Gymnastics Class

Straddle jumping...look at that form! :)

Our other little future gymnast ;)

Trying the rings for the first time....

And yup...she got up like that all by herself! She is sooo strong! :)

Gymnastics is going well. McKenzie loves it. :) Not much elese is going on around here. Today, we went to Target and spent some of Kylie and McKenzie's birthday/Valentines' Day money. It was so much fun! We got an Ariel barbie doll, an animal hospital, and a poppy thing for Kylie. It was sooo cold, though. We are over the weather and praying for a free trip south. Far south. Unfortunately, it's not likely to happen, but God knows the desires of our hearts! :) Hope everyone is well....Thanks for reading :)

Our Family at Kylie's Birthday Party

Kylie's Birthday Party

Cupcakes to celebrate! :)

"There's gotta be more in here!"

Kylie's 1 year birthday party was on Saturday. We were very blessed to have my family and Rob's mom and 2 aunts drive up to spend the day with us. :) Kylie was in a pretty good mood, considering we all awoke with colds that morning. She did awesome and had a great time playing with other things as we opened her gifts. She found a few she really enjoyed :) She loved everything everyone gave her....a purple chair from Gramma and Boppa (she loves it!), clothes, and lots of neat fun toys. We are very blessed and celebrate her first year of life. She has been such a blessing and we couldn't imagine life without our little "Kylie Bear" as I call her :)

Potty Training....and Kylie...and Life :)

McKenzie is pretty much potty trained. She went 4 days with no accidents! Again, I don't count night time because we are not there yet :) Tomorrow morning, we are going to visit her possible new preschool for next year. It's right here in town and her teacher, Miss Judy, has been teaching there for 16 years!!! I just want to make sure it's legitimate and that all is well. I am hoping McKenzie will enjoy it. We are also going to try and change her gymnastics class to Tuesday nights. We'll have to see how it goes. Sometime this week, she and I may be going to the mall with "Aunt Laura" to pick out her pretty big white dress to be a flower girl!!! We are so excited. :)
Kylie is doing super well and she is such a snugglebug. :) I swear the girl cannot go to sleep without smelling me/having me hold her, which is such a blessing. We went shopping for her Elmo-themed birthday party next Saturday and it will be soooo cool! I do not have the talents of my friend Shelby :), but I will do my best! We're having chicken and all other sorts of good food, yet to be determined by my Costco run later this week. We're having chocolate cupcakes for desert :)
Let's see...other than that, you know Rob's job is pretty good :) We're still praising God for helping us through this round of cuts. :) Today, he got to go on the roof and play with his "man toys" while he broke gigantically huge, world-record icicles off of our house. It was so crazy because with the "heatwave" today, they were making water leak into our laundry room! I applied to teach online for the University of Phoenix and am waiting to hear back from them. We'll have to see how that goes...:) Well...I have students online right now with Tutor.com :) I better go! Thanks for reading my ramblings. Have a wonderful week! :)
