Circus fun

 

Yesterday we took Kellyn to the Circus. Above is the picture outside of the expo center waiting on Uncle Preston ( we always have to wait on him, not sure what's up with that!). Notice her amazingly cute sun glasses. 

 Before the circus started they had elephant, pony, or camel rides. Kellyn was very interested in the elephants, but refused to ride. She did, however, ride the pony and was VERY upset when she had to get off the pony.

 Her second favorite part was cotton candy. She didn't even know what cotton candy was, but she knew it had the word candy in it so it must be delicious. As she can see from the picture above and below she couldn't get it in her mouth fast enough.

 At intermission she got to ride the pony again. We spent more on pony rides than it cost to get into the circus! I walked beside her and she was very adamant that I not touch her or HER pony. When it was time to get off she got into the pony face and told him thank you.

Snow!

We finally got show! I have been anxiously awaiting snow for many reasons. The main one being that I bought Kellyn some snow pants that she likely will not fit in next week and because I don't want to deal with bug issues with summer.  Below are some pictures of Kellyn all bundled up to pay in the snow.

long over-due update!

I apologize for a lack of posting recently. I've been having troubles uploading pictures so I get frustrated and quit. Kellyn is a fun, ornery, independent, loving, sweet and sometimes mean little two year old. She continues to impress everyone with her advance vocabulary and whit. Below are pictures of some of the fun things we have been doing the last couple of months.

We made bath tub paints. I took shaving cream ( Ryan never shaves his face anyway) and added food coloring. She thought it was awesome. The only problem was that I had to drain the tub and refill it to actually wash her.

We made sugar cookies for Santa. Kellyn helped decorate the cookies with frosting and sprinkles. I think she enjoyed taste testing more than the actual decorating part!

We went to Monkey Business one cold day. It is basically an indoor play center with huge inflatable bounce houses, slides and climbing. As you can see from the picture below she has zero fear and climbed the slides like  a champ.

We made play-dough one day. She helped me measure out the ingredients and picked the colors.

Luckily it has been a VERY mild winter so we've got to enjoy some out door time. I love this picture..  Look at those eyes!
