A Fun Filled Day

Yesterday we had an eventful day. It was cold, but with Christmas right around the corner we decided to venture out into the winter weather and finish our Christmas shopping and grocery shopping. It took much of the day, but I'm glad we did it, as now I can relax knowing that everything is ready for the holidays. What a great feeling!!

A couple pics of Kaelyn before we left to shop and venture the cold

The rest of the evening we enjoyed our time spent at home with each other. Kaelyn surprised us by beginning to say "Ella". We are dogsitting "Ella" for a few days, and Kaelyn caught onto her name. She now says "Ella" or "Lala" whenever she sees here. It's too cute. She's quite the talker and seems to learn a new word every week. It's fun to see her learning and understanding the world around her. :) As any parent knows...it's not always easy to catch a young child doing something on video...so we were excited when we finally caught her doing it and had it on film. She says it three times in the video...the last one being the clearest. Most times her word for kittys and puppies is "pukitty" (a mix between the two words) so that's the other word she's saying in the video.
