Dear Kate,
Just because the holidays are over doesn't mean the fun stops. What's up, you ask? Well...
Daddy got you donuts, for starters. I mean, seriously, what screams more fun than a chocolate donut?!
And he built the trampoline you got for Christmas! Daddy's really rocking it out in the month of Jan, huh!
You got to 'sleep' in Sister's big bed (you didn't really, but you sure wanted to!).
And got a head towel! Well, actually not in this picture, but I did have to go get you one. Mimi got all the older girls one for Christmas, not really thinking you may want one, but if there is one thing I have learned with you, it's that if Sister has one, you need one! Mommy was clever enough to improvise for the time being and you were fine with it!
We've also had a couple ice cream breaks, which is always appropriate in the middle of winter...
We gave Knoxie a bath, which, well, wasn't his/our finest moment, but at least he was clean!
He just doesn't look the same does he!
And you got to dress yourself one day. The truth is, you actually were playing dress up and we needed to go get Sister from school and you were NOT taking off that dress, so, off we went!
You also got to have your first shopping spree. Billy (Sarah's daddy) got you a $20 gift card to Walgreens. This was the best present ever especially since we went after Christmas when everything was on clearance. While Sister settled for one big thing you walked away with 3 finger nail polishes, a Minnie Mouse flashlight, and Minnie Mouse bowling set, and something else. Talk about making out like a bandit!!!
You and Sister have taken a couple drives through the neighborhood...
and a couple million jumps on the trampoline...
And given Knox a couple ka-trillion hugs...
We also decided that winter would not stop us from eating our fave - WATERMELON!!!
We had a scary mask person haunt our house for a bit...
And we had some down time in the bed...
We drank hot chocolate and put puzzles together...
And even had a lemonade stand!!!!
Probably our favorite and most frequent thing we've done in January is having our nightly performance of Let It Go on the kitchen counter. You both are very good at it...
Speaking of performances, we went to see a ballet at the Franklin Theatre performed by the Nashville Ballet. It was REALLY good and you were so impressive with sitting still and by yourself the entire time! That's you front and center!
Afterwards they let the kiddos come up and perform. You were ALL about that!
We had a good time and even got to check some books out at the library!
And to wrap up January, you got to go with me to the vet for Knoxie. You got a little sidetracked though and thought maybe we were at gymnastics...
Yowzas!!! January has zipped by, no doubt!!! Fun times all around. Love you crazy girl!
