Deanna and Connor come to visit!

We had the best time with D and Connor! We will miss them so much! The kids had so much fun. Here are a few pics from the weekend.

Baby Belly

Last night Kendall put her baby up her shirt and told me she looks like me. So adorable! The baby even got a kiss. This was a very rare moment caught on tape!

House is finished!

Our final project is complete. Kendall now has her own bathroom. It took some convincing that this is not a boys bathroom just because it is blue. Her color preference is purple or pink if it is to be a girls bathroom. I think we have made it past that now and we are onto the next conversation. The conversation about her possibly being a big sister to a boy. She cannot accept the fact that she might have a brother. She insists the baby must be a girl. Who knows...maybe she knows something we don't.

More tumbletots

Kendall finished her last day of tumbletots last week. Here are some pics from her last class.
The chalk is very popular for some reason. Bars are her fav!

Yes, that is kendall at the very far left. She must be the first person to the other side of the mat, although, winning is by no means the objective here. We can already see her competitive spririt coming out strong!

Costa Rica!

Jay and I just got back from an amazing trip to Costa Rica. We enjoyed the sunshine and relaxation in paradise. Perfect timing as we only have 8 weeks until baby is due to arrive! Check out the 450 lb marlin Jay got to help catch!

Tumbletots

Kendall had her first Tumbletots class on monday. She looked fabulous in her pink leotard! Here she is front and center listening to directions from coach.

Ready for her sticker!

Chrismas in Crystal Lake

We had a wonderful Christmas in CL with Mommy's family! Thank you everyone for all of our gifts!

Kiss for Auntie Erin! Thank you for my princess dress up clothes!

oops....duplicate

Kendall luvs donkey!

Kendall has renamed Uncle Patrick and Auntie Erin's doggy "donkey". This could be because Ruby is gigantic or maybe because her favorite movie is Shrek. Ruby is so good to Kendall considering Kendall thinks Ruby is a horse to ride and a princess to dress up!

Yes, Ruby wears a scarf!

Schindler Family Christmas

Kendall really enjoyed this Christmas. She really got the present thing this year! Thank you everyone for all of her wonderful gifts! Here are some pics from our Christmas celebration with Grandpa and Grandma Schindler and Uncle Kent and Amanda. Reading with Uncle Kent
She loves helping everyone open their gifts!

More Snow!

We took advantage of the newly fallen snow and the above zero temperature on Saturday morning and took Kendall sledding.
A little practice before the big hill.

Christmas with Friends

We had a little pizza party with our friends. These guys play together so nicely these days!

Ethan, Sophie, Kendall and Ben

Bye Bye Crib!

Hello Big Girl Bed!

Bandaids cure everything!

Kendall's poor little ears can't seem to keep out infection. The good thing is that bandaids make it feel better. (she is very proud of her new princess shirt)

Little Helper

Kendall helped Jay pick up all of the leaves in the yard yesterday and then jumped in the big pile. Sadly, next time it will be a probably be a pile of snow!
