~ Field Trip To The Dinosaur Park ~

For the month of October Tylin is learning about Dinosaurs, so her teacher arranged a fieldtrip to the Dinosaur Park. Tylin had so much fun hanging out with her class. Addi and I were able to tag along, and enjoy the fun!

~ Tylin's First Day Of Preschool ~

Tylin started her second year of Preschool Sept. 9th! She goes four days a week. She loves it so much!!! On her first day she wanted to wear my heart necklace so she wouldn't be scared starting her new preschool. I just can't believe how fast she is growing up!!! Next year she will start kindergarten. We are so lucky to be able to have the opportunity to enroll her in preschool.
Tylin has been bringing home art work and assignments everyday, so I will be posting some of those as time goes on.

This picture says it all!

~ A Little Put Put Fun ~

Mimi and Bapas took the whole family to Toad's and played some Put Put (Mini Golf), so we all could spend time together as a family before Scott, Jenna, and Olivia moved to Denver. The kids had a blast!! I can't believe that Olivia is walking already!!!
We sure are going to miss Scott, Jenna, and Olivia!!!
~ WE LOVE YOU ~

Addison LOVES to wear our shoes and walk around the house! So cute!

And of course she found a binki!!!

~ A Camping Update ~

I was over at Paul and Monica's the other night having a family dinner, and Andrea told the BEST story from their camping trip.

She took Tylin to the outhouse to go potty, and when Tylin saw that it was just a big hole she was really worried! She told Annie that she was scared that she would fall in, but Annie assured her that wouldn't happen because she was going to hold on to Ty's arms. Then she said, "I need a bigger bum like you and Mommy, and Daddy."

I nearly fell out of my chair when I heard that! It is SO Tylin!!!!

~ A New Discovery ~

Today we couldn't hear Addison making her usual noise, so Matt called for her. All I heard was, "I goin potty." in her cute little voice. So I ran to the bathroom and sure enough.....there she was on the potty trying to go. She had even put her Dora potty seat up all by herself! Also, do you notice something different about her? She doesn't have a BINKI!!!!!! She finally lost her last one two whole days ago!!!! YAY!!!! We are so excited!!! She is just growing up so fast.

***CAMPING***

Matt took the girls camping to Bridge Lake with his family. They had a blast!!! What an awesome opportunity......Grandpa and Grandma Kelly, Bapas (Paul), Auntie Annie, Uncle Pete, Aunt Jenna and Uncle Scott, were all there to share this with Matt and the girls. They went Thursday Aug 28, and came home on Saturday the 30th.

Another New Member Of The Kelly Family

We just adopted Bijou, an 18 year old Blue and Gold Macaw. She is so much fun!!! She laughes, dances, and talks all the time. She calls all food a cracker, and feels left out if you don't share your "crackers" with her. She loves to be around the family!! Whenever we leave the room she tells us "Bye-Bye", and when we come back she says "Hello".

~ At The Fair ~

We took the girls to the Weber County Fair while Tyson, Kiani, Hunter, and Savanah were visiting Utah. We all (our family, Tyson's family, and my mom) went to the fair and hung out for the day! It was such a beautiful day. All of the kids loved watching the Clydesdale horses, in their fancy get up, prancing along. It is amazing how big they are, I never realized! Towards the end of the day the wind all of a sudden picked up, and it started raining. Matt and I decided to take the girls home, and on our way out we let them ride the "race cars". They saw the ride first thing when we walked in, and had waited so patiently all day to ride.

Two New Members Of The Kelly Family

For Tylin's birthday she wanted birds, so we got her 2 cockatiels. She named the all grey one Prince Charming, and the other one she wanted to name Barbie, but Matt decided on Stormy. The girls love playing with them everyday! Stormy says "Pretty Bird" and whistles a lot. They are a great addition to our family.

Tylin's 4th Birthday

For Ty's birthday she wanted to go to Chuck-E-Cheese! So of course, she always gets what she wants!!! She is for sure a Princess! Her birthday list consisted of: birds, a squirter, and a pink scooter with flowers. And once again she got what she wanted!

We had so much fun at Chuck-E-Cheese!! He even brought out her birthday cake, and sang Happy Birthday to her. She had so much fun playing all of the games there.

I can't believe she is 4 already! She is getting so big, and smart!!

~ 24TH OF JULY ~

We had such a fun time lighting fireworks in front of our house. This year Tylin was able to help Daddy light the fireworks.

~ LaZy DaYs ~

We all swimming in Nana's pool. We had so much fun!!! Grandma Lu was able to stop by and watch the girls swim, and they were so excited to see Grandma Lu.
Tylin was able to learn to swim with just her floaties on her arms on. She would swim the length of the pool and back over and over again, all by herself! She also started going under the water with her nose plugged, and eyes closed.
Addi wanted to jump in at the deep end and swim to the shallow end and get out and start all over again.
We had an awesome day!

Addison's 2nd Birthday

Addi is 2 already!!! I can't believe how fast time goes by! I would like special times like this to slow WAY down!
For Addison's birthday, we took her to the Utah Hogle Zoo. Addi also had a couple of her cousins go with us....Jake and Jackson "The Boys" as my girls call them, Angi, and of course Nanas. We had so much fun!!! Addi rode the Carousel for the first time. She absolutely had a ball! When the ride was over she wrapped her arms and legs around the Elephant she riding, and started crying saying she wanted to still ride. We had lunch right by the Carousel so she could watch it, but we found her waiting in line to ride it again!!
Addi usually takes a nap daily, but not at the zoo. When we left she was so tired that we figured that she would fall asleep quite quickly in the car. NOPE. She was so excited that she couldn't sleep. When we got home we had to force her to lie down at about 5:30, because we had family coming over for presents, cake, and ice cream at 6:30 and we didn't want her to fussy.All in all.....we had an awesome day!

Addison's Birthday Party

After the zoo we had family come over for cake and ice cream. Of course she received so many gifts from everyone!! We are so blessed to have such a great family that loves us so much!

Tylin Cut Her And Addi's Hair!!!!

Tylin took it upon herself to cut hers and Addi's hair! She locked both of them in the bathroom and started cutting! By the time Matt was able to get the door unlocked the damage was done. Tylin cut ALL of Addi's hair. Her hair is now so short, and people think she is a boy even though we dress her in pink. Tylin's hair was very choppy. She just grabbed chunks of hair and cut. I cried for 2 days! I just couldn't believe what Tylin did.
