Painting with Kylie......

Kylie had to first rearrange the furniture in the "kids" room
We got an apron on her and she thought she ruled the place
I'm not sure what she is doing in this pic, just being cute
I was helping Kylie put her finger print on Nana's plate
Kylie had to inspect our work.....she thought we were almost done

Kylie even got to paint her piece of pottery

No this isn't the plate she did for Grandma, this is her plaque that she got to sponge paint.
For Mother's Day this year, I decided to take each of the Grandmas to The Naked Plate in Grandville and let them pick a piece of pottery and then paint it with Kylie. It was so much fun and I think actually doing the project with Kylie was more of a gift then what the actual plates will be :) I actually picked up the second plate tonight (I had to wait a week for it to get fired) and I will take pictures of them before I give them to the Grandmas and post our finished products. Kylie had so much......

Hanging with Miss Kylie......or little Miss Personality

Kylie wanted to give Mia her water, so we put it in a cup and she dumped it into Mia's bowl....she loves her doggie so much!
She loves playing with everything. She found the diaper box and used it for a seat....she had so much fun climbing on it and then just sitting on it.


Kylie put her two Build-A-Bears on the couch and then got her "Becca Blanket" and covered up the bears, and then gave them each a kiss and said, "Night night, Love you!" Ummmm.....yeah.....she is so cute!

Happy Easter.....

Checking out her basket from Grandma and Granpa
Smiles and Easter eggs
Checking out her snacks
Trying to blow her new bubbles with Uncle Josh and Daddy
Dancing and jumping with Uncle Josh
At Nana and Papa's, all smiles!
She wouldn't smile so we asked her to show us teeth and her tongue.....we kind of got a smile!
Checking out her Easter basket/ wagon from Nana and Papa
Kylie decided to put her new shovel and pail to good use, she filled her pail with Rembrandt's dog food and then scooped it into his dish......she loved it, and had so much fun....who knew that a shovel and pail wasn't just for the sand :)
Evidently she liked showing her tongue and her goofy smile....can you tell she had been playing hard all day....her pigtails came out early in the day and I never got them back in, her hair was so fly away because she was running, dancing, and jumping all day.

A Day At The Zoo

The monkeys were cracking her up....they were playing and flying around their little house.....I think we spent at least 15 minutes watching them
Kylie and Emily and Clair.....my cousins little girls, they had a blast and got along really well. Emily(in the green coat) is the oldest and Kylie just took to her and thought she was the greatest
She wanted to hold Emily's hand and Em was a good sport and so sweet to Kylie, she didn't mind having her follow her and hold on her.
Kylie had so much fun hanging out with Uncle Matt....she loves him so much!

Happy Birthday Daddy and other Kylie adventures

Kylie decided that she wanted to put her apron on while we made Daddy's birthday cake and when I told her that the apron had her name on it, it said Kylie, she looked at me in all sincerity and pointed to herself and said, "I Kylie, me."

I was showing Kylie what at her purchased for her at Michigan City and she took each thing as I showed them to her and put them on her stroller and then proceeded to walk around the house, stopping once in awhile to take an item off her stroller and look at it and then say, "Cute"

Here she is modeling a couple of her new items, a cute hat from Baby Gap Outlet and an adorable dress from the Tommy Outlet.
After the cake was baked and Kylie took a nap, we went to the store and purchased decorating icing, I held the can and let Kylie move my arm around and decorate Todd's birthday cake however she wanted. I think she did a great job! Below she is enjoying the yummy cake......it was delicious!

Butterflies!!!!

Peek
She was so excited to see the butterflies.
"Oh, Flutt-flies......Oh, my goodness"

The girls playing with the gate


During the week when Todd had to take a lay-off, we took Kylie to Frederick Meijer Gardens and met up with our Friends Jason and Jenny and their daughter, Josie....the girls had so much fun checking out the butterflies, and then we took them out to the Children's Garden where they could dig in the dirt and play on toys.....the girls had so much fun hanging out and of course loved seeing the butterflies!
