Auntie DiDi's Wedding!

Boy did we have fun at Aunti DiDi and Uncle Mark's wedding! Kaylee was the flower girl but she was MOST excited to be able to play with her cousin Declan!! That is all she talked about during the drive down to Fort Worth and when she finally fell asleep Chad and I enjoyed the peace and quiet (for the short time) about not having to answer questions about Declan! She told us he was her favorite and rightly so after sharing her toys - that is LOVE!















She did her job as Flower Girl very well. The wedding day was busy and she did not miss a beat! Kaylee got to hang out with the girls and get her hair done for the first time. She sat on the chair very serious during this time without one squiggle or squirm - I had to double check on her a couple times because she was not talking at all and that is not normal. She was just taking in the moment and the end result was fabulous!! On her walk down the aisle, she was very determined to get each and every petal out of the basket and that she did.

















But I think she made her mark on the dance floor the most. She started doing this dance (which was the boy's dance at her recital) when the music started playing. Kaylee had a great time dancing with her cousin Mia. Chad and I were amazed that she was able to remember this dance she saw at her recital - once again - she amazed us!! She danced the night away and would have kept on going had Mommy and Daddy not spoiled her night and made her go to bed! We did learn, however, that we will NEVER again let her miss her nap and let her stay up until 11 PM all in one day! She was SO tired that she couldn't sleep and that my friends was when Mommy and Daddy's nightmare started! Lesson learned! :-)






Since Kaylee has enjoyed dancing so much, we decided to try out a dance class. After our first class, we know that now is not the time! A 2 1/2 year old that only wants to dance to Hannah Montana does not have the patience to stretch for 15 minutes before ballet and she had more fun sliding around on the floor because it was so slick! I love this picture though because she picked out her case and was super excited for class - so maybe in about 6 months you will have more formal dance pictures to see!

Haaa! I missed that routine at the reception, so glad you caught it on camera. That sweet pic of her in front of the dance school brings tears to my eyes, can't wait to hear how it goes when she is ready to pursue classes. What a little doll. Declan misses her too, he pointed at her picture tonight and tried his hardest to say her name...he'll get there soon. :) Much love to you guys.
