Our attempt at a family picture....those crazy kids never cooperate at the same time s
Since we have put our tree up, I keep finding Kylie just sitting and looking at the lights and ornaments
Kylie with Santa, she did such a great job, she jumped right up in his lap and talked to him. She is very into the whole Santa and Christmas stuff this year, it is so much fun!
Playing in the snow, I had a snow day and it really wasn't that bad outside so Kylie and I bundled up and went out for about 45 min. If you really know me, you know that was a stretch for me due to the fact that I hate the cold and get bored in the snow easily. It actually wasn't too bad that day. Kylie loved it and I had to drag her inside and bribe her with Mac and Cheese. The next day Todd took her outside and they were out for about an hour, but it was a little later in the day, so a little colder and she wasn't too upset about coming in. The next snow day was a lot colder, so we did not venture out, we shall see what the rest of the winter brings.
The zoo in December?! We went to Christmas For the Animals at the Zoo.....we brought a bag full of gifts for the animals; sheets, shampoo, pickle relish, yogurt......just a few things for the enrichment programs. We got to see Santa's reindeer and then walk around and see some of the animals. We also got to make an ornament and Kylie was able to play limbo and win a little Lion stuffed animal. She had a blast, even if it was a little cold.
