Visiting Santa, picking out a Christmas Tree & More!!

This last week has been incredibly busy!! Last weekend we went down to visit Keith's parents and while we were there we went to visit Santa and picked out a Christmas tree!! Santa didn't phase Kaylyn at all, but Kylee was not so stoked. If you look closely at the picture with Santa, Kaylyn is holding on to Kylee's arm to comfort her!

Every year Keith's parents go to a local Christmas tree farm in Alpine and cut down their own tree, and this year was no different except this was the first time the girls got to go! We found a beautiful tree and Keith and Auntie Danielle cut it down. Both of the girls loved the lights on the tree, and Kaylyn even tried to climb the ladder and help Grandpa put them up.


Unfortunately somewhere during our adventures both the girls acquired a little cold, and have had non-stop runny noses and a little cough. So that is never fun! I hope they get over it before Christmas!

Yesterday was really the first rainy day we have had yet this year, and the girls were fascinated by it! They stood at the sliding glass window almost all day pointing out the window and "talking" about the rain. It was very cute!

Kylee and Kaylyn have both mastered standing up in the middle of the room unassisted without pulling up on something! They also love to "talk" on the phone, and even put the phone up to their ears. Kylee loves her baby doll, and carries it around with her all the time, and she can even say "Baby" now as clear as day. If you ask her where her baby is, she will go get it and bring it to you. I really think they are starting to understand a lot more of what we say!

On a little bit of a gross note, we had a fun toddler moment this morning! Apparently Bandit threw up and unfortunately the girls found it before I did and decided it would be a good idea to finger paint on the tile with it! EWWW!! They were both very unhappy when I disrupted their finger painting party!

I hope everyone is doing well!
