A brief undate!

Well life is great here at the Minert's...Kaisley is getting so close to sitting up...it is so cute, still a little tippsy....but she thinks she is such a big girl.  Kaisley and I are keeping pretty busy doing little projects, playing, cleaning, and of course sleeping...Kaisley loves to sleep!  I am so lucky she lets mommy get a lot of stuff done, including time for me to be creative....I included a picture of my latest project because it turned out so cute, Mary I thought of you while making it, I will have to show you how to make it the next time I come home!  Well hope everyone is staying warm this crazy winter season....can we think SPRING yet....the cold and snow are really getting old!  We may be in for a very long winter, especially here in Poky!

Look at her...isn't she getting so BIG!
She always makes this confused look, when I get the camera out...

Here is my lovely brooch I made...isn't beautiful!  Thanks to Etsy I was able to make a friend already, in Omaha...the lady who sold me this kit lives there and gave me an invite to go to craft/art night with her...she is an amazing artist and seamstress, I can't wait to go!  I have a few more colors...won't this look so cute on Kaisley...

Kaisley's very own chair...

Here she is mauling the piglet....she has just started putting everything in her mouth.  She thinks everything is a chew toy...
She had been in the chair long enough time to suck the thumb and take a snoozzzz
She just got finished crying, putting on this suit isn't her favorite thing...

Doesn't she look hilarious in this picture, this was the first time I put her in the stroller without the carseat, I think she liked looking out!


When I got this chair the other day, I got it thinking she would appreciate it much more when she actually fits in it...but to my surprise she already thinks it's pretty cool she spent about 20 minutes on it and let me tell you she loves those pink poka dots!  She thinks they are quite fascinating!  Later that day I had to get out of the house and since the sun was shinning it made it very enjoyable...if it wasn't for that crazy pocatello wind I think I could have worn a jacket and not a big puffy coat.  Well Kaisley hates getting into her pink striped suit, especially because it covers her little fingers so she can't suck on her thumb.  She didn't stop trying I think the entire stroll because when we got home her suit was soaked well, just on the hands.  Well life is just grand here, Chris is back into the swing of things and so are me and Kaisley.  Until next time....Oh, and by the way I can't post any of my videos???  What is the deal, it says there is an error, I wonder if it's because I have a mac?  HeLp.....I have a bunch of fun videos you will all enjoy :)

Our Christmas break in a nutshell....


We had a wonderful Break, so sad it had to come to an end....Kaisley's first Christmas was great, she got to meet and "play" with her new cousin Evan and Tesla, meet some more family including her uncle Brian who arrived home just in time for the Christmas season from his mission in Texas!  It was so much fun having him home, we love you Brian!  Well back to life here in Pocatello we are now all looking forward to Spring and moving to Omaha in May!  Maybe it is a little to early to be wishing for spring but it's what keeps us going...love you all!

Aunt Emily and Kaisley waiting for Brians arrival... 
Can you tell by the expression on Elly's face, she wasn't so sure about being on top of Riley's shoulders...as for Ford and Izabel they loved it!  so
 cute...
Meeting Uncle Brian for the first time!
