Gingerbread Story

Kelsey, Ya-Ya, and Aunt Jane went to the library to hear the Gingerbread Story and decorate gingerbread men. Kelsey made 4 of them. She had a great time.

Here are her masterpieces.

This is what happens when daddy does my hair!

Check Up

Kelsey had her 2 year check up yesterday. She is doing great. She only picked up a little over a pound, but gained several inches. She is a tall girl. She is in the 70th percentile for height because they measured her standing up. Apparently you lose an inch when they do that, otherwise she would have been in the 90th percentile. She is in the 50th percentile for weight. She will need to get her eyes checked this summer and she'll see a dentist next year. So, everything looks good!

Party at Bounce U

We had Kelsey's party at Bounce U this morning in Lexington. It's a place with a room full of inflatables for kids AND parents to enjoy. I think the adults had as much as the kids. For instance...here is one set of grown-ups that played. Gee, where are the kids?!

Gracie and Daniel

Misty and Melody

Libby and Gretchen

Birthday Girl!

So maybe it wasn't a good idea for all of us to go down at the same time...but it was FUN!!

Rusty and Kelsey

After an hour of bouncing we went to the party room for pizza, cake, and presents. Kelsey was not interested in the pizza, but she LOVED the cake. Of course, she didn't want to eat it. She just kept saying "Roro!" So here is the best birthday cake ever. It was well worth the wait and a big hit. It not only looked pretty, but tasted WONDERFUL.

Kelsey's 2nd round of presents. She still has a few more that will be coming in the mail, so at least 2 more rounds!

Everyone else is eating, but Kelsey is being social and sitting in her royal Bounce U chair.

Kelsey's 2 years old!!!

Kelsey, Ya-Ya, Grampy, Rusty, and I went to Chuck E Cheese to celebrate her birthday. She didn't really want to ride any of the rides. She really liked playing the different games.
Then, we went home and Grampy bought Kelsey a little cake for her to eat and we opened presents. Kelsey got some neat stuff. So, round 1 of presents! It sure didn't take her long to figure out how to open those presents. She is a pro!

Kelsey sees Santa

Kelsey, Ya-Ya, Grampy, and I went to visit Santa on lunch one day. Kelsey loved Santa or HoHo from afar, but not up close. We got a picture, but she is clearly distraught! Then, she made a birdfeeder out of a pine cone, peanut butter, and birdseed. She had a great time making her bird snack!

Decorating for Christmas

Kelsey helped me decorate one of our trees this year. She did a great job!!

There is one part of the tree that Kelsey thought was extra special since that is where she put ALL of her ornaments and garland!!

So far she has been pretty good about leaving the ornaments on the tree and not really touching them too much. But, she loves the presents and we have not been able to put those under the tree yet.
