Tony and Jayme Dee & Family: Lots of fun!!

Wow, I have a lot to get caught up on. It has been about a week and a half since I've posted pictures and there is a lot to update on! Hold on to your computer!!

About a week and a half ago, we went up for a sleepover at Camp Creech (aka Aunt Di and Uncle Rick's). Tony was doing an audit in the area so it just made sense to have a sleepover with Aunt Di, Uncle Rick and the doggies. Aunt Di and Kenna decided to make chocolate chip pancakes for breakfast.... MMMMMM

Our mini vacation had an.. interesting.... end. I began having problems with my contacts/eyes and Aunt Di had some pain in her ribs from coughing so we both ended up needing to go to the doctor. But we still had lots of fun!

The next day Lori, Katherine and I (both from work) had a mini retreat to plan for the upcoming year. We got a great deal accomplished during the day! The fun part was that we were able to bring the girls with us- Izzy and Delaney!

I promise the opposite colors (Izzy in purple with her pink Bumbo and Delaney in pink with her purple bumbo) were not planned, but the girlies sure looked adorable! Izzy was born 4 days before Delaney so we are pretty sure they are going to be good friends!

I love this picture how they are staring at eachother!

Last weekend a group of nurses from the NICU and their daughters/granddaughters went out for a little girls day. We bought tickets to see the Sleeping Beauty ballet at the Scottish Rite. Kenna knows the story of Sleeping Beauty VERY well, and let me just say that it wasn't a Disney production. We took Caroline and Taylor for Caroline's birthday. The girls were mesmerized by the beautiful dresses, dancing and music, however 2 hours was a bit too much for Kenna to handle.

Besides the priceless look Kenna had on her face when she first saw the ballerina, actually MEETING one of them was probably the highlight of Kenna's night. She LOVED being right next to a real ballerina! It looks like ballet classes may be something in the near future for us!

Last Sunday we had our Thanksgiving at the Knafel house. Mom wrapped the kids' pieces to their nativity sets and used them as props for our picture taking (the kids did get to open them up later!)

I think our pictures turned out pretty good for having to fight with the kids to keep them from opening the presents!

We even got a good family picture!

For Thanksgiving day, we went to Ohio to see Tony's family. The girls were perfect in the car on the way there. Delaney MAYBE cried for a total of 3 minutes for the entire 3 hour drive. We had rigged up the small TV in the back seat to Kenna could watch movies (which she loved)

Our first night at Grandma Dee's house, Delaney discovered her feet. And the fact that they can reach her mouth! Ha ha

Our first Thanksgiving in Ohio was at Tony's Aunt Reeny's house for lunch, then we went to his Aunt Amy's house for dinner. At Amy's house there was another baby. She and Delaney had fun staring at each other!

On our way home, we made a pit stop at the outlet mall. While I fed Delaney, Daddy and Kenna managed to find her a new ballerina skirt and a pair of wings. Of course Kenna had to try them on when we got home. She then found the program from the ballet and was telling me that she wanted to look like the ballerina in the book.
