Family Traditions

Tonight we took Kynzley to the Rotary Lights, a tradition that Francis and I have had since our first Christmas together.

Kynzley had her second Christmas today! She was able to spend the afternoon with great grandma and grandpa!  The gg's thought it would be a great idea to get McKenna and Kynzley marshmallow lollipops :-) and of course Nana thought it was a great idea to let the girls eat them!

Loving her lollipop! She was a mess!

McKenna 18 months, Kynzley 9 months

Tis the season ... for lots of family gatherings, food and gifts! Kynzley enjoyed her first "Christmas" today! She had a great time with Nana and Papa Twite and all the cousins and aunties! We were very sad to miss the Holicky Christmas but are hoping to help celebrate next year!

So Messy!

On The Move!

Kynzley is crawling!!!! She has been working very hard to get up and go and on Sunday, December 12, 2010, she finally did it! It was exciting because both Francis and I were playing with her when she made up her mind that it was time to move.  You can tell she is loving her new independence. She is having a hard time trying to stay up on our hardwood floors, but she has been able to explore the basement and her bedroom. Let the fun begin!!

Her first crawl was towards the laptop playing her favorite version of "twinkle, twinkle"

There she is!

She's off to explore!

Her poor knees :-(

Sledding and Teeth Brushing!

Last week Kynzley had caught the horrible cold going around so we were not able to take her out in the first snow fall. Lately she is feeling MUCH better so we were able to take her sledding. Our front yard is at a slope, so it was perfect! She loved it!!!!!

Kynzley also started brushing her teeth! She loves to keep her smile beautiful!!



Walker Time!

Kynzley LOVES her walker! Usually she travels around in it at Nana Lori's house, but we decided to bring it home and let her loose on the hardwood floors. So far she has had a ton of fun exploring around the kitchen and sitting room. She is very nosey and VERY daring, we will be saying "no" an awful lot!

I thought she was following me, but then I heard the drawer
