Pictures of a FUN day!

Swinging

Our precious family!

My little monkey girl!

We had a blast today! We played at the park, played at grandmas and wrote with sidewalk chalk.

I LOVE SPRING/SUMMER!!!!

Some much needed time off.

Saying cheese!

Going down the slide all by herself!

Trying to open the bathroom door!

The most beautiful eyes in the world!

Going down the big slide!

We have had Sunday and Monday off together as a family! It has been so nice to spend some time together. I love my family and sometimes I wonder how I got so lucky, because I am surrounded by such wonderful people. I guess I have to work extra hard to attempt to be like them. What a great example they are to me!

Kaidance is getting so big. We have been trying to get outside as much as possible, but the rain is not being nice to us. I can't wait for a warm day! (and I know Kaidance feels the same!)

Lately, little Rooie girl loves to throw the ball to the dogs. It is fun to see them run after it, and she just giggles.

Also, Ashlee and I had a little situation the other night. We got Kaidance out of the tub, and then locked the bathroom door upstairs. We had Kaidance out of the bathroom, but we locked ourselves out. I am totally OCD and the bathroom wasn't cleaned up from her bath. So we spend about an hour and a half attempting to get into the bathroom. Lucky for us, we found a key and got in. Just so you know, Kaidance was watching the whole time, and the picture was the next day. She kept trying to open the doors with the end of a hanger! HAHA! Funny how much she understands!

She loves the SWING!

Eating Ice Cream, she stopped to say "Cheese"

Climbing up the slide!

Posing!

Giving cousing Shakobe a "LOVE"

Swing time!

Reading books with cousin Ky!

Pretending to sleep in the Swing, she kept saying "ni-ni"

Swinging!

Kaidance loves to be outside. It does not matter how cold or hot it is outside, she just wants to be out there! It is fun to see how she is growing and learning. She knows if she puts her shoes and jacket on that she gets to go outside, thus she gets her shoes out and tries to put them on herself.

The last two days she has been using the potty more. She even pooped in the potty for her first time yesterday, and then again today. When she finishes she yells "YAY" and claps her hands. It is the sweetest thing in the world!

Kaidance turns 18 months

My little hanging monkey!

Jumping.

Going down the big slides all by herself.

Kaidance turned 18 months old on May 2nd. I am still in shock at how old my baby is getting. She is so funny! She speaks a lot now, sometimes you can understand and sometimes you can't! Her favorite game is Ring-Around-The Rosies. She loves to play and attempts to get everyone in on the fun. She also started jumping off things. She will say, "Ready, Set Go!" and then jump. It is fun, but scary because she has no fear and will jump off anything.

We took her to see Dr Visick for her 18 month check up. He thinks she looks great! She is just a silly little girl. She was very good. The only problem is the shots she has to get. She is now getting old enough to realize what is going on. She held her breath so long her lips turned purple. It was not the highlight of the day. After shots Eric promised she could go pick out a toy. (HAHA). A toy turned into multiple toys with multiple dollar signs! :). But she had a good time and it was nice to get her mind off the shots.

This last week we turned her car seat around to face forward. I was a little hesitant,but I think she is doing okay facing forward. She loves to watch Dora in the car and is much more pleasant now that she can face forward and see what is going on. She just looks so big facing forward, I can't even believe how big she is getting. She sure isn't my baby anymore, she is my little princess.

Pictures and Happy Birthday Grandpa!

My angel's first sunburn!

Happy Mother's Day, 2011

Climbing on the furniture is her favorite past time!

Happy Birthday Grandpa! (Ridiing the saddle at Texas Roadhouse!)

Kaidance is so funny! She keeps talking and talking. Her vocabulary is increasing and I love it! I always giggle when she talks.

Last week she got her first sunburn. It was sad, but it didn't even seem to bother her. She is such a little sweetheart. She loves to be outside. Lately she will get so upset if we attempt to take her in from playing outside.

Kaidance did the funniest thing the other day. Eric and I were dancing on the Wii and we looked over at her. She was climbing on the couch and then jumping off the cough onto the bean-bag. We laughed so hard at her and she thought it was the best time ever!

Last but not least, it was my grandpa Rigby's birthday yesterday! Happy Birthday Grandpa! We love him so much! He is just the nicest guy! He is always willing to help anyone! Kaidance loves him, and he is so good with her! I have to say, he looks MUCH younger than he is! Who else has a grandpa that is 71 and still hunts, hikes, works, does yard work, rides horses and so much more??? We love you Grandpa, Happy Birthday!

Just another day at the Park.

Nothing really new here! Just wishing we would have a few NICE days of sunshine! We went to the park the last few days! Kaidance is always so sad to leave!

The pictures tell you how much fun she has!
