New camera...Kaisley reaches some milestones...


Wow, it has been awhile since I've done a "real" post. Lets see where do I began...First of all our baby girl isn't a baby anymore, she turned 2! That was a wonderful celebration, more on that later, I still need the photos from my friend...she loved her special day let me tell you, she ate up "it's my birthday", phrase every chance she got. I can't believe how quickly time flies...Another big milestone Kaisleys reached....drum roll please...she is POTTY TRAINED!!! She did so GREAT, I think I was preparing for the worst and she definitely surprised me...being my daughter and all tiny bladders don't give you much hope when trying to train a 2 year old to pee in the potty...but luckily she inherited some of her daddy's genes ;) Don't get me wrong we had our moments of struggle last week...especially when daddy left us all alone for a weekend while he went home for a BSU game. Yeah, totally not fair I was super jealous, but Chris had an AMAZING time hangin' out with his brothers/buddies doin' what they love...football football football...need I say more. I never new how wonderful it would feel to have potty training behind you, it's great and I also never new how excited one could get over a little poo and pee! Good Job Kaisley, you ROCK my world! (or should I say RULE my world)

Below, Kaisley found a snail on the sidewalk, she was fascinated by this little fellow.
Love...love those eyes, this is who I get to hang out with everyday!

Look at how cute she is on the potty :)

Saying CHEESE! can ya tell..

Summer in Review...

just a tiny bit of our summer(i wish i had more pictures)...I know it is way past due for a post! But in my defense all we have is the camera on our iphone, so quality and quantity are lacking. Anyways, we had a terrific summer vacation packed full of family and friends! Kaisley enjoyed getting to know all her fun cousins and of course being spoiled by the grandparents...Our long 17 hour journey home and back went flawless, besides only a few screaming moments from little gal...and if you can believe it we went straight from Boise to Omaha in one day! That was crazy but let me tell ya not as bad as I thought, Kaisley did awesome sleeping a lot of the way so we went for it and all I can say is that the thought of sleeping in my own bed was great motivation for the long car ride. Anyways, we're back into the swing of things and lovin our little life here in the mid-west. It makes me sad to say that summer is over but the crisp fresh autumn air is lovely for a bit of a change...below are some random photos that I thought were blog worthy.

Our little Super hero! She put this together all by herself...so funny

Enjoying the outdoor brick oven at Brandon and Mallorys...all I can say is AMAZING pizza, definitely having one of these in my backyard some day!
A early birthday celebration for Kaisley, she was loving all the attention that is for sure.

Thats all for now, I am getting my new camera soon so I promise to be better at the updates! xo
