Good times

It is so good having Terry home! I think it makes Kendall and I appreciate him and each other more. When he is gone it is just the two of us together all the time. It can get a bit mundane. Now that Terry is home the routine has changed a bit (he picks her up from school and usually much earlier than I do because of work) so she gets some one on one time with Daddy and she is super excited when I finally get home. Last night she heard me come in the back door and she was in the living room and screamed (she never screams) MAMA!!!!!!! and came running around the corner to give me a hug and kiss. I almost cried. I don't know if I've ever heard/seen her so excited to see me- I mean she is excited when I pick her up from school but nothing like this. It was like she hasn't seem me in days. It warmed my heart. I love that girl-crazy hair and all!

My Purse

Kendall is really into carrying a purse these days. She gets a little fanatical about it at times.

Here she is with her bag, her baby, and trying to wear my tights as a scarf....

(Yes those are stairs leading up to our bed..yes they are for our short fat dog...long story for another post)

Yesterday Daddy and Kendall went to the store and came home with some pink blocks and a glitter pink "K" purse....apparently she "HAD TO HAVE IT" according to Dad....

Notice her arm, that is how she always carries her purse, with her arm up in the air.

Here she is this morning getting ready to leave for school and trying to get her breakfast bar into her purse to take with her....love that smile:)

Bakersfield

Here are some random pics from the trip

CALM

California Animal Living Museum

While in California we went to CALM (see translation above). All the animals were rescue animals that could not be introduced into the wild. It was kinda small and you could get up and close to the animals. Once again the reptiles were the most exciting part of the attraction. There was a huge pond full of ducks that Kendall was sure to point out-DUCKS DUCKS DUCKS- she repeatedly was screaming. It is a wonder they all didn't fly away. We had a great time and Kendall got to try out her new stroller that day too.

Working on Vacation

Kendall was all work and no play while on vacation....
