Don't let your kid see the pics on your digital camera...

...or they will never let you snap pictures of them again.


The end of innocence. Or something. I'm sleep-deprived people.

2 month update.

Kaylee is 2 months old now! Time is flying by (I keep reminding myself that when I am insanely sleep-deprived). I just find that lately I don't have any time to update the blog- especially since my mom went back to work.

OK, gotta go- someone's crying!

Best Blog of 2011??

Not mine, people. Check it out here, if you haven't already read the awesomeness:

Love that kid!!

Jowls...

I love this pic of Kaylee and had to share. She is 5 1/2 weeks old here.

Grandma Monika and Auntie Lizzie Are Here!

Last week Chris' mom and sister came to visit. It was pretty rainy and overcast, and they were only here for a few days, but we had fun anyways.

For instance, Kendall loves hearing Grandma read her the Oops book. See the video at the end of this post for more.

Kaylee loved hearing the German lullaby Grandma sang her. (See video).

And she loved being held in her arms.

Grandma taught me how to make Streusselkuchen (streussel cake). Streusselkuchen is German for, "Dangthat'sgoodcanIhaveanotherpiece."

We had fun baking. Lizzie ate almost all the raw dough. I am surprised we had any left to bake. Luckily, we made a lot.It's pretty yummy. Lots of butter and sugar.
Did I mention we made a lot?
Overall we had fun hanging out and enjoying their company. We can't wait until their next visit!

Merry Christmas, 2010!

What a very fun Christmas...Kaylee's first, Kendall's second, and Brandon's 9th. Kendall still didn't really "get it" as far as the presents went. We had to help her open all her presents. She was very happy with everything she got, though. One of her favorite toys was this new car...

On Christmas Eve we went to Grandma's house and had a wonderful dinner (thank you, Mom!) and opened presents.



There was this amazing big dog at grandma's house big enough to ride on. Kendall instantly adopted him.
Brandon didn't get everything he wanted...good thing he still has to go to his dad's house and open presents ;0). Ah, to be 9 and have not learned how to be tactful. (Hmmm, what's my excuse?lol)
"Mindflex"
Santa brought Chris a leopard snuggie. He has his I-look-good-and-I-know-it look on his face. A look I am way too familiar with!
And this one inherited that look from her daddy. See the pictures below for proof!
Kaylee's first Christmas present!
She likes it!
If this face doesn't make you feel merry, then you really are a scrooge!
Merry Christmas to all our wonderful friends and family! Love, Chris, Aly, Brandon, Kendall, adn Kaylee.
