Energizer Kaylee

Tonight was a very interesting night and of course Kaylee was involved! hahaha
Kaylee swollowed a round battery out of one of the animal toys! Here's how it went;
We'd had a LONG day packing and moving today! Kaylee and I were in the kitchen chatting, I saw something shiney fall on the floor and her pick it up! I did not see her put it in her mouth though! So we are talking, I turn around for like a split second, then I see her sort of struggle to swallow, followed by a scared cry. I pick her up right away ask her if she is ok, set her on the counter and ask her what happened, what did she swallow? She just cried so I had to calm her down, finally she told me "a penny mommy a penny" I ask her again and again....I knew whatever it was went down to easy to be a penny. I had no idea honestly what else it could've been though, I yelled to Jason. Said what happened and he talked to her, as they were talking I found something on the floor......a part to a toy for the kitty that had 2 lil batteries in it ONE was missing. So off to the hospital we went! They were very quick at getting her back, seen and x-rayed...within a 1/2. Kaylee was not going to lay down for the belly x-ray, I tried everything by myself but the tech had to go get Daddy to help! We had to have this x-ray to make sure it was a battery but most importantly where is was located....that made all the difference in how to handle it! And let me tell ya a 3yr old lil girl is VERY strong and gave us a challege! We got it done though, she got several stickers, was not tramatized and witin minutes we got to see the x-ray! THANK GOD it was in her tummy and after talking with the pedi GI doc it was determined we could just wait for it to pass! So we get to sift through poo for a few days....O so much fun! lol They even gave us a copy of the xray, its very clear where it is!



UPDATE: Kaylee energizer days are over....Mon she passed it! Of course she had to go poo in the gas station, we will never be forgotten at the place! hahaha

A New Start

After 8yr we are moving to a new house....our FOREVER home! I have a range of emotions, from sooooo excited to a little sadness.
Our first house has so many memories and lots of learning in it! hahaha Its where I carried our first babies.... precious Tyler and Erin and where we mourned their loss, where we brought our princess Kaylee home to, decorated our first nursery, its where we experienced PARENTHOOD for the first time! We've grown so much as a couple here as well as individuals. We have wonderful a neighbor that will be missed so much! So many first at this cute little house. I'm nervous about how our pups/kitten will adjust this is the only home they've ever known. I know Kaylee will be fine she loves the new house as do we! We learned a lot in this house about how no small remodel is really a "small" remodel! hahaha Its been a pain sometimes but I've loved this house. In about a week we will be moving out and saying goodbye to our FIRST home together but its time to start new.....and its going to be exciting

I will miss it but our new home is WONDERFUL! It has so much character,so much wonderful potential, more room, a HUGE yard and is in the neighborhood we've been wanting to live in for sometime! Its quiet, close to the park,schools,walking and biking trails and just around the corner from Lisa and Jolie! We've bought this house knowing its where we will raise Kaylee and hopefully another lil one! This will be home forever. It may not be new nor super duper fancy but its US...it fits who we are and our likes. It took some time to close the deal but I know it was worth it.

The BIG girl bed!

This past summer I bought a cute dresser off craigslist and since then I have been dieing to get the twin bed that matched it.....and finally we did! Thanks to an awesome friend we got a really good deal at Ashley furniture for it also! Its so cute and Kaylee really loves it...she will be in this bed for a very long time! LOL

Her little toddler bed

1st Family Snowman

Finally, Kaylee's third winter and we made a snowman! She is so into making snowKaylee's(haha) playing in the snow and wanting to make the snowman! And what a huge help she was! She rolled it, carried the ball to daddy and derik and then put his eyes,nose,buttons,scarf and arms on! I must say it was one of the best snowmen I've seen or built! Super cute!

Fun in the Snow!

We've had lots of snow but its been so cold that we really haven't gotten to enjoy it! However super Kaylee still wanted to go out so of course we had to go! Jason took her sledding down the street and pulled her around the neighborhood...She loved it! That big smile on her face is just the most amazing face ever!

Merry Christmas!

This is Kaylee's face after seeing what she got...HER KITTY

And this is Emma the new addition to our family!




It has been a wonderful Christmas morning! Started our a bit rough but got much better! And our kitten surprise didn't go as planned but Kaylee LOVED her and all of her presents she received!

Kaylee woke about 11:30p christmas eve and said her belly hurt. I didn't really think much of it but knew she never says that in the middle of the night..however I tucked her back in gave her a big kiss and went back to bed! Just a bit later she came back in our room with a tummy ache again! I picked her up talked to her and tried to comfort her...within minutes she was throwing up! :( We sit up with her for a bit, Daddy rocked her, took her temp and all seemed well! No temp, she said her felt ok and we got her back to bed around 12:30! Of course in the middle of all this we are cleaning up icky,comforting her and trying to salvage christmas morning surprises! So she got back in bed with a lil water.....then about hour or less later she was up again puking.....its awful to see your lil girl do this! So we got all cleaned up, rocked and comforted the poor baby and she said she was tired! So off to bed we all went again...this time I didn't give her water though! Thankfully we made it rest of the morning with no more pukey but little sleep! However Kaylee woke about 7:30 a ray of sunshine feeling great! Thank you god!

So our plan was to get up before Kaylee,get lil kitty and put her in bed with Kaylee christmas morning however nothing reals goes as plan RIGHT! LOL Here's how it went.....
So 7am Jason and I woke up! He said you think we should get the kitten and wake Kaylee....I said not yet since she had slept well! So I changed my mind and we got up before I'd even gotten ready here came lil miss Kaylee out of her room! LOL So we got her back in there, Jason rushed to get the presents under the tree again and then had a great idea of wrapping the kitten real fast! So in the carrier she went and wrapped up and under the tree before Kaylee made it it in the living room! hahaha Daddy's good! It was the first present she opened and said I bet this is my kitty kitty! Fast start to the morning but it was wonderful!

Papa/Sheila,Mamaw/Papa,Nana/Papa,Uncle Joey,Aunt Lisa/Jolie and our awesome neighbor Derick(aka D)all came over for Christmas Breakfast! My wonderful mom cooked pretty much everything and made some kick butt sausage gravy! We followed that with a nap, then dinner at Grandpa Spurrier's and then to Nana/Papa for dinner as well! Kaylee received some wonderful gifts but most of all OUR family's had the perfect day and thats what its really about!


We had the most wonderful Christmas! We are so BLESSED!

Santa 2009

Kaylee went to talk with Santa a couple weeks ago to let him know her wish this year! She was so pumped up but once we got into Santa's house she was a bit scared and refused to sit on his lap! He was a very nice Santa and talked with her until she felt comfortable standing next to him, she let him know her wish and told him merry christmas! She ask Santa for a kitty cat and I think thomas the train stuff.......but really ALLLLL she wants is a kitten! And of course mommy,daddy and santa will be arranging that!
After she talked with the VERY sweet Santa we walked around the square and took some pics of Kaylee. Its been several years but finally Noblesville has really decorated this year and it looks beautiful, just as a remember it when I was a kid!

I just LOVE this time of year......and its SO VERY SPECIAL having our sweet girl Kaylee. Children just make the holiday!
