Big Sis turns 2 1/2!

Got these on clearance at childrensplace.com for 4.75 each for next summer. So cute. I know I am a nerd, but I love matching outfits on kids!

Getting ready for my little sister!


Taking good care of her baby dolls. Quintuplets!

Yum! Nestle Tollhouse cookies!


I have been slacking lately at the blog thing... Too many other things going on right now. However, Kinlee turned 2 1/2 on Wednesday! She is such a little lady now. Kinlee is SO excited to be a big sister. She is always mentioning about how "when Brightyn grows out..." She thinks that when Brightyn "grows out" that she comes out of my belly button. I figured it's probably best at this point to let her believe that's where babies come from :) I am proud to say that after easily 9 months (yes 9 months if not more) of introducing Kinlee to potty training, she is almost finished. She wears big girl undies all day every day (except for naps and bedtime. she always wakes up dry from her naps). I cannot even remember the last time she had an accident. Kinlee has quite the personality and sometimes is a little aggressive. She does not like to share, but then again I don't know of most kids this age or even older that do. Sometimes I feel like I have to constantly keep an eye on her to make sure she is not shoving any other kids around. I have noticed that some parents think their kids are so well behaved, and never do anything wrong, and I just laugh to myself. Every kid has their own personality and I am not going to punish mine for being just a little more spunky than most... I have also noticed that she plays better with older kids. Much older. Like 5 and 6 year old kids. She usually wants nothing to do with most kids her own age and I think that alot of it has to do with how advanced she is at many things (including her speech). Kinlee's favorite movie right now is Madagascar. She absolutely loves getting her "pretties" (toenails) painted, and loves to pick out what shoes and underwear she gets to wear for the day. She loves backpacks, and is quite the little collector. She is always finding weird random things that she wants in her backpack. Kinlee is a night owl. We are lucky to have her in bed and sleeping by 11 at night. The good thing is she sleeps until 9:30 in the morning. This schedule seems to work for us, so we donlt really care to much about the late nights. 35 more days until the baby comes. Yeah! Hopefully sooner. I am so excited for Kinlee to be a sister.

I did the same thing & bought some swimsuits on sale (though I only bought for Audrey since I don't know when we'll have another)! I got mine from Target & they were more expensive! 6.98 ea. Dang it. And matching outfits are the cutest!

What a sweetheart you have. She'll be such great big sister when Brightyn grows out! (that's so funny!)

I can't believe how old Kinlee is now & that soon you'll have another one! It's so crazy to think about how long we have known each other & now we have kids...time flies! She is SO cute!

I wanted those same swimsuits to match for my girls, but by the time I was on there they didn't have them in the right sizes. I did buy one for my neighbors little girl (who is due in december)!
