January in Pictures

January seemed to fly by. Besides our trip to California we were low key. We did a lot of hanging out and recovering from the holidays. Here are some pictures from January.

She is getting to be so big. And she loves to pose for the camera. She will just find my phone and say cheese.


She loves bath time


Kinley loves having Cort come over to play. She always likes to make sure he has everything that he needs but not too many of her toys. This was a day when I was watching him and she just wanted to cuddle.

Beach Lovin'

California is one of our favorite getaways. We have such a good time every time we go. Kinley has learned to love it as well. She especially loves the beach. She has no fear of it and if it knocks her over, she gets right back up and tries to go in again. We tried to get down to the beach as much as we could. It was a nice relaxing vacation. And this cold weather just makes me want to go back




Kinley loved to chase the birds

Happiest Place on Earth

In January we made a trip out to California. We decided we wanted to take Kinley to Disneyland and I am so glad that we did! She loved it and we all had a great time. I would def go back in January again; the weather was nice and not a lot of people. My mom came with us, which allowed Dusty and I to go on lots of rides as well. Kinley loved the carousel and was so mad when she had to get off. She also loved It's a Small World. We saw quite a few characters and Kinley didn't mind them when she wasn't too close to them. We also got to see the Disney Junior Play over at California Adventure and Kinley loved every minute of it. She was dancing and clapping and singing. She took one little nap during the day and lasted till late at night. It was a magical day!

Christmas Time

We had a great Christmas! It started off with us waking up and going to church. I loved it because we were able to go and really celebrate what Christmas was all about and help us focus on what it is all about. We came home and made breakfast with Dusty's new ebelskiver pan and then opened presents. My mom was here and that was fun to have Christmas morning with her. After presents, we headed up to Dusty's parents and had Christmas up there. It was fun with 3 little girls. It was a great Christmas and here are a few pictures from it.

This is my favorite picture that I took. Kinley was so excited to get Mickey and Minnie and she wanted to 'cheese' with them. She was fun opening all of her gifts.

Christmas Tree already to go on Christmas Eve
