November 9thKyla sure had a fun Halloween. The morning of, she went to Trick or Treat Street at the rec center. They had a lot of vendors there, so she received a lot of candy. Her favorite part was seeing the Lions Club Lion. She could not get enough of him. Later that day, we had a potluck dinner with our playgroup and their families. The guys took the kids Trick-or-Treating, while us ladies stayed in the house to pass out candy. All in all, it was a great day for everyone.
Over the past few weeks, we've been working on Kyla's "big girl" room. We moved all of her new furniture and bedding into what was once known as our guest bedroom. Now, it is Kyla's room. She really loves the bigger bedroom and playing in it. Her most favorite thing to do is jump on the bed. She has a harder time being put down for a nap or bedtime, but hopefully that will get easier as she gets used to her new surroundings. We can only imagine what she is going through. New room, new furniture, new set-up, etcetera. It's gotta be tough, but she is being a trooper.
Christmas cannot come soon enough. Since October, all Kyla can talk about is "Ho-Ho" - A.K.A. Santa. We are sure she will be loving life once the tree and decorations are put up. If all goes well, we can do that over Thanksgiving weekend.
Scott and I both have birthdays this month. We are starting to wonder if it is too soon to start counting backwards?? :-)
Kyla's best friend, Grace, welcomed a baby sister on November 6th. Kyla has spent a lot of time talking about the baby. She seems pretty excited for Grace and the rest of her family. Hopefully she will show as much enthusiasm for her own baby brother when he makes his appearance into our lives.
