Day to day....

We have had a great week! It has been nice to get back to normal after the holidays! Carson and Kaylee went back to school after a two week Holiday break. They were both excited to get to go again! Kaylee also started dance class again. We also have been enjoying just hanging out and playing with our new toys and games we got for Christmas. Kaylee has also been such a big girl and is officially wearing big girl underwear 24/7!!!! So, with that, we have eaten a lot of ice cream in celebration. So the other night we made a batch of brownies to go with our ice cream! Kaylee was a big help, and just like me, her favorite part is licking the bowl when we are done! She was so cute, so I had to take some pictures!
While we made brownies, Carson was using his new art projector set. This has been so fun for him! He is able to trace pictures and draw pictures with markers. Both kids have really liked it and it has helped Carson get really good at making straight lines and coloring within the lines.

While Carson is at school, it gives Kaylee and I time to hang out and just be silly! This is Kaylee pretending that she couldn't walk, and was scooting all over the floor. She was being so silly! I love that side of her!! She is always finding ways to make us laugh and has quite an imagination that can keep her and us entertained for a bit!

They are both the biggest helpers too! On Wednesday, we got a few items at the case lot sale and they were both eager to help dad put it all away in the pantry. It also gave us a chance to do a bit of organization to help keep the pantry neat and tidy. You know how it is when you are in a hurry and you just put things away where ever and eventually your pantry/cupboards become so unorganized it is just a mess! So, we spent a few extra minutes making our pantry a bit more tidy and it has been so nice! I just hope we can do a better job keeping it that way!

It seems like my kids are the silliest right before bed, which is better than being mean and ornery!

Kaylee thinks she is a little monkey!!! (Yes, she is even wearing monkey pj's!!!) Again, with being silly. I took these today and Kaylee was trying to pull 'funny' faces for the camera, then she wanted to see them on the camera so she could try and out do her self with the next picture. it was hilarious!!!

It makes me sad that they are getting so big so fast, but I am thoroughly enjoying every moment of this time with them. My favorite thing to do is give them hugs and kisses before bedtime and to tell them how much I love them! Being a parent really is the best and most important thing in life!!! No amount of money or fame could ever compare to the love a family shares!!! I'm so glad that I get to do this forever......
