A Bunny Riding A Horse?














With Ethan in school Kaylan and I get to spend a lot of quality one on one time. This night we got out some face paint and made Kaylan into a bunny. She loved it so much that she wants to be made into different animals. So soon to come will be Kaylan the Kitty!

Twinkle Twinkle Little Star!

One of Kaylan's favorite things to do is to play the piano. We have one of those pianos that plays by itself so she loves to sit and pretend she is playing it. Lately she will sit and sing Twinkle Twinkle Little Star all the while pretending to play the piano. She also likes to change the lyrics. Example "twinkle twinkle little star how I wonder what you are about". I have to say that it is about the cutest thing on the block!!!

Pretty Ballerina!



Kaylan started a dance class this last week. Since then she has been going around the house praticing her "tippy toes". It is so cute!

All Made Up!

Whenever Kaylan sees me put on my makeup she wants some on too. So I finally gave in and made her "all pretty". Now she thinks she can sneak into my makeup bag whenever she wants. Oh well I guess Monkey see, Monkey do.


Making Funny Faces!





Playing at the Lake!

Volcano Cake!

Kaylan always begs to help me in the kitchen. I think it is because of moments like this where she gets to lick the spoon after making a cake. This paticular day we were making a Volcano Cake. It is really fun and extremely easy (10 min. start to finish). You actually bake it in the microwave. If you are interested the recipe is below. We had fun making it as well as eating it.

Volcano Cake

*Box chocolate cake mix
*Tub of chocolate frosting (not whipped)
Spray glass bowl and mix cake mix as directed. Put the jar of frosting in the middle of the cake mix. Microwave for 8-81/2 minutes on high. When done dump cake out of bowl upside down onto a cookie sheet. It will make a volcano!!! Eat right of way with ice cream. Also very yummy with cherry chip cake and cherry chip frosting.




My Little Fish


Kaylan has had a blast this summer swimming.
She is quite the little fish. Below she is at swim lessons with Miss Carolyn. I can tell Kaylan has missed swim since it ended. The other day she was laying down in the tub and I heard her saying "chin down, big arms, big kicks". Apparently the tub works just as well as the pool. Well at least she is praticing in the off season. :)
