All Dressed Up

Sunday was Kaylee's first full day at church. She was pretty good and slept through most of it. However, even with her being good, I've discovered something.
I love going to church.
And I love my little girl.
But putting them together is HARD!
How many months left until she goes to nursery? :)(We tried to get a good picture of her in her dress but it didn't work super great. I still think this picture is really cute!)

Park Outing

I am LOVING the nice weather now that Utah officially decided it was spring. We took Kaylee out for her 1st park adventure on Sat. This is what she thought of it:
But she did get out and play soccer with us for a while. Not sure how much she enjoyed that but don't worry, I'll get her hooked on soccer eventually :) I wish we could just spend all of our time outside playing in the sun. I can't wait for next week when Richard starts his new semester and will be done by 2:00 every day. You can bet most of our time after that will be spent outside!!

Sleepless Beauty

Last night I was thinking about (and being incredibly jealous of) Sleeping Beauty. I can't think of anything I would rather have right now than 100 years of sleep! The sad thing is I can't even blame my tiredness on Kaylee. Yes, she does get up multiple times during the night but it wouldn't be so bad if I could go back to sleep when she does. I don't know what my problem is but lately I am SO tired when I'm feeding her and have a hard time keeping my eyes open. However, as soon as I lay back down, it's like a switch goes off in my brain that tells my body it's time to wake up and I start thinking about a million different things! Richard says it's because I'm a worrisome mother and I'm thinking too much about Kaylee. If that's the case, I'm in big trouble because I'm pretty sure there is no cure for that. In the meantime, if you see Sleeping Beauty anytime soon can you please ask her if she would be willing to switch places with me for a few weeks? Thanks.

Walkin' On Sunshine

I never really liked walking- I always preferred running to get wherever I needed to go. Walking just seems like it takes so long and I swear I get more tired walking than I do running. But in the last few weeks I've realized how amazing walking is. When I'm in a bad mood, it cheers me up (gotta love those endorphins). When I feel like the walls are closing in, it allows me to escape. When I've got a lot on my mind, it lets me think things over and clear my head. When I have a little one who needs to be calmed down, walking knocks her out. When I want to be out enjoying the BEAUTIFUL weather we have today, walking lets me do it! I think my attitude about walking has done a complete 180 and I'm sure I'll be doing a TON of it this summer. Can't wait!

Crazy Sleeper

Kaylee sleeps in the most adorable ways. I think I already have more pictures of her sleeping than all of the others combined! Here are just a few of the ones I've taken when I find her hands in crazy positions.

Mourning Girl's Night

Every General Conference for the last who knows how many years my mom and sisters have gotten together for girl's night during priesthood session. We always have a blast playing games, chatting, and having our favorite dessert- Asphalt Pie. I think I looked forward to girl's night more than anyone else, I was always really excited about it. However, this year I am at home taking care of my little one who I still don't want around a lot of people. Don't get me wrong- I love being home with Kaylee. But today I'm really sad not to be out with the girls in my family. I guess Kaylee and I will just have to make our own fun girl's night :)
