Thanksgiving weekend

Kellen loves his blankets, he will pull them all around the house all day long.
We drove down to Wichita Thanksgiving morning for lunch at Grandma's house with all our family.

Grandpa Cold Beer wasn't there for Thanksgiving but drove to Kansas on Friday, he stopped by Kansas City before he headed to Wichita. Kellen and I had so much fun with Grandpa Cold Beer!!
Grandpa Cold Beer and a sleepyhead Kellen. Lately he has been really sleeping in, he had just gotten out of bed, you can see his face is still got snot on it!!
We had an amazing Thanksgiving weekend!!

Disney on Ice

Yesterday we went to Disney on Ice, it was AMAZING!!! It was supposed to be a Mom and me day but we ended up having to bring Kellen along too. He had tons of fun so I guess it was OK that he came with us.

Mom didn't realize that she bought rink-side tickets. We were literally in the very first row just a walkway between us and the ice. We were actually sitting on the ice, there was just cardboard between our chairs and the ice.

Mommy, Kellen and I.


I loved the big castle backdrop.

Mommy even bought us some popcorn in the Incredibles box. Kellen and I ate almost the entire box!!





Kellen was so good during the show, he definitely loved watching all the characters skate on the ice.

I met a friend there... Snow White came down by us and watched some of the show with me!!

In the end all the Princesses came out and I thought that was so cool!!





I was really excited when all the characters skated right by me and I finally got to see Daisy!!

Kellen has been obsessed with these beads lately. He wears them all day everyday!!

My first sleep-over

Mommy got out my zebra for Kellen to play with. He fell in love with it as soon as he got on it... he's too cute!!

Man oh man don't I look bored?!!!
As much as I love watching movies I hate the cold weather, I'm really gonna miss seeing my friends everyday and riding my bike on the deck!!
Katie's brother Jake was having a sleepover with lots of 10 year old boys so we invited Katie to come spend the night with us. We were both super excited and couldn't wait for the sleepover to begin! After dinner we got out our sleeping bags and ate our ice cream and watched Tinkerbell.
We also played lots of games... hungry hungry hippos, bingo, dominoes, cootie, and candy land.
We were just "practicing" sleeping. We were really watching a movie, we just wanted to play a joke on Mom and pretend like we were asleep!!
This one isn't pretend... Mom thought we looked so cute sleeping together so she had to take our picture!!
After we watched a couple movies we moved up to my bed. I had a pretty bad cough and Mom didn't want me to sleep on the floor so we put our sleeping bags on the bed and we went right to sleep. We were both really worn out.
Mom made us special pancakes shaped like lots of cool stuff. I had a couple "K" pancakes and also had some "butterflies" "hearts" and "princess tiaras". Mom calls me a pancake eating machine, I can eat so many pancakes!! (Mom does pretty well at pancakes but my Grandma is the Queen of making pancakes, she always makes me the coolest pancakes... thanks Grandma)
Katie and I had so much fun at our sleepover. We can't wait until we can do it again. I hope that next time I can go over to Katie's house!!
Kellen had fun playing with Katie too, he was sad when she had to go home!!

Grandma's Visit, LA + more

When we stopped down the street while on a walk, Kellen got out of the stroller and I jumped right in. So on the way home Kellen got to sit on my lap and I promised to hold on tight!!
Grandma came to visit 2 weekends ago and she bought me this paint set, I had tons of fun painting all afternoon. Mom has lots of my artwork to display now!!

Grandma and Kellen
Kellen had lots of fun making Grandma go get the ball everytime he dropped it off the porch!!
It wouldn't be a complete Grandma trip if we didn't get Cheetos for breakfast, we have the best Grandma ever!!!
Kellen chewing on his blanket again!!
Mom couldn't get this blanket washed for 2 weeks, the first week Kellen took it out of the laundry pile and hid it in the toy room. On the second week Mom was determined to wash it but Kellen kept digging through the basket and taking it out. He didn't want Mom to wash it, but she was determined. She had the washer started and walked into the toy room and saw that he had taken the blanket again and she had to run back into the laundry room and throw it in the washer. He loves blankets!

Kellen loves to play peek-a-boo, except that when he covers his eyes it reminds him he's tired and starts rubbing his eyes and forgets to reveal. That kid is still such a sleeper!!
PEEK-A-BOO!!!
My very first school picture!!!

Mom went to LA last weekend to see her friends Jen and Alex and we stayed with Daddy. She didn't go into Disney Land but she did a little bit of shopping at Downtown Disney and got me this name poster with all the princesses spelling out my name. She got Kellen and I all kinds of cool stuff. We both missed her so much; especially Kellen, he kept going to the garage door and saying "mama mama" hoping that she would come home. I told Mom that she wasn't allowed to fly on an airplane without me again.
Jen and Alex got me this big Tinkerbell sucker. I dropped it so it broke but I still LOVED it. Thanks Jen and Alex!!!
I love my Kellen!!
On a side note for those of you who don't know already Kellen's craniosynostosis surgery is scheduled for January 18th. Mom showed me some pictures of babies that have had the surgery and I said I didn't want Kellen to have a big ouchie like that. But I know that he's tough and he'll be ok. Mom said that I can help her decorate her helmet when he gets it :) Thanks for all the continued prayers for Kellen and our family.

We had so much fun trick or treating. I knew that I wasn't able to eat any candy until we got home so after 3 house I told Mom I wanted to go home, she didn't buy it so we kept going!!




Kellen kept chewing on his hat, Mom didn't mind as long as he kept it on his head!!
Addison and I were both Cinderella, does that surprise anyone?!!!
