Merry Christmas and lots of snow!!

I hope that everyone had a wonderful Christmas, we sure did. Kayla was the star of the show of course. She had no idea when she woke up that it was any different but when we went down stairs she said,"OH WOW!" Now trying to get her to eat breakfast after that was difficult but she got some then proceeded to explore her stocking. She got a baby doll and stroller which is now her favorite toy. She was in awe over putting it's binkie in and out and pushing it around while the rest of us opened presents. Kayla also got a nice big panda bear chair from her Uncles which she loves. After opening presents we made the trek up to Centerville to be with Graydon's family. She and her cousins had lots of fun playing and being silly.




















So this was a really white Christmas for us in South Jordan. We took Kayla outside to play and the snow banks were taller than she is!! She thought it was pretty cool and kept saying "nooooo", that would be how she says Snow.

Kayla with Santa

Well we had our ward Christmas party this morning and of course Santa came. Kayla was just fine looking at him from a distance but the second she got close, well take a look at the picture and you can tell what Kayla thought of Santa. I thought it would be fun to put the picture from last year next to this year to see how much she has grown. So Merry Christmas all!

Zoo Lights and Animal Noises

So I was really excited when we went to the Zoo on Friday night. They have pretty cool Christmas lights and Kayla loves lights and animals. So it was of course freezing cold but the wind stopped for a little bit while we were inside so it turned out to be bearable. Kayla really seemed to enjoy looking at the lights and would point out the ones she wanted to get closer to. But her favorite part of the night was the monkeys. They have this really cool part where you are at the trees level so that you are right where the monkeys are. She loved watching them run around and play. So I took the chance to teacher what monkey's say and we haven't heard much else since. She literally fell asleep making the monkey noise. It was really cute.So I got video of all the animal noises Kayla knows, there is the monkey, the elephant, the cat and she makes a fishy face too.
