Snow Days

 It ended up being that Kylie had some sort of stomach virus that started on Valentine's Day and lasted for about 5 days...no fun for anyone, and then Matt and I got a touch of it too, but luckily not as bad as the kiddo.


So what happens when she is well and ready to return to school....a snow storm, and no school, and then another snow storm and no school again. 


We were all getting some cabin fever, first locked up for sickness, and then because of all the snow.  I think we got about 10 inches (give or take) each snow storm, so it has definitely been piling up outside. 


The best thing was to get out there and play in it and enjoy it, and then come in for some hot chocolate and nice nap for everyone :) 


Here are some pics I captured of our snow monkey!



 

 
 

I love that little smile, too bad it is because she was ready to chuck that snow at me!
 
 




Nothing like our girl making a snow angel....love it!
 
 



Another smile, with a larger snowball to throw at me while I took her pic...lol
 
 
 
 
 
 
We all worked to make a giant snowman, and if the snowman's nose goes missing, you might want to ask the little lady below....chomping on a carrot.
 
 




Hooray, our giant snowman...snowwoman? 
 
 


Looks like I put these pics in here in the wrong order....the pics all above are from the 2nd snow storm and the last couple are from the first one...oh well, snow is snow, right :)



This one looks kinda funny, Matt is trying to hollow out the igloo he made for Kylie, but it looks more like he got buried in the snow...lol

 



Here is our little snow monkey crawling inside her igloo!
 

 
 
 
Hope you enjoyed our snow pics.  I know, I still need to post about Christmas..I will get there one day :)

Happy Valentine's Day!

 
This was taken sometime last week or so, when we went to a Valentine craft at one of our libraries.  Kylie enjoyed making a pretty valentine for her dadda!
 
 
 
 
Today on the other hand, not so fun when she woke up and vomited a couple times, and then again a little while later.  Needless to say we have been laying low on this Valentine's Day and making Valentines and watching movies.  She is doing well overall, and no temp, so that is one less thing to worry about.  Hoping the stomach bug gets squished here pretty soon.  Loving our sweet Valentine girl!

Kylie's Grandma Nancy bought her such a beautiful dress for her to wear for Christmas.  I was instantly in love with it when we saw it, and the matching tights and shoes...simply beautiful!  I took the shoes to a store with me to try and match the color to make a headband.  I found the perfect match, and it all came together so perfectly for our princess!
 
With everything all put together, we were off to meet the big guy!  So here are some pics I got of her before we headed out. 
 
 
 

 
 
 
 
 
Despite what Matt may say, she is not praying for me to stop taking her pics :)
 
 
 
 
 
 
They had this old truck outside the store with lights on it...Kylie thought it would be fun to hop on the side. 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 Here we are getting close look at one of Santa's elves.
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
Look, it's one of Frosty's friends!
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
Kylie and Matt playing with the electric race track.
 

 
 
 
 
 
Time to drive the trains

 
 
 
 
 
 
Okay, so the big guy wasn't scheduled to show up until later that afternoon, it's okay because it was good practice and she got to sit in his chair for this sweet pic!

 
 
 
 
 
This girl absolutely loves to make silly faces.  It is almost tiring for me to do her hair in the morning, because she keeps on making silly faces at herself in the mirror.  I try to enforce a no wiggling, and no faces while I do you hair, but she just can't help herself....she is her father's daughter aka goofball.
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
There's my sweet girl!

 
 
 
 
 
Okay, so I think this way from Operation Meet Santa take 2. 
 

 
 
 
 
 
She's got her letter to Santa with what she wants and good things she did this year (last year).
 
 
 
 
 
 
First time she sat by Santa all by herself, and we didn't need to be in the pic too!  She smiled for the pic they took, and that was incredible!  Yay for her getting so big and doing so many great things!
 
 
 
 

They had a carousel at Bass Pro too and she was so happy to get the Polar Bear!
 

 
 
 
 
 
Beautiful smile and looking at the camera! 
 
 
 
 
 
 
This one is just too sweet!
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
We went over to visit Frandma to make a gingerbread house she had gotten for us.  I thought working on it with her would be for some fun and sweet memories to share.  These girls were hard at work.  I think it was the first gingerbread house for all of us, so that made it more fun!
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
I think it turned out great!
 
 
 
 
 
After we were all finished, Kylie asked Frandma to read her a book that Frandma used to read to Matt when he was little.   I couldn't help but snap a couple pics of the two ladies.
 
 
 
 
 
 
This is one that would just melt your heart!
 

 
 
 
A quick snapshot of Kylie wearing a Christmas outfit I made her.
 

 
 
 
We were so happy to join our friends and the celebration of their sweet little girl's first birthday!  Sorry, I didn't get a good shot of the three of them together but this one sure is cute! 
 
 
 
 
 
 
Kylie was so happy to see her friend Dylan at the party...just look at how cute they are together!
 

 
 
 
Our little lady was under the weather, so we hung out on the couch for a few days watching movies and laying low.  She just looks so sad when she is sick :(

 




She was finally fever free, but not really up to snuff for her last OT session.  Yep, she graduated from OT and it was to be her last session, but we opted out to play it safe since she was still pretty run down.  We did get to drop off some gifts for her OT.  A scarf and a photo book I made of Kylie and her OT, as well as pics of Kylie doing things she didn't do before but can now do....all thanks to her OT!
