Brushing Teeth

Kelsey enjoys brushing her teeth every night.  The first routine was to put her robe on after bath time and then to sit on the sink and brush her teeth.  She's so into her robe now that she puts it on every night before bed even if she has a bath or not.  It's crazy how kids get into a specific routine. 

Visits

Alright, we finally enter November pictures. Kelsey got the oppportunities to visit with Aunt Jari and godmommy Meghan and goddaddy Dan.  Aunt Jari was at Grandma's house and a lunch date at Red Robin Meghan and Dan.  Kelsey is great to take to restaurants.  We didn't really take her much whens he was a baby, but now she is a champ and loves "going out to dinner." 

Hurricane Sandy

On October 29th and 30th Hurricane Sandy came to visit the East Coast.  I did not have school those days and Mark stayed home for a day and a half.  Kelsey and I had pajama days and enjoyed our time together.  Luckily we did not lose power and stayed safe. 

This is Kelsey modeling her coat Grandma made her. She absolutely loves it and only wants to wear this coat at all times.  Thanks Grandma!!!

First Hair Cut

Yesterday, Kelsey had a playdate with her friend Ben, 3 1/2, at MyGym.  It's an indoor Gym for kids.  We signed Kelsey up for classes so she has a chance to be with other kids in a routine class.  They just opened and had a free open house for two weeks.  Kelsey went so many times the workers already know her name.  After lunch with Ben and Sean we went to get Kelsey's first hair cut.  She was very patient and sat still the whole time.  We had been talking to her about it for a couple of weeks so she knew what to expect.  Its' a cute little bob haircut that will help her hair grow straight. 

Ben and Kelsey loved the ball pit.

Kelsey loves her new haircut!

 

Carving Pumpkins

One day I'll catch up on my blogging.  On Oct. 27th we babysat my teammates 3 kids for a few hours.  I've known these kids for 7 years and they are wonderful!  Kailyn, 12, Emily 10, and Luke 5 almost 6.  They had a great time playing with Kelsey and the Wii. :-)  The next day we went to the annual Farley Pumpkin Carving.  Jack, 17 months was an adorable dragon.  Kelsey and Jack played well together.  Did I mention this was the Sunday before the hurricane came.   Good times!

Chuck E Cheese

My school had a fundraiser at Chuck E. Cheese on Oct. 18th.  We had lots of people come and help out my school:  Aunt Jenelle, Cousin Hazel, Aunt Karlee, Grandma, Grandpa, and Mark.  Kelsey had a blast playing the games and riding some rides. Thank you all for making the night a success!

Leaves!

Kelsey came outside with us on Oct. 13th while Mark and I raked leaves. She is wearing a hat Grandma made her and playing with her lawn mower from Aunt Melissa.  She can go up and down our playground in the backyard by herself and loves the slide! 

If you like the hat, Grandma makes them for $10 in all different colors, pink, blue, and purple.  Let me know if you are interested.
