December 2018

We kicked off December by decorating the tree the day after Thanksgiving.  We love this tradition, and htis year Kail wanted to help . . . or rather he wanted to stand on the ladder a lot.


Our air quality has been less then steller so we spend a lot of our outings walking around stores.  We just can't get over how cute he is in his "bear" coat.  Because of the collar we told him this coat was like Captin Barnicle who is a polar bear on his favorite show Octonoats.  Now he loves his coat.

Sunday Morning and 30 degrees outside Kail wanted to go drive his four wheeler.  My response is to say its way too cold, but Jordan just pulls up the hood of his hoodie and out he goes, he is such a good daddy.



Kail has taken to playing with his toys a lot more lately, which means my living room is a mess but he is so funny to watch as he makes up stories with all the different characters.

All Kail wanted from Santa this year was a candy cain.  We keep asking but thats all he will tell us, so imagin his delight when we got to see Santa at the ward party.  After standing in line for 40 minutes (completely his idea, mom would have been happy to skip the line but Kail draged me there) he refused to sit in Santa's lap or even look at him really, but Santa gave him a candy cane and he LOVED it.







You can't tell from the pictures because Kail is the one opening presents and blowing out candles, but this is DADDY's birthday.  Kail keeps informing us it was his so I guess he is 4 now.  Again Daddy is a really good Daddy, and Mommey hopes he had a good birthday.

And to wrap things up before Trigg officialy joins the family, we went to see the lights on temple square.  We have never see Kail get SO hyper before, not to say he wasn't well behaved, because he was but he was off the wall for the rest of the night.  It was so much fun and Mommy was greatful that Daddy decided to try and go for the second time this year.  The first time we were completely unable to find a parking spot.

Construction

I try to keep these post centered around the kids but this should be a big deal to them as well, so as you can tell the Daycare is coming along quickly. 
We are so excited to see it all go up, even if it has become quite a muddy mess.
















Thanksgiving


I was unfortunatly a slacker this year when it came to pictures at Thanksgiving.  We kept it low key this year but it was so much fun.  We went to Aunt JaNae and fam's house, went out to eat and then back to the house for pie.  Due to little Trigg's eminent arrival we also did Christmas.  Kail just loves playing with his cousin Nora. 





Kail's 3rd Birthday

 


Our little Kail truned 3.  We just had a small party this year, really just cake, ice cream and presents but so we were so greatful when that night as he went to bed and I asked him if he had a nice birthday he wispered. "Best Birthday Ever".  We love him so much, he is such a good boy with a soft heart and we are so greatful he is apart of our family.

We went to the store a few days before his birthday to get his cake.  When we asked him what kind of cake he wanted all he would tell us was "sprinkles" so I planned on just getting him a ton of sprinkles.  Instead he found blue frosting that had fish sprinkles in it and was SO excited, because the fish made it an Octonaute cake.  He also asked for black frosting to write his name in, but when mom when to write Happy Birthday on the cake he freaked out because I was covering up his fish sprinkles.


 

Daddy found some "Super Wing" action figures and Kail cannot get enough of them.  We struggle with keeping him off the screen sometimes, but the first thing he said when he woke up the next day was "Play with my Super Wings?".  Go Daddy for getting the best present ever.


He may not have gotten a lot of presents for his birthday, but he was so excited about them.

Then he got to go to Kangaroo Zoo and throw himself around on the blowup toys.  Thank you to Grandma & Grandpa Pace for this outing, he had a blast!
