Our little singer serenades us with Jingle Bells

Merry Christmas!!

Santa came and boy I wish he wouldn't have! Why, because Kellyn wanted nothing to do with the remainder of her presents that needed to be unwrapped. She told us to unwrap them! haha!

As you can see in this pic..she was not feeling 100%. That played a major role in the lack of present enthusiasm!

She was overjoyed when she realized Santa brought her muffins. "muffins" aka Reese Cups!

Ariane helping her open her gifts because Kellyn didn't want to.

The best part of Christmas for Kellyn was getting a chance to snuggle up to Fifi. You can see that Fifi is wanting to run!!! Fifi is NOT a fan of Kellyns..poor Kellyn.

Sissy helping Kellyn put together her Lego playhouse.

Ta Da...it's done!

An adorable picture of our Kbell! Ariane always takes the cutest pics of her!

Sissy attacking Kbell with salad tongs........

and Kellyn retaliates!!

Kellyn getting ready to attack me because I am taking too many pictures!

She decides to just laugh and roar at me :-)

Christmas dessert!!! Kellyn thoroughly enjoyed her little drumstick!

Christmas Eve

Ariane was unable to attend Christmas at Mammaw and Grandaddy's so we brought her gifts back with us for her to open on Christmas Eve night. My parents (Papa and Dede) sent Kellyn and Ariane their gifts because they were unable to come for Christmas. So we had a night of opening gifts from grandparents. They both had a wonderful time and helped each other open their gifts.

Christmas Cookies

I am sorry for all the collages, however, it would take me hours to upload all these pictures, so I decided to cheat.

We started a Christmas tradition this year by making cookies on Christmas eve. Ariane was super patient with Kellyn. She truly is a wonderful big sis to Kellyn! Kellyn loved eating the icing the most. Ariane of course did the best job at decorating. I had a little turkey helping me so mine weren't so beautiful. We let Kellyn pick out two cookies for Santa and boy they were so good, Sissy and I barely left a bite for Santa!

Christmas at Mammaw and Grandaddy's

We had such a wonderful time with Mammaw and Grandaddy! Mammaw is one of the greatest cooks on earth. I had to post a picture above of the massive spread. Both Kellyn and I loved the mashed potatoes the most. Kellyn was super spoiled with gifts as always. Sweet brother Brian and his precious girlfriend Whitney came by to see us and Kellyn of course had a big time. She loves them so much!

My special gifts

My very first ornaments created by my little angel Kellyn! Oh these have to be my favorite Christmas gifts!

Aunt Christy's Visit

Oh we sure do miss Aunty Christy! What fun Kellyn had with her iphone :-) Christy brought footed pj's and so we had to have a photo session!

Thanksgiving

Kellyn laying on Papa and Dede's bed. She was so excited to get to lay on their bed and watch t.v.

Kellyn with my SWEET PAPA! My Nanny and Papa have my heart...that's for sure! Kellyn loved them so much!

My precious Nanny! She is English and has been in the states for over 50 years and still has her English accent...I just love it!

MMMM...peanut butter pie filling. I was jealous that Kellyn got to lick the spatula.

Kellyn's in pure heaven with her peanut butter overload.

Papa, Dede and sweet Kellyn. Our drive to Illiniois was about 9-9.5 hours long. I bet we heard Papa and Dede's name at least 1000 times before we arrived. She couldn't wait!

Cheese!!!!!!!

My precious cousin Colten. He is a true angel. Kellyn just loves him and followed him everywhere.

Can you tell my poor brother Denny is praying that the Barbie laptop would die? He couldn't escape Kellyn's demand to have Uncle Denny play with her.

Random Nov pics of Kellyn Cooper

Daddy trying to nap and Kellyn not letting him. I love her smile. She is super excited to be laying with Daddy.

Kellyn playing dress up. I just loved this skirt until I found out that it sheds little glitter pieces everywhere! I tried to bribe her to take it off.

Even her doggie Isabella played dress up.

Kellyn's smile was from the realization that she had pockets on her shirt. She LOVES pockets. She walked around that morning telling Daddy and I "I got pockets".

She loves to look in the mirror and say that she looks beautiful. It's hilarious!

hmmmm, what shall I do next to terrorize Mommy?

Maybe I will just put up my feet and relax. Mommy needs a break :-)

November 5-Kellyn's 1st professional hair cut

After two years of me trimming her hair here and there, it was time for me to let a professional do it! Kellyn was such a good girl!

The sucker helped occupy her, however, not smart with little hairs flying all over. I had to rinse the sucker several times!

I think Kellyn really enjoyed being pampered. Such a woman :-)

Final product! I have not once duplicated this style. I am horrible. I try..but it never looks like this!
