Some Funnies from Kayla

Me: Kayla, do you what animal honey comes from? (I guess I should have said insect)

Kayla: Pooh Bear!

Me: Oopsie Daisy!!! (Donna has two dogs named Daisy and Peanut"

Kayla: Oopsie Peanut!!!

Kayla takes my bra and tries to put it on and says, "Look Mommy I'm wearing your boobies!"

Kayla pottied on the floor and said, "Look Mommy it's a circle! We can make smiley face!"

Instead of saying "I don't know" she says "I di bon't know"...it's the cutest thing ever

While at the church nursery she was given a small cup of water (no lid or straw). She looked at Mrs. Julie (her sitter) and said, "Help me get the water out!"

While saying prayers she will often pray for Nemo - her favorite blanket

She has made up a game called "Puddling". It involves taking our belts out of the belt drawer and sitting on them, tossing them around. I don't really get it.

We lost one of Kayla's shoes at a local restaurant called The Lazy Donkey. I told Kayla we would need to call Lazy Donkey and find out if they had her shoe. She put her hand to her mouth and said "Lazy Donkey!!!!" I guess she called him!!!

New Year/New Update

Hello all! Happy New Year a little late. I cannot believe it is already February. We are doing well at the moment. I will try to recap our holidays and get everyone up to speed.

Christmas was good. We spent Christmas Eve and Day with Dad, Donn, and Adam and the 26th with Cary's family. Kayla had a great time opening and testing out all of her new gifts. She received a toy vacuum cleaner, a xylophone, a dollhouse, a farm play set, a Dora sticker book (probably her favorite gift), a dancing Dora doll, some coloring books, a new outfit (she's in a 3T already), some stamps, a wooden alphabet game, and the "big" gift for the year was a mini laptop from Poppy Darden. She has her own computer!!! She plays games on it every now and then but I suspect she will use it more in a few months.

We had great food and great family fellowship.

New Year's Eve day we went to the Georgia Aquarium and the Varisty. Kayla loved the fish and especially finding her favorite, the Nemo fish. She also loved the 4D movie theatre where we were splashed with water and hit with jellyfish "tentacles". We had a quiet New Year at our house and made corn chowder and fruity pebble rice krispy treats. Kayla and I did not make it to midnight. It was nice to stay home for a change.

Other January highlights:

Mimi came for a visit in mid-January and brought a bunch of goodies for all of us to open. Kayla got some dress up shoes, a new coloring book, some bubbles, and another sticker book (she REALLY loves stickers). My Mom took one of our cats Jenny home with her to live and she has adjusted very well. We had a little bit of snow in January so we got to walk around in that for a day or two. The roads were very icy and we we didn't travel until it thawed out. We had fun staying around the house for a few days.

I am still working part time and home with Kayla on Tuesdays and Thursdays. We usually go to they gym in the mornings and then either to my women's group at church, the library, or meet with a friend. We usually do lunch at Chick-fil-a once a week. Kayla takes an afternoon nap for about 1.5 hours and then we color, do stickers, or play in our basement. She is a lot of fun and every day is a new adventure to her. She still has quite a few tantrums and can be whiny but the more she is able to communicate, the better that gets. She can play by herself quite a bit and loves to read a big stack of books. We're ready for the weather to warm up so we can play outside more!

At the 4D theatre at the Aquarium - too cool!
