Our tiny dancer....

I know I have posted video's of Kambryn dancing before but this one is by far the funniest!

Where have we been.....

I can't believe that it has been so long since I have posted anything. Sometimes time just slips right by you. Not much to report on our end, just some little things. Kambryn has decided that she wants to potty train and I have to say it really has been a breeze. I always knew that she would be that kid you couldn't push to do something before she was ready and sure enough here we are on her terms. She is doing so great and has been accident free for a week now. We are so proud!

As for Mr. Kolten he has had a rough time over the last week. Last Tuesday he started running a fever and he continued to climb up to 104.5. As you can imagine I was totally freaked out and we went to the doctor and were swabbed for everything they could think of, of course everything came back clean. So after 4 days of this high fever they put us in the hospital for testing, they did bloodwork and took a urine sample and still everything was "normal". Needless to say his fever remained high for 5 days but he is finally on the mend. We are thrilled, no if we can just get him to sleep in his room and sleep through the night, but I will save that for another post.

I better get off the computer now because Kambryn is reminding me that today is the day she gets to go to Target and pick out her "special surprise" for not having any potty accidents. I also included a few pictures of Kolten from the hospital, he doesn't look sick but is running a very high fever at the time.

Santa came to our house.....

Well, we all made it through Christmas and now are dealing with the aftermath. The kids both were blessed with way to many things and have enjoyed playing with new toys. Kambryn got her dollhouse that she has been asking for and we have rarely seen her the past few days because she has been so busy playing with it. Santa also blessed Kolten with some pj's that fit him, he is just so long that he needs 12 month things already. Kyle got his Wii and I got the Wii fit, I am already committing to using it and hopefully can loose the baby weight. Here are a few pictures from the holidays.

Gingerbread house and jumperoo....

Well we have had a busy weekend. Kyle and I finally got up the nerve to attempt the gingerbread house with Kambryn. She loved decorating it with all the little candies. The problem that we ran into with her was she was not patient....I know right, big surprise. When I was doing the icing it needed to set for a few minutes but she couldn't wait and began placing her candies all over. So of course they all began to slide down the roof and we had to begin repairs. Oh well, it is the memories that you make during these little projects not the actual project itself. Kolten was great and he just jumped in his jumperoo and laughed at Kambryn being very silly.

Elf on the Shelf.....

Ok, so we got Elf on the Shelf today and it is so cute. For those of you that don't know what this is, let me fill you in. It is a cute little pixie elf that sits on the shelf (or anywhere in your house) and watches and reports back to Santa if you have been naughty or nice. I comes with a cute book that tells the kids all about the elf and what he does. Well, we got out the book and read all about it and then put the elf, Kambryn named ours Charlie, on the TV in our family room. The story encourages kids to tell the elf there secrets or what they want for Christmas but never to touch him because he will loose his magic. Sooooo, after we placed Charlie and went about our business I heard Kambryn telling Kolten, "That is Charlie, he tells Santa we are good, say Hi to Charlie, Kolten" It was so cute, then she said " Kolten wants a truck and a hammer and I want a dollhouse". I am really going to love this new little tradition and I hope that it makes some great memories for the kids also.

The Christmas Card

Ok, I know it has been over a month since I last posted anything but we have been very busy. We have attempted 4 different times to get a good picture of the kids for a christmas card. We have finally been successful! Here are a few of the other attempts and also the one that we decided to go with.

Conversation with Kambryn

I had a funny conversation with Kambryn tonight......
Mommy: Kambryn what are you doing?
Kambryn: Getting my wallet.
Mommy: Why, are you going some where?
Kambryn: Yeah, going to Wal-Mart
Mommy: Oh really, ok see you later

She comes back a few minutes later from her playroom and says
Kambryn: Hi Mommy, I got strawberries, hot dogs and chicken
Mommy: Oh thank you for doing the grocery shopping.
Kambryn: (Signs, with hands on her hips) Mommy you made me forget!
Mommy: What
Kambryn: The MILK!!! (she states loudly as she throws her hands in the air and walks away in disgust)

I have obviously had a similar experience with Kambryn lately with forgetting the milk and I find is so funny that she is acting it out in her own way here at home. She is such a funny kid, never a dull moment in our house.
