Christmas 2009

Okay so unless you are really bored you probably just want to skip over this post! I took a ton of pics at Christmas (like most people do!) and I want JT to get to see most of them since he wasn't here for the holiday. So here we go!

Before Christmas:

Gingerbread house

Kenz with fake smile

Kenz fake angry

I made this apron for my SIL for Christmas and sent it to her

Kenz and I decorated ornaments for the tree.. the stalking she said was for Daddy!

My sister sent me a beautiful scarf for Christmas! I LOVE it!!

The cookies that Kenz and I decorated

Christmas Eve:

Jalie with Uncle Jon (the girls are wearing shirts that Aunt Kandis made them for Christmas!)

Nanny and Papa's tree

Kenz playing with Oma

Can you tell she's ready to open presents??

They both got phones from Aunt Sandy.. . Kenz got a Dora cell phone

And Jalie got a Fisher Price phone

Ha ha gotta have another Frog!!

Jalie with my cousins Taylor and Andy

TinkerBell Pajamas!!

Jalie... what a CHUB!!Jalie got Dora sippy cups which were quickly confiscated by Kenzie!

Jalie got a car toy from Nanny and Papa

The box is always a hit!!

Kenz was sooo excited when she got her Barbie princess costume!

Jalie in her ballerina pajamas

I LOVE this picture!! Totally my favorite!!

After all the presents were opened it was time to hang with Taylor playing DS

Bro Kyler

Kenzie sitting with Poppi

Christmas Morning:

More presents??

Jalie LOVES her blankie!!

The chair I re-covered for Jalie

The girls with their new chairs!

Ha ha she got her pants wet... I think the diaper with the tutu is priceless!!

All our Christmas loot! Filled up the huge box that had the chair in it!

Kenz loves her "baby horsey"

Jalie with her second cousin?? or third cousin?? Not sure but they are only 1 month apart... so cute!!
K all the videos... probably out of order but here they are!!

Oh Kenz...

She won't keep her clothes on. She is constantly in a diaper. When I told her to go get some clothes on this is what happened! I love this girl!

BUSY!!

K so I totally thought that with JT gone I would have lots of time to Blog and let everyone (including him) know how things were going! HA HA HA Yeah I'll go ahead and laugh at myself because I'm so busy I just can't seem to find the time these days! My list of things to do is about 10 miles too long and I just do the best I can and try to find time to have fun along the way!
My friends have been WONDERFUL!! I have had tons of invitations to hang out and have had lots of friends come over just to visit!! It is exactly what the doctor ordered!! I'm so lucky to have my friends and my family! Such a huge help to me! My Dad has turned out to be a great babysitter and always willing to help out. My Mom and I went to the So You Think You Can Dance performance for our birthday in November and had a blast!! I had sooo much fun having a night on the town!
The girls are growing up so fast... Kenz is getting better and better with using sentences instead of phrases and has mastered the art of talking back! With Daddy gone she definatley knows how to test my limits but she is sooo much fun to play with and incredibly smart! Jalie is practically running now! It is so cute because she went from baby to toddler overnight!! She has two little teeth and LOVES LOVES LOVES to eat!! She will eat anything and screams until you feed her!! Funny girl!! She is getting into everything and is determined to pull my curtains off the wall!!

Kenzie is going to be a hairdresser like her mommy... here she did her own hair with my headband...Here she did Jalie's hair with mommy's lotion... (Jalie didn't mind one bit but mommy did!)
and just days later she did Jalie's hair with toothpaste!! I guess its time to put my scissors in a locked cupboard!! I'm afraid of what will happen next!
Little dare devil!! I was organizing our closet and came out to find this!! Glad she didn't fall but had to get a quick pic!!
Jalie is an even bigger dare devil than her big sis! She climbs on everything! And don't you love the upside-down binky?? she won't leave it right-side up anymore!

I don't have ANY clue how she did this one!! ha ha
It's amazing how one chocolate cookie can give 15 minutes of quiet... which seems worth it at the time... but then you have to start a bath. Was it really worth it?? YES!!
