It's That Time Again.........

Time for another cell phone photo dump!  As much as I hate cell phone pictures, I always seem to capture some cute moments that I would otherwise miss.  Here are a few of my favorites from the past few weeks......

 

I included this one because it shows how LONG Kyndall's hair is getting!  I've been dying to have it trimmed, but Matthew keeps talking me out of it.

 

 

A few weeks ago when it was still warm outside, we spent a lot of time in the front yard.  This particular afternoon, Kyndall enjoyed watching the trash truck.......

 

It made her day when one of the trash men waved at her

 

We also enjoyed afternoon bike rides......

 

She may be girly, but she does love her trucks!

 

We love free sugar cookies at Publix!!

 

 

I had to have surgery a few weeks ago.  As I arrived for my pre-op appointment, this is the view I enjoyed from the top of the parking deck at MUSC.  It was a nice reminder to be thankful for the little things, even in the midst of trials.

Grammy and Nonie came up to help with my surgery and Grammy surprised Kyndall with this gift that she and Aunt Kelly bought for her.......

 



 

We spent the week of Halloween in Tallahassee and Kyndall dressed up as Minnie mouse, of course......

 

Dinner at Sonny's after Trunk-or-Treat

 

Looking cute to go have lunch with Grammy

 

Kyndall is in a hand-holding phase.  Everywhere she goes, she wants to hold someone's hand.  I love it!  This was on the long drive back to South Carolina after our busy week in Tallahassee.  Melts my heart!

 

When it was warm outside, we enjoyed a picnic lunch on her new table several days in a row

 

 

And played a little golf.......

 

My friend Laura gave Kyndall these blocks a few weeks ago when we were in Tallahassee.  She loves making a "house" around herself.  She's even been known to eat her dinner in her "house".  Some battles just aren't worth fighting!

 

The day of the election, I knew I would be in for long wait at the polls.  If I had to stand in line, I might as well do it with my favorite treat in hand!  And that treat was about the ONLY thing I enjoyed about that day.  That's all I'm going to say about that!!!

 

We haven't officially started the potty training process, but every now and then she shows an interest, so I put her on the potty in front of the TV.  She has yet to do anything, but at least she's getting the concept.....maybe??

 

Coloring a masterpiece on a beautiful Fall day!

 

More golf...........

 

My friend Wendy gave Kyndall this car a few weeks ago, since her son Brady had finally outgrown it.  She has practically lived in it ever since!!  Thanks, Brady!

 

Being silly in the back of Daddy's truck

 

A little blurry, but this is one of my favorite Fall outfits!  Anyone remember Rainbow Bright?

 

And this one too----I think she looks like a yummy little candy cane!

 

Kyndall has recently discovered the "front view" option on my camera phone and she loves to see herself and take pictures this way...........

 

 

Goofing............

 

Playing in her house

 

And torturing the dogs by trapping them inside........

 

She's been a lot more cuddly lately and I love it!

 

Wednesday we had a very special lunch date with a new friend from church.  As usual, I was running slightly behind schedule so I put my multitasking skills to work.  Here you have breakfast in the bathtub!  It worked, and she thought it was the best thing ever! 

 

Ready for our lunch date!

 

She loved the mini Christmas trees on the tables at Chick-Fil-A

Yesterday was cold and rainy and therefore we were stuck inside all day.  It was the perfect day to do something I had been putting off for a long time----Switching out her summer wardrobe for her new winter clothes.  This is QUITE a task and one that I always dread.  Kyndall took this opportunity to play dress up in the piles of clothes that I was sorting through.  Nothing classier than a tutu and footed PJs!

 



 

Counting her pennies last night before bed

 

Happy Friday!  Ready for a fun morning with our Moms group at the YMCA gymnastics center

 

See the "pop" (lolipop) in her hand?  This girl will do just about anything for a "pop" and I plan to take full advantage of this when it comes to taking pictures!  Don't be surprised if every picture from here on out includes a "pop"!

 

Climbing and playing at the Y with our friends

 

Kyndall and her buddy Adelaide in their "house"

After the Y this morning, we ran some errands and once again ended up at Chick-Fil-A for lunch.  This was the first time that Kyndall went into the play area by herself.  I was able to sit and eat my lunch peacefully while she played just on the other side of the glass wall.  A win-win for both of us!  Now that it's officially freezing outside, don't be surprised if you find us here a few times a week! 

 



 

She enjoyed all of the Christmas decorations that Wal-Mart had to offer.  Particularly this obnoxious singing reindeer.  She carried it around the entire time that I was shopping, and then peacefully parted with it as we left.  She even said "bye bye" and there were no tears!  Thank goodness, because as if the obnoxiousness of it wasn't enough, it also cost $20!!  Crisis averted!

 

And that's all for now!  Hopefully I'll have some slightly more exciting posts coming up, as Thanksgiving is fast approaching!
