Holiday cheer

So I kinda skipped right past Thanksgiving. Mostly because I didnt take any pictures and I had to work a lot around the holiday. I know....LAME!
Anyway Josh and I wanted to do something with Kinsey that was service oriented but she is too young for most volunteer things.
My fab Gma lives in an assisted living facility on the east side and just loves to have visitors. So my plan was to have Kinsey help me back cookies, package them all prettily and deliver them to the residents while visiting my gma! Total kill 2 birds with one stone project! Gma loves visitors and Kinsey was getting to give to others!
Much to my suprise this was a total success. She loved helping me bake and was an excellent assistant packager. Granny walked us throught the facility and we knocked on doors, handing the resident cookies and wishing them happy holidays! They all adored Kinsey and she just ate up all of the attention. I hope we brought some holiday cheer to some who may not have anyone who visits them.
This will definitely be repeated next year.
Next years goal: Take more than one picture :(

Sleep over

Nothing beats movie night!!! Kinsey, Josh and I rented the Cat in the Hat (I bet you can tell who had the most say in that rental), moved all of the furniture out of the living room and brought out the sleeping bags and pillows. Popcorn was popped and everyone had a great time! Then the movie ended, it was 10pm and Kinsey was running around the house like a mad woman!
At that point an executive decision was made to abort operation sleep over and put that girl to bed!
In the end we got to spend some super awesome family time together and mommy and daddy didnt have to wake up in the morning with sore backs from sleeping on the floor! Score!

Whoa Baby Im behind

These past couple of months have been complete insanity. First of all, Im nearly nine months prego and a complete slug. Second of all, our computer died and I have been without one until a few weeks ago. And third of all, I still am having a hard time acclimating myself to these new computer. Nonetheless, here we go. I am going to start where I left off. Next up......Halloween!!! I know! Dont laugh but if I dont post about it how am I going to remember this stuff people???
Kinsey was an absolutely perfect bumble bee! We went to the zoo and there was entirely too much stimulation there. The next night we went trick or treating in the neighborhood. She was a pro! We finished off the night at grandma and grandpas. Enjoy the pics!
