Staying Busy

Happy Thanksgiving

Preston and Lilly dancing... he had to dress up too!!


A couple weekends ago, I watched Preston. Lilly and Preston had a blast playing together all day! We began our morning running to the store. Later that afternoon, the kids played outside, painted, played play dough and danced to music. It's so much fun having them together. They entertain one another.
Last weekend, we had Ryan's family over for Thanksgiving. I cooked a turkey with help from my mom. It was delicious! I wasn't sure what to do, even after my mom told me. To be honest, I was kinda grossed out! But she helped and it turned out perfect! Thanks mom~ we had a yummy dinner with Ry's family. Lilly played with Jordan the entire time. She loves her! Jordan is so great with her, she entertains her for hours.
This week on Wednesday, Ryan and I went to dinner and shopping. I can't tell you the last time just the 2 of us had dinner. It was so nice! We celebrated our 5th year anniversary. On Thanksgiving, we went to my Grandmas house with the rest of my family. As always, there was plenty of conversations, lots of kids playing and tons of eating! We continued our family visit tonight at my sisters house. She made a yummy dinner for all of us. My cousin Sonia and her kids are in town, so it was a perfect excuse for all of us to get together again. Lilly had a ball playing hide n seek, dancing, running, screaming and being silly with her cousins.
We are anticipating a visit from Santa here at our house. Lilly talks about Santa everyday, sometimes several times! She is waiting to get a princess bike from him. Of course, she would also be happy with any other princess items he drops off! We decorated our Christmas tree the other day and also decorated her one for her room.
Lilly Lately: She is doing a great job potty training, she talks a lot! She sings all the time. Just tonight she sang the whole way home from my sisters house (35 minutes). She loves to color and
paint. But most of all she loves to do puzzles and read her books. Oh' and I forgot, she loves to play on my sisters IPad. You would be amazed at how well she maneuvers her fingers.
Hope you have a wonderful Thanksgiving with your family~ I am truly Thankful for my loving family and friends. I love you all!
Love,
Kelli
