This and That

We have been busy trying to get Kylie's room ready. Ladybugs everywhere. My mom ordered all the bedding for us and it came last week. Warren and Cailin put it all on the bed for me to be surprised when I got home. Cailin was so excited, wanting me to "come see".
This is my new favorite picture of Cailin. We went to the park last Sunday with our dogs. Cailin loved running with Warren and the dogs.

I love this pic of her and Warren too! I don't know what kind of tree it was in the background but it was HUGE! It hung down to the ground, so pretty. Warren and I celebrated our 3rd anniversary last week. I'm so glad that I am married to this wonderful man. He's a great husband. He always picks up where I leave off or just does things before I ask. I truly love him for that. He takes such good care of us. So, Happy Anniversary Babe! I LOVE YOU!

Hey, Macarena!

This video is kind of long, but it is so funny! Cailin loves to dance to the Macarena sung by Alvin and the Chipmunks. She usually asks for the Alvin song and then she goes crazy dancing to it! I guess she got all her dance moves from her daddy, cause I know I don't have any! She's such a performer.

This next pic is of how our living room looks on a daily basis now. She'll get one baby doll at a time and cover it up with a blanket. We always run out of blankets, so then she'll use dish towels or wash rags, whatever she can find. She'll ask, "where's this baby's blanket?" Each doll has to have their own blanket, they cannot share. She won't allow it! She gets this idea from her daycare when they take naps, they each have their own cot with a blanket.

I know by watching her play with her baby dolls that Cailin is going to be a great big sister. I think she'll want to do everything for her. I know she'll be a little bossy! She loves to boss us. She told me this morning as I was talking to mom on the phone, "Hush, that's enough!" Guess I was talking too much! Whoops! Then she gives you that sweet little smile, a charmer indeed.

I'm really starting to feel the effects of this little one. My feet are starting to get tired at work and a tiny bit swollen. Hopefully they won't get as bad as they did with Cailin. She's a wiggle worm for sure, she moves constantly. She usually doesn't just kick, she's usually just squirming around in there. Sometimes it gets painful, because I feel her little bones (probably feet or knees) rubbing across my stomach. Ouch! I don't remember Cailin doing that, she usually just kicked. I could go to sleep at 8pm every night, if I could! I'm on the home stretch now and can't wait to meet her!

We picked up her wall border last weekend and will start putting it up. My mom has ordered all of her bedding and most of her room stuff. I can't wait because her room will start to look complete! That's all I have for now! Bye!

Christmas

We had a great Christmas, just a lot of it! We had our own Christmas at home before we left and opened gifts from each other and to Cailin. Then, we had Christmas a few days later with Enie. Then on to my dad's house for another round and then to my mom's for the finale! It was a fun week!

Cailin really loved openening her presents this year. She'd say, "Yay, presents!" and clap her hands. So sweet!


I loved how she smiled when she opened this baby! She loves baby dolls!



This is Christmas morning and what she got from Santa. She loved it.



She got this cute Cabbage Patch from Uncle Dee. She loves her! It reminded me of so many Christmas' when I was little and that would be our Santa gift. A new Cabbage Patch doll.



This is the sweetest picture! She was telling Pe-paw thank you for her sweater that he and Me-maw gave her.

This picture cracks me up! My dad is wrapped around her little fingers! She loves to tell him to do different things and he does them. They usually do this, she makes him jump up and down, spin in circles. It's so funny. She loves whenever she has someone copy her!

Christmas tidbits

Once again, it's been awhile since I blogged. So, I have some new pictures to share of course. This one is of Cailin sitting in front of our church's Christmas tree.
I always love when they put it up, really gets me into the Christmas spirit. This next pic is of Cailin with her church "grandparents". They've adopted her as their own and she loves them! She always runs to them as soon as she sees them. They have become our family here, since we have to be away from our family. They are such a blessing for us.

She loved having her picture taken with them, she kept saying "Cheese". See how she has her arm around Thurman too! She adores him! They are going to babysit her tonight while Warren and I go to his Christmas party for work.

Warren and I took Cailin to the Santa at the mall last week and she was totally scared of him. She didn't even want to stand beside him! So, at Warren's squadron's Christmas party last weekend, she watched as all the other kids went up to Santa to get their present and sit on his lap. She did it too! Yeah!

Here's the picture that Warren got of her sitting on his lap.

Cailin, just came over to see what I was doing and she saw this picture of her and Santa. She said, "Mommy, who's that?" So I said, "It's Cailin and Santa." Then, she said, "Good job." Funny! Well, that's all that I've got for now! Hope everyone has a wonderful weekend! Bye!
