Snow, Part Two

I can't remember the last time that it snowed twice in one year, that's how much it happens. But it snowed again on Sunday, February 3. We let the kids play outside Monday afternoon when Brandon got home from school and they had a blast. Kendal made a small snowman which we decided looks more like a bird than a man. Brandon just had fun throwing snowballs at everyone, myself included. I was glad they got to see what snow is kind of like. We don't have big snowstorms, but this will do.

Happy Valentines Day Aunt Moo!!

Kendal made a Valentines card today for Aunt Moo. She did it all by herself. So Happy Valentines Day Aunt Moo! We love you and miss you lots!

Oh yeah, she had to wear her swimsuit while she made it. I think it helps with the design process.

Funny Things Kids Say

Brandon and Kendal were racing from the van to the front door and when they got there this is how their conversation went:

Brandon: I'm the first on there, I'm the winner!!

Kendal: ...and I'm the rotten egg!!

She seemed so excited and thrilled that she got to be the rotten egg. That's a first.

Brandon Has a Kid In His Bed

Last night was a rough night again. A little while after Kendal fell asleep, she came and climbed into my bed. I took her back into her bed and it was back and forth for awhile. Finally about midnight, Derek went in and laid with her for an hour. She fell asleep and then a little while after he left she came back into my bed. So, I took her back into her room and laid her with Brandon in his bed (they share a room). I only heard from her one more time after that and that was only to get her a drink of water. I'm at a loss as to what to do. The monster spray didn't work. After I sprayed, I told her there weren't anymore monsters and she said, "yes there is, they just came back." I told her that once you spray they don't come back and she said, "yes they do." That went well...

I Have a Kid Sleeping In My Bed

The last few nights have been pretty rough. On Monday night, we watched an episode of Goosebumps. For those of you who don't know, these are the shows based on the books by RL Stine. They aren't really scary, but sometimes they scare Kendal. This particular one about the slime monster scared her. Monday night she crawled into bed with us. I took her back to her bed 5 times, that I can remember. Then last night, she again crawled into bed. This time I was too tired from the night before to take her back to her bed. I should have though because I still didn't get any sleep with her kicking me in the back. :) Tonight we'll have to make some monster spray to spray around her room to get rid of the monsters. Hopefully that will work.

Kendal

It's amazing to me how big my baby is. She will be four in June. Every night I try to rock her and I ask her if she'll stay small and be my baby. She says, "No." When I ask her why, she says, "because I am a big girl."
She just started ballet a few weeks ago and it amazes me that she's even that big to take ballet.






I can't wait to see how my baby grows up, I love her so much!
