First Skinned Knee

Poor little Kaylee (finally - not that we were cheering it on, or anything...) got her first skinned knee the other day. I'm sure that it won't be the last, though. She cried pretty good but was OK when we told her she could get a band-aid on it. Silly girl! Here she is pointing it out...

See! Everything's OK, now.

The skinned knee, in all its glory!

Kaylee and the next-door neighbor, Veronica, playing one day.

Kaylee wanted to play dress up the other day. Doesn't she look cute!?!

The princess driving in her car...

Movie Star!

Kaylee got into mommy's makeup the other day too. She did a pretty good job, don't you think? ;-)

She found a little rolly-polly the other day to play with too...

The start of this video is candid. Holly found Kaylee sitting in her chair reading a story to her little bear. Listen to all she says - it's hilarious! Cute little girl she is!

Baby Thomson #2 is on the way!

We have some good news...baby Thomson #2 is in the oven!!! Yea!!!

Due date is Nov 1st and all is well so far. Holly hasn't had too much nausea - just tired (who knows if that's from being pregnant or from chasing Kaylee around all day - or both). We're very excited to grow our family! Even though we've been through it once before, it's still so amazing!

Will baby Thomson #2 be a boy or girl?

Kaylee and Addi!

Last weekend Jared's brother, his wife Jami and their 3 month-old daughter Addi came down to visit good ole SoCal (Jason had a buddy getting married). It was SO much fun having them here! And Kaylee LOVES little Addi (and all babies, for that matter). It was so fun watching them together.

Here they are chillin on the couch together.

Kaylee loved giving Addi kisses!

While Jason and Jami were in the temple, we got to watch Addi. Or I guess it turned out that Jared watched Addi and Holly watched Kaylee. Who had the busier morning?

Kaylee getting her hands wet in the water (New Port Beach Temple).

She loves her new Dora sunglasses...

What a ham!

She was taking in a big breath before she smelled this flower...she's not trying to eat it.

We don't know when the next time we'll see Jason, Jami and Addi, but we sure had fun with them and we wish them well in Houston!

Easter Dress[es]!!!

Sorry it took us so long to post Easter pictures!!! Life's crazy with a (very active) two-year-old!

Well it probably comes as no surprise that Kaylee is very taken care of when it comes to her wardrobe. Being the first grandchild on both sides of the family certainly has its advantages. Hahaha...

Here is Kaylee in an Easter dress from her Grandpops and Mimi...

And here she is in the Easter dress from Gma Niecee and Gpa D...

Thanks for the beautiful dresses!!!

Fun times at the park...

These pics were from a while ago, but we wanted to put them up anyway. Kaylee LOVES going to the park! It was a lot of fun having her cousin Tyler there too.

Look at that grin! Ya think she's having fun?!?

She borrowed Tyler's sun glasses...

This is a just random cute pic of her in a new outfit...

Kaylee is Two!

Kaylee is two years old!!! Who can believe it?!? We certainly can't. She's learning and growing so much every day it's crazy. Well we had a fun 'Elmo' party for Kaylee on April 4th. Her Auntie Kelly made an awesome Elmo cake for her (thanks again!) and she loved it. We had a wonderful time with family and all enjoyed seeing Kaylee be Kaylee. Here are a few pics...

Blowing out her two candles on her Elmo cake.

Can you believe that Kelly made this Elmo cake?!? It turned out great!

Kaylee enjoyed eating it too! ;-)

She got some markers to color with from her Grandma Niecee...

And she loved the 'dress up' box that she got from gramma...

And the horsey...

But her favorite gift was the Little Tikes Bouncin' Buggy car that she got from Mommy and Daddy! You should have seen her face when she first saw it!

This picture was on Facebook and a friend commented about how they could see something similar happening in about 14 years - cute girl, new car, shopping etc...we prefer not to think about that right now!!!

One happy little two year old!

Here is a video of Kaylee enjoying her new car...

Here's another little video of Kaylee. Part of it's from after our vacation. The other part is from her birthday party. But listen to how she says 'snow'. It's so cute!

Utah Trip

We got to go to Utah March 26-31 to visit family and participate in Kaylee's cousin Addison's baby blessing. It was SO much FUN! We barely survived the airplane flight with an almost two year old bouncing off the walls. 35 degree weather and snow flurries greeted us when we got off the plane...Kaylee learned how to say 'snow' very quickly. But we had a great time and it was WONDERFUL seeing family.

Check out the sweet zoom on our camera!

Holly and Kaylee freezing their cute little patooties off! Kaylee's like, "Mommy! Why is it so cold? I've never felt that before (being a California girl...)!"

The sun (and the snow) was so bright!

Once she touched the snow, she wasn't so sure that she liked it...

Here's Kaylee's cousin, Addison! She's such an adorable little girl (kind of like one that we know very well). It was so much fun seeing Kaylee with her. She LOVES babies...

She kept trying to 'help' cousin Addi...

And she gave her lots of kisses!

Kaylee found this car at the little playground where Jason and Jami (Addi's parents) live. She LOVED it!

Uncle Twinkie even pushed her around on this bike...

We went to Jared's aunt's house too and Kaylee enjoyed playing dress-up...
