August Trip to SC

We have had a great time in Columbia so far. We are so happy to see everyone! Kylie has been having a good time getting spoiled by the grandparents! GiGi and Ted gave Kylie a tricycle.

She wanted Mickey to ride in the back.

MiMi has been enjoying some quality time with both grandbabies!

This is cousin Taylor. She has grown so much! Taylor loves to watch Kylie play!

Happy 2nd Birthday Kylie!

Kylie turned 2 on August 16th! At the last minute we made plans to be in Columbia for her birthday. We had a small party for her on her actual birthday and we will be having a Strawberry Shortcake party for her later this month with some of Kylie's friends. She had a great day!Smile birthday girl!

Yum! Cookie cake!

Kylie is wasting no time eating the cake.

The cake was so good!

The Wilson Clan Visits!

All of us in front of the Ohio River and the Cincinnati skyline.

We are so glad you came to see us GiGi, Syb, Taylor and Todd!

Cincinnati Reds Game

We took Kylie to the Great American Ball Park to see the Cincinnati Reds play. She did great and sat through 7 innings of the game! It of course helped that GiGi, Syb, Todd and Taylor were in town to visit and we all took turns entertaining her. We all had a great time!Us in front of the ball park.

Ready for the party!

Kylie is ready for her party! In the video she says she's having a "Strawberry party" meaning Strawberry Shortcake and she says how old she is. She's very excited about her birthday.

Two Year Photo Session

We had Kylie's pictures taken this weekend. She did great even with the picture place being very behind and us having to wait 3 hours from start to finish to get these photos! I can't believe she's almost 2! She's growing so fast!

It's Hot!

It has been pretty hot here lately. Kylie and I have enjoyed going to the pool a lot during the week and Daddy comes with us on the weekends. She has been doing really well moving around in the water. She loves to splash, kick and play with her toys! Kylie is taking time out from pool fun for a snack.

Kylie loves to play with watering cans in the pool.

This is Kylie's friend Hannah. Hannah is 2 and a half.

Hello All!

Kylie is a soccer star! The next Mia Hamm!

CHEESE!

Kylie loves her Dora hat!

Kylie and Mommy before church.

Kylie said she was drawing Baby Jaguar which is the jaguar to the left of the picture. I thought she did pretty good making his spots!

Dress Up

Kylie has been enjoying playing dress up with some of Mommy's things. She loves hats, jewelry, shoes and socks!
She looks like she's saying "Mom stop taking pictures of me!"

MiMi & PaPa Visit!

MiMi & PaPa came to visit July 4th weekend. We all had so much fun. We saw fireworks on Friday night. Kylie really liked them. Saturday night we went to The Montgomery Inn. The restaurant is famous for their ribs and it was so good! Below is a picture of Kylie with the pig in front of the restaurant. After our meal we went walking at Newport on the Levy which has a lot of shops and is beside the Ohio River. We then went to the famous Graeter's ice cream. They have the absolute best ice cream ever! We are so glad you came to see us MiMi & PaPa. We will see you again soon!

Kylie Counts To 10!

Daddy's Little Helper

After Daddy had finished mowing the grass, Kylie wanted to "pretend mow" the grass too. She was very interested in the lawn mower and watched Chris the whole time. This is our new lawn mower...we had to purchase another one because our old one would not cut through the grass since the grass here is so thick!

I Love My Animals!

The Pool

Kylie has been doing better at the pool. She seemed excited to go today and enjoyed sitting on the first step in the baby pool and playing with her toys. We're going to try and take her every weekend if possible to build her confidence back up with the water. Kylie models her itsy bitsy teeny weeny yellow polka dot bikini.

She enjoyed playing with her fish and shark toy.

The big pool.

My Sandbox

I played in my sandbox for the first time yesterday. I had such a good time. I loved throwing the sand up in the air and letting it fall in my hair. I got very dirty and needed a bath afterwards. Mommy had a good time watching me.

Wee Boat!

Do you like my Strawberry Shortcake bathing suit?

Look, I've hooked Daddy like he's a fish!

Splashing Daddy!

I had fun riding with Daddy on the wave runner!

I kept saying "Wee Boat!"
