living room, and she said, "yeah." Bryan showed her a remote control car the other day and I guess she wants one of her own now.  I thought it was just so precious and sweet how she asked for Santa to bring her cupcakes. 

I love how much she is talking now.  You can really have a conversation with her and it is so much fun!

While we were at Target, we found a little craft project that came with a pink and purple foam Christmas tree and a bunch of foam stickers to decorate it with.  So we did that when we got home! She loved it and was so proud to show her daddy when she was done! I'll post some pictures of it soon...

I have been slacking on my posts here lately, but I plan to do some updates soon. 

We had a good Thanksgiving and we are looking forward to lots of Christmas fun!

Little Miss Model

They did pictures at daycare a couple weeks ago and I really wasn't expecting Kinley to cooperate.  I was so surprised when they showed them to me!  They changed her outfit into two things other than what I sent her in and I think she is just so adorable (but I am her mother).  I just had to show everyone because I think Kinley did great! 
We had her 2-year pictures and some family pictures taken this past Saturday morning and I am really excited to see how they turned out.  I used a girl that a friend of mine recommended and I really liked her!  Thanks, Jill B., for doing our pictures Saturday.  And thanks, Jill S., for telling me about her!

I have to share a funny story...

Tonight I moved the seat part of Kinley's pink princess potty and snapped into the real toilet seat.  She was very excited to get up there and potty from the "big potty".  She sat there for just a second and then looked up at me and Bryan and said, "I'm a big boy!!!"  Oh my gosh, we could not stop laughing.  We tried to explain to her that she was a girl and so was mommy.  But after every attempt to explain it to her, she happily shouted, "I'm a big boy!!!"  So we were quite entertained by that tonight. 

We have Kinley's 2-year pictures and our Family pictures scheduled for this Saturday morning outside.  I am hoping and praying that the chances of rain will hold off.  We really just need a good hour. We will be getting a disc with the pictures from our session on Saturday a week or two later. So as soon as I get that, I will put some pictures up here.

And at some point I am going to figure out how to get Kinley's pictures from daycare on here.  They were adorable! I sent her in a leapord print top with hot pink tights.  But she also had pictures taken in a blue and white cheerleader outfit and a tie-dye shirt with yellow beaded necklace and a big, multi-colored tulle bow (she looks like a litte 80's girl and I love them!)

I've missed the blogging world...I wish I had time to do it every day...but I have to get some sleep now...see you next time.

Pumpkin Patch 2010

Last Sunday, we met my parents and my brother for lunch after church.  Then we all went to the pumpkin patch.  It was fun to go with everyone together.  Kinley was tired and not feeling great so she was a little fussy, but I think she had fun.  I discovered Motley's Pumpkin Patch last year on a website and this was our 2nd year to go there.  Its a great one, I think.  If you're looking for a huge field of pumpkins, then this one isn't for you.  They transport their pumpkins from where they grow them to another location closer to everything else.  But they have a sweet little petting zoo, a cow train ride for the kids, and pig races.  There's a beautiful log cabin with a gift shop and concession stand.  It really is a nice place for kids and to take pictures.


I love when I catch one of Kinley's funny faces with my camera

Watching the pigs...she loved the pigs

We had a really good time and I was so thankful to have nice weather.  It could have been cooler, but I would rather it be warm and sunny, than cold and rainy.  Thanks, Mom and Dad, for taking us all to the pumpkin patch.
