I know, I know.......

Again it has been way too long since I posted.....So since my last post Kylie has been saying some of the cutest things.....for example, "What the heck is the deal, daddy? Seriously?" and "Guys, Guys, Listen to me" and "Really?" I think that I have asked Kylie what outfit she wants to wear a little too much, she will hold up two similar toys and say, "Which one you like?" Usually it is the same thing only different colors, so we will respond with one of the colors and she will usually hand us the correct one. She still loves to sing and dance. Kylie loves watching Tinker Bell, both the first and the second one and also Cinderella. Lately instead of saying "Why" like most kids, she has been saying, "What". We are not sure which is worse. Kylie definitely has a sense of humor.....for example, just now as I am typing she was just bouncing off the couch....yup face first and said, "Awesome." Mia has been barking at the builders all morning and a little bit ago, she said, "What is her deal?" We have started getting out her watercolor paints and Aqua Doodle to help time pass with these dark cold evenings. It is no fun going outside, but we still have to entertain her so we have started being artistic.......I will have to take a few picture of her painting.
We never did get to a Michigan State football game.....we were too busy in September, and then by the time our weekends cleared up it was too cold to take Kylie. We keep hoping one of these Saturdays will be nice, but no luck yet. The way the Spartans have been playing football has been very frustrating anyway, so not sure we are up to going this year. Maybe we will make it to a basketball game, as long as Kylie gets to meet Sparty sometime, she won't care what sport we are watching.
Kylie was in her third Race for the Cure this past September. Our team just keeps growing and growing and it is amazing. This year we actually had more friends with strollers join us, it was fun to walk with everyone and help raise money for such a great cause that affects all of us. This year Aunt Amy ran it for the first time, we are so proud of her! She has been working really hard and has lost more than 50 pounds.
This year for Halloween Kylie went as her favorite, Tinker Bell. I was not such a fan of the fancy, "princess" style costume, so Nana made Kylie's costume this year. It was perfect. The weather was a little too cold for us though. We layered Kylie up with two long sleeve shirts and a pair of tights, and one of mommy's head wrap things, but she was still too cold. We made it to about 12 houses before she decided she was too cold and wanted to go home.
