Happy Little Family

Austin Family 2010

We have an announcement to make....

Alright...We are NOT having another baby.  

BUT, we are the proud parents of a newly walking one!

Kinley took her first 2 steps tonight.  She stood up on one of her toys and Nick said, "Come here Kinley."  little did he know she would come.....taking her 2 first steps!

(We didn't get the FIRST steps on video, but these are her second ones) 

We are in trouble now. :)

Yay, Kinley!

We got the bug

We have caught it.... 

THE bug.

Its BIG, its BAD, and its BACK! 

Just like every year around this time, our friend, the common cold/flu bug is here for a visit.

Nick & Kinley have both been down with it.  I guess this is another first though....Kinley's 1st fever.....just not a fun first, poor girl.  Anyone who knows anything about this little girl know that she isnt capable of holding still for more than...oh, about a quarter if a second. :)  (Lover for it!)   For the last week all she has wanted it to lay on the couch with me and watch Micky Mouse Club House.  While I am enjoying the cuddle time, I wish she felt 100% better.  

 Kinley has been chewing on Nick's badge from work a lot the past few days.  Just a cute picture.

Hope they get feeling better soon!

Its Taking SERIOUS effort on my part to NOT decorate for Christmas before Thanksgiving!

A Little Lovin'

2 years ago for valentines day Nick gave me a stuffed monkey from build a bear. The Monkey has a little voice box that he recorded his voice onto saying "I love you kiddo" (Kiddo: Something he used to always call me when we were dating).  Well, I am afraid I have lost the possession of that monkey to my little monkey who just cant stop giving it kisses. :)

Yay!

I don't even know what to say...

Kinley has climbed over people, and up people, but trying to climb out of her pack and play using her bumbo....this is new....

 (Sorry for cell phone picture quality, but I just grabbed the closest thing to me to get a picture.)

Nap time is the best time to stretch

I know babies are flexible, but this cant be a comfortable position to sleep in for anyone!

Yes those are her toes up by her ears....
