Kayla's been pretty manageable the past few days, but now she has a cold and cough that she caught from big K. This is cold #3 for her, so she's averaging one a month. I hope that when she starts pre-school, her built up immunity will lessen the amount of times she gets sick.



She's fascinated by bright vibrant colors.


Kristin is styling in her green bear shades. We must have bought her at least 4 pairs of sunglasses and all of them are missing/broken now. She got this pair from school when one of her classmates had a birthday party.



She's such a goofball.

If only I could get Kayla to sleep with Kristin...........I miss having a good nights sleep.



Its so great to be a baby, eat, sleep, cry, poop. Repeat


This is where I go when I don't have to take care of the two K's. As you can see, its a mess, and having a nanny/maid has only made me less inclined to clean up after myself....and its only been 2 days.


Since it was so cold today, we had the heat turned up, which made it a perfect opportunity to take naked baby shots.

Attack of the Giant Crayon

We bought this huge crayon for Kristin last year which mysteriously disappeared and suddenly showed up again today. It's a hollow tube and has a tiny slot on the tip of the crayon for depositing coins.


She thought it would be funny to try to take a swing at me with it.

After many unsuccessful attempts of trying to bat my camera with the Giant Crayon, we headed to the local park. It was a beautiful day, and the fall colors were amazing.

Kristin loves swings and can sit on one all day if we let her. Even when she's swinging she tries to hit my camera.

We have a Clifford book at home which talks about jumping in leaves and Kristin decided she wanted to be just like Clifford. She started gathering leaves..........

and made a little pile.

Leaves were everywhere and her pile was growing fast.

And after she was done with her pile, she jumped in.

Jumping wasn't enough, so she started throwing the leaves too.

She looks up, and sees where all those leaves are coming from.

Peek-a-boo!

Kayla enjoys playing peek-a-boo now. She's starting to be a lot more interactive, but she's still a little Miss Grumble.

Kristin love playing in the backyard. She'll even stand still to let me take a few photos of her.

Of course I have to promise her a cookie to get her cooperation.

Kayla, Kristin, and Chuck Chuck



Kristin has a doll she calls Chuck Chuck. When she was younger, we called the doll Chucky, after this famous doll. The name stuck, and hopefully she never finds out why.

Finally capturing some expressions.

Don't let the pictures fool you, she's still as grumpy as ever.
