I cannot believe our Kaylee bug is 10 years old!! 2 WHOLE HANDS, double digits, a decade, a tween, wow hard believe she is already 10! Kaylee is such a blessing to our family! She has been a Daddy's girl from the very start! When she was a baby as soon as Daddy got home from work he would pick her up and they would either play or nap in the chair till supper. She has always said she was not getting married, she was just going to live with her Daddy forever! We will see what her thoughts are on that in about 6 or 7 years! Kaylee is a very nurturing person and is a GREAT big sister! She has always tended to baby Braden. Although they do their fair share of fighting, she is usually the first to reassure him it's ok or console him when he is in trouble! (Makes is quite hard on me!) She has loved both him and Kelsee from the very beginning....I just love to watch her with Kelsee and used to her with Braden too. Even though she was not quite 2 when he was born, she grew up VERY quickly and was great with him.
Kaylee is quite mature for her age. She is very somber most of the time. She does NOT like the attention on her, she does not like to be in front of people (even quit dance simply because she would not do recital!), she likes to be the fly on the wall (has to KNOW everything!), she is very reserved and is very much a thinker! When Kaylee enters a place she is not familiar with she will sit back and observe until she is comfortable with the place before she will even talk sometimes. She does not like to approach something new. Always has to know what is coming next! Kaylee is very much a "do-er", she does not like to stay at home and she does not like to just do nothing.
Our family could not ask for a better oldest child. She is such a great help to both me and the other 2 kids. She absolutely ADORES her baby sister and is very good with kids. My prediction on Miss Kaylee is she will do something in life that has to do with nurturing and children (a nurse or a teacher). Kaylee is also very athletic. She LOVES to play softball, but also plays basketball and tumbles too. She is very much a girlie girl in her clothes and accessories, but not so much in her actions or hobbies. She will do anything Daddy is doing and wants to be VERY much a part of it. She enjoys going with him to the farm and messing with her goat , Snicker.
It is hard to believe it has been 10 years since God changed our lives forever! Dale and I both LOVE being parents. Having Kaylee definitely changed my life and my personality. At one time I honestly did not want children and the minute I saw Kaylee's face I wanted 100 more! (Don't worry we are not going to have 100!)
This year Kaylee's birthday celebration is being done in stages. She wanted to go to Stillwater to eat at Texas Roadhouse so since they were out of school Monday we went then. Nana was able to join us and Ethan and his girlfriend Katy met us there too. She had a great time and actually shocked me that she wanted to have them "sing" to her and sit on the saddle! On her actual birthday it started with her traditional birthday breakfast and Mommy bringing her McDonalds for lunch then dinner of her choice with our friends over. We are doing her party this year with her friend Kaitlyn so we are going to do it in a few weeks.
This pic was taken before school on her birthday morning. She was showing off one of her presents. Her new Toms shoes! She is just so beautiful (if I do say so myself!) I just can't believe it!

Birthday dinner at Texas Roadhouse. She wanted a pic of her and Kelsee on the saddle!
Her birthday breakfast. She could not sleep the night before so she was GRUMPY first thing that morning. She chose sausage and biscuits for her breakfast.
Her party at school. She wanted zebra and cheetah print cookies from Kathy Tuma. They are SO yummy but I didn't even get one!!! We also made coke/root beer/grape floats....they loved that! Kaylee actually enjoyed having the class sing to her and then her teacher does 10 hugs instead of spankings! LOL!
Kaylee chose to have hamburgers at home on her actual birthday. We invited our friends the Spragues and the Felbers over to join us. She got to open her big present from us while they were here and also got one from them too. We got her a new camera! (But it was used and has to go back! Has many dings and scratches, had pics on it and the screen is messed up....UGH!) She also got an iTunes card and a cute cup from the Felbers.
Kaylee is not a big cake eater, but she loves cookie cake! Isn't it cute!Well there will be more birthday pics later when we do Kaylee and Kaitlyn's party, but for now that is all I have. I still cannot believe our "bug" is 10 years old! I still remember her running around here as a lil toddler...she was so funny! She had the deepest voice and was always so serious! She would say "Mommy, Baden (no R!) needs to have a nap now!" or whatever else she thought he needed at the time! Makes me very sad to think about what all we have put behind us already in her lifetime, but then also very excited about what we have still to come!
Kaylee Rae we love you very much and look forward to many more wonderful years watching you grow up!
Happy 10th Birthday BUG!!
