10 YEARS OLD!!!!

Another year has gone so fast! I now have a child in double digits. My sweet Kylee is 10 years old! I couldn't be more thankful that I have my Kylee in my life! She is such a special girl! She's so kind and giving and loving and helpful. I could go on and on. Yes she is a growing girl and has an attitude sometimes, but not very much considering. She LOVES to read and I love reading with her. She does so good in school, and loves playing with her sisters and brother. She's on that edge of being grown up, but still wanting to play and be little. I love it.

Usually she is helping without being asked, or reminding me to do good things, like have prayers and read scriptures together, or have Family Home evening. She loves to do the lesson as much as she can. She is glad to have her own room, but is still likes being with people better. She has someone go with her if she needs to go upstairs alone and had Logan go with her in the garage to get something the other day. I remember being the same way till after I got married!! I love that she is almost as big as me, and can share shoes with me.

She loves Activity Days and is so excited for the Spotnite they are doing this Sunday. Summer is turning 8 this year so she will be introduced at the Spotnite and Kylee is so excited that she will be coming to Activity Days in September.
She had a fun Birthday Day yesterday (I hope ;) I made her a fun breakfast, something I don't usually do on Sunday's since church is at 9. They sang to her in primary and she got treats ;) She got to watch movie's she wanted and Grandma came to celebrate. Grandma gave her this cute dress and white dressy shirt. She loves it! She needed new Sunday clothes. When Jenna woke up she got to open her presents and I think she loved them. She got a snuggy type blanket with Tinkerbell on it, and another Diary of a Wimpy kid book. She was so excited about the book. And she got some new earrings and a bracelets. She loves jewelry. She picked Spaghetti for dinner and picked a chocolate cake with blue cream cheese frosting ;) I added green dots cause she likes green and polka dots. Thanks to Grandma it got frosted good. I'm still not so good at frosting cakes ;)
Friday will be her friend party, and she is so excited!!! She has had the night planned for a month or two. Games, pizza, movie's etc. I'll have pictures of that later;)


Of course some pics of Jenna too. Another thing I'm loving about Kylee growing up is leaving her with the kids for short amounts of time when I'm still somewhere in town. She is so responsible. I feel more comfortable with her home than with some babysitters I've had! Jer put the kids to bed on Thursday while I was at a meeting and went to play basketball before I got home. So Kylee stayed up in the living room till I got home. I then sent her up to bed just to have her come down again because a little someone was in her bed! It was so cute! Kylee's bed is really big and Jenna has to climb up the end like a latter to get on. She got out of bed, climbed in Kylee's bed and tucked herself in. What a cutie!

She LOVES grapes and will stick them in her cheeks and tell me she's a chipmunk :) (BTW, there aren't any in her cheeks in this picture. Those are just her chunky cheeks ;)
