Santa Santa Santa

We took Kayla to see Santa on Sunday....

It was a traumatic experience! She was so upset & SHAKING! I felt horrible! It took almost 15 minutes after leaving the Santa for her to stop shaking and realize she was okay! So needless to say we did not purchase any pictures...the ones from our camera told a good enough story. The sad part was that the Santa was a dud...he did not try to even sy anything or do anything to help the situation! If you look at the picture you can tell he is looking at the photographer like "Are we done yet??" Maybe next year!

Family

Christmas is my favorite time of the year! The past couple years Travis & I have loaded up the honda and off to San Diego we go...however this year my family is all coming out here. With Travis and I having our own home is time we have a nice Christams here. We a.re going to have a house full...my parents are coming, my sister & her two kids, my brother his girlfriend & hopefully his two kids. I am really excited that we will all get to be together. Not quite sure what we will do the whole time they are here...we are thinking a drive up north to let the kids see the snow. Anyone have any ideas...they will be greatly appreciated.

I am back.......

After a successful move back to Arizona I am finally back on this blog! We are so happy to be home & are finally getting back into the swing of things! I am back at work & Travis is currently looking for a job & watching Kayla while he does so. I cannot tell you how much Kayla has changed these last 2 months, she is no longer a baby but a little girl. She eats anything and everything I eat & has this little attitude! She is still such a joy & I am excited that in just a few months she will have a sister. I am nervous to have another as I have not forgotten the pain from having Kayla but I am excited that Kayla will have a friend and someone who looks up to her! I am making a promise that I will update this daily as I know my mom and Gpa will enjoy this! Miss you San Diego...but am glad to be home!

Preparring fo Kayla's 1st Birthday

So we have started to prepare for the big birthday party! It is on September 20th and I could not be more excited for it! We are having it at a park in our old neighborhood, so it is a middle location for everyone. I am going this Friday with my mom to get all the decorations...in case you are wondering we are doing a ladybug theme. Kayla's room in Arizona is all LADYBUGS so we have decided to keep the theme going & do her first birthday. I expect at least 50 people there or so & have decided to get a jumper for the older kids to enjoy while they are there! I feel like I am doing all this planning and Kayla will not even know what all I have done, but it is too fun to not plan it! I put a picture above of the park where it is at. It is called Dallas Park, I grew up there and thought itwould be nice to do Kayla's birthday there!

She is a busy girl!!!

Kayla is a very busy girl, every time I turn around she is into something! She gets more daring everyday! Makes me a nervous wreck! Everything I do she wants to be right there. I have been blessed to spend the last 3 months home with her, and believe me we are together all day! So I have been able to enjoy all the new things she is doing....even the bad ones!

Living in San Diego for now!

As for now the Free's are in San Diego. Travis got laid off from his job in Arizona so we took off to San Diego for a job offer, after getting here we REALLY realized what we had! So needless to say we are trying to get back as soon as possible! We miss everything there in Arizona! Kayla is such a big girl and has changed so much in 3 months, today for the first time she took her first 3 steps all by herself! I never understood when other mothers said " I am always on the go" Well now I do, I never sit except when she takes her LITTLE naps and to think I only have ONE child!



I am new at this blog thing so bear with me if I make mistakes!
