Staying Busy

I have learned very quickly that I must keep Kaitlin busy or she will be grumpy very quickly! Today we played outside, went on a wagon ride and played dress up this was all before lunch!

I was surprised she knew who Tinkerbelle was but as soon as she got the outfit on she started flapping her wings!  She pretended to fly around and thought she was pretty cool!!

Kaitlin woke up from her nap and played with her Dr.’s kit then decided to be a Dr. Princess Cupcake maker. How many costumes can this child wear in one day! These cupcakes came with erasable makers so you can decorate the cupcake and then start all over again!  She was covered head to toe in marker ( Amazingly NONE on her clothes) but she was entertained for over an hour! I was glad that Kory gave her a bath… she was very dirty!

We had a very busy day but it was really fun!

Summer Days

It was hot and humid yesterday in NWA! It almost felt like the beach without the ocean. I will take hot over tornados any day! We are loving playing outside and going for walks. Everything is better in the summer!

Kaitlin and Brownie BFFs!

We have been pretending to be different animals! She will flap her wings like a bird or crawl like a bear.  This is Kaitlin’s impression of a walrus!

Even if it is a little blurry I LOVE this smile!

So thankful for Kaitlin’s “snack traps”! It has helped me from goldfish spills all over our house!

We are ready for another HOT day!

Whirlwind Weekend

We just got back from a whirlwind weekend in Knoxville. It was a bittersweet weekend with the loss of Kory’s grandmother. Myldred was a wonderful, Godly woman and such a sweet spirit. All 3 of us were blessed to see her 2 weeks ago at home and Kaitlin had the best time hiding Easter Eggs and playing hide the birdie with her Great Grandmother. I put the eggs in Kaitlin’s hope box with her most important keepsakes. We will treasure those eggs forever. The weekend was all about family and we were blessed to be there.

Aunt Rachel and Kaitlin had fun with some sidewalk chalk.

Kory and I are so thankful for our family and we are so blessed! We saw all our brothers and sisters this weekend and it was a time of wonderful fellowship! We were all at dinner one night which rarely happens and they told us told us to wait right here! I gladly did!

My sweet parents kept Kaitlin and she already misses them. They did so much with her each day and she slept great at night after being so busy all day.

We went with all of Kory’s family to the BEST pizza place Big Ed’s! Kaitlin and Kiley are big buds and they had fun hugging and taking pictures. All of cousins were so good with her and she had so much fun with them.

We had so much fun with Aunt Gina and laughed the entire time she was with us! We can’t wait to see her again this summer!

We got to relax a little on the lake on Sunday with Rachel! It was a wonderful view on the water and it was warm but not HOT! It was a great time to catch up and laugh!

We had a long drive back yesterday but there is no where else I would have rather been than at home!
