Halloween Carnival

My mom's church had a Halloween Carnival last Tuesday. My mom asked if I wanted to bring Kaidance and we were so excited. I had ordered her costume the first week in October, so I was sure it was going to be here. (I even called the place three times!) The funny story is that it didn't come, though they guaranteed me on the phone it would be here that day. Thus, I didn't go buy a cheap costume. I contemplated taking her, because I didn't have a costume, but she said she wanted to go.

I ran up to her room, looked around and made her into a ballet princess. Silly stuff I had in her room! I guess that had to work.

Little side note, I ended up getting her costume the next day!

The Carnival was great. Kaidance ran around jumping and squealing. She thought is was the best thing ever. She ate cookies, threw rings, did a cake walk, colored, got her face painted and used stickers.

What a blast! Kylie and Shakobe came too! I know my mom was so excited to have all three grand kids there!

Thanks mom for the invite! You made My angel's day!

Carving Pumpkins, or should we say Eating pumpkins?

Daddy, Kaidance and Mommy Pumpkins!

Mom and Kaidance pumpkin!

We carved pumpkins on Sunday night. It was so much fun. Eric's sister and her family came over along with Ashlee and Ruth. It was so much fun. Marcy and her girls made dessert and it was amazing.

Kaidance LOVES pumpkins! She likes to look at them everywhere. She gets a little nervous if they have a mean face and will sometimes say they are scary! It is really cute! Last year, she ate a lot of the raw pumpkin, gross huh? Well this year it was no different. She carried pieces of pumpkin around with her eating them! What a silly girl!

Hope everyone is getting ready for the big Trick-or-Treat!

Binki is "Broken"

Our Sleeping Beauty! Taking up the whole bed! (and the blankets!)

It has officially been 1 week since I took Kaidance's Binki away. I cut them and told her they were broken. She has done so well with it, I can't believe I was dreading it so much. She takes a little longer to take her naps and go to sleep at night, but she has been so amazing through it. About once a day she will ask for Binki! It is cute, I tell her they are broken and see will say, " I see it?" She makes me laugh.

The first night I walked around rocking her to sleep and it was a blessing. I miss my baby and that was really what I needed. She made me realize I need to slow down and enjoy her more. At night we tickle her back, face or belly until she falls asleep.

Yesterday she was playing and she had a conversation with herself. It went something like this:

"A Binki?" "No, it broken." "Mom Broke it." "I see it?" "Mom says I big." "K"

It was the cutest thing! I just watched and listened in amazement. I can't believe she said all of that! She is getting to be so big!

It is her Birthday on the 2nd. Can't wait for the party! We are doing a lavender cupcake theme! It is going to be a blast!

Pumpkin Walk 2011

We went to the Pumpkin Walk last night! It was so much fun! Kaidance loved it! Her favorite was Tangled! She cried and was so upset when we had to leave that display! What a fun night! The long line was worth it!

Oh, and in case you are wondering about the pictures of me, yes I did get braces. I am officially brace face! I had braces placed on my teeth on Wednesday! I get to love them for a year and a half! Hope I get used to them!

Tangled!

Here she is watching Tangled at Grandma's and reading a book! This is her routine when she is at Grandma and Grandpas!

Kaidance has a new favorite show! She LOVES Tangled. She sometimes will call it Tangled and other times she calls it Punzel! It is so cute! She wants to watch it everywhere we go. We officially watch Tangled at least three times a day! (At least it is a cute show, right?)

Play time at Grandma's!

The finished product! Kambrie's Princess Birthday Party!

Kristin told her to eat her cake like this!

HAHA!

Blowing dandy lions with Kylie at grandmas!

Carefully decorating her cookie!

Looking for Raspberries!

Grandma let Kaidance and Kylie make sugar cookies at her house the other day! They both had a blast and it was so much fun to see! Kaidance liked to eat the dough and to put her fingers in each cookie she cut out! Grandma even let them dump in ingredients and use the beaters! WHAT AN AMAZING GRANDMA! Love you grandma!

Gymnastics is the best!

Jump

She is saying "Cheese"

Running!

Hanging Around!

Kaidance goes to Gymnastics every Friday! It is a blast! I have the best time watching her!

If anyone is wondering, I am the crazy mom that follows her around and makes sure she is okay! :). I am sure I am so embarrassing to her!

I Want to be BIG like DADDY!

"Let me have some of what you are having daddy!" (Though it is the same thing)

Don't judge us for eating on our couch!;)

Dad is so proud, he picked this outfit out all by himself, shoes and all! (GOOD JOB DAD)

Kaidance wants to do everything by herself. She does not want you to help her! She is such a doll with an ATTITUDE!

Kristin and Kaidance Time!

Ash and Roo, Watching Lion King!

Big J's with Aunt Kristin!

Boo!

Her favorite, she is saying "Cheese"

Grabbing Uncle Jess to make sure he is going to watch "TIGGGGERS"

Kristin watched Angel Girl on Tuesday for me! They had a blast together! Kaidance can't say Kristin so she calls her "Kris". It is so cute!

Thanks Kristin for taking such good care of my Princess Khloe.

(When I got home from work today, Kaidance called Kristin Mom) Sad day!

My mom and sisters have been so great lately at motivating me to work out. We work out together and I love it. Kaidance LOVES it too. She dances around, then sits and read and dances again.

After workout time, she had to snuggle with Aunt Ash in bed. They watched Lion King. At our house we watch that show at least 3 times a day. It is Kaidance's very favorite right now. She calls it "TIGGGER". (in a deep and raspy voice). It is the cutest thing in the world. No matter how many times I call it Lion, she continues to call it Tiger! Isn't she the best?;)

Our Gymnast!

Kaidance started gymnastics last Friday! She LOVED it! She had so much fun! I ordered her some gymnastics outfits so she fits the part! She looked so beautiful! Kristin and I couldn't help but put every outfit on her and then admire how cute she looked!

Check it out! Toddler and Parent Class at High Point Gymnastics is every Friday! (Best time ever!)

Silly Girl

As you can see, she is jumping here!

"Come find me"

Kaidance is so funny! She comes up with the funniest things and she just laughs at herself. I love that she has such an attitude! She is my spunky girl! Here in the pictures she pulled her pajama shirt up over her head and was just peaking out through the hole. She thought she was funny and we were laughing at her, so she thought it was the best trick ever!

In case anyone doesn't know, we call her Rooie or Roo. This is because she jumps all the time. She has done this since she was just a little baby. She has had the nick-name since she was about 3 or 4 months old.

Her nick-name was shining at gymnastics on Friday. She started Gymnastics this week at Highpoint Gymnastics. She was so upset at first when she saw the children because she thought we were going to leave her.(like daycare) After she realized we weren't leaving her, she had a blast. She keeps telling us she wants to go back. I just love my little gymnast. She the youngest in her class but she can do all the jumps and stuff just as well if not better than the other kids! She is too funny! Wish I had pictures of gymnastics, I will take some this week!

Kaidance has a NEW friend!

Kaidance wanted to take a picture of herself!

Meet CLEO and her cat Clyde!

Checking her out!

Hug time!

Hey, I am not the only witch in this house!!

HAHA! Kaidance has a new friend. She pulls her around the entire house. She feeds her whatever she eats and whatever she drinks. She also feeds the witches cat. She is so hilarious! She is so active right now and she is talking all the time!

Ask her about her friends and she will tell you, "I don't like" or "Don't want". She thinks that friends means she has to go to daycare. She is sure having a difficult time adjusting to the whole daycare thing. The teachers at the daycare have been GREAT with her, though!
