~Crib-Toddler bed~

 Well we finally did it! We changed Kimberly's crib over to a toddler bed. She has always been good and never tried to climb out. She usually just lays there until you come into the room. I was wondering how this would go. The first night was pretty bad but she was a little cranky so I think it was a mixture of a few things, that made it go worse than usual. It has been a couple weeks and for the most part she has done well. Fights a little at bed time but usually doesn't get up. (just gets upset) And nap time has been even better. Some days she will tell us she is tired and so we will tell her to go to bed and she will put herself to bed. So I would have to say no complains here! :)

Helping daddy take the crib side off!!

 Didn't realize there was a down part so she tried to climb over the high side! Silly girl
 So much easier!
 So excited!
Ahh.....so comfy!

~Fun stuff~

Aunt Nat is in Spain right now and while ago we received this in the mail. It sounds like she is having a great time! We can't wait for aunt Nat to come and visit us! 
It looks so pretty over there! 



 The other night Kimberly insisted that we wrap her baby up in her blanket, read the baby a story, and that the baby goes to bed with her. So later when I was going to bed I went to check on her and this is what I saw. So Cute I had to take a picture!
 Its been getting hotter at our house so I decided to pull the pool out I bought her. She had so much fun getting in and out of the pool. And lounging with mommy on the chairs.

 We went to a couple West Fest events this last weekend. First we went to the parade: Kimberly's first, She wasn't sure about it at first. But by the end she enjoyed it and was waving at the people. Maybe next time she will wave at more then just the end cops. ha ha


 She loved getting candy. Especially the dum dum sucker!
 Then we went home and took a nap after Grandpa Coon (Jared) met up with us and we headed over to main event (West Fest). We walked around the booths, had some yummy dinner, and then walked over to see what rides and games they had.  
Kimberly had a low fever all Saturday so she was a little out of it. We got her some corn (Her Favorite right now) but she just didn't feel good enough to eat much of it. Then we didn't want to take her on any rides. Not sure if she is getting teeth or if something is going around.


 Then that night we headed to the school by our house to watch the fireworks. It has been so nice that we found that we can see the West Fest Fireworks from close to our house so we don't have to deal with the crowd!!! Kimberly loved them she would sit there and say "boom, boom, boom" 

 On Sunday Maga, Papa, and Neni (Kenzi) came over to hang out before there flight home. We always love when family comes to visit. After Jeremy showed Kimberly the poppers. She liked stepping on them and making them pop. (The only bad thing was that the package we bought was real cheesy so most of them didn't work)

~Potty Time!?!?! Maybe......~

I went and bought Kimberly a potty the other day to start introducing her to it!! Especially because she is SO obvious when she is going potty in her diaper.


WELL............
~She was pretty excited about it
~She loved climb on and off of it
~She would open and shut the lid
~She would even sit on it with her diaper off, but then would immediately stand back up.



*Graphic*
But no pee or poo!
So the next day I watched her and as soon as I saw that she was trying to go poo I ran her to the bathroom and put her on the potty. She started getting upset and wanted to stand up so I sang the ABC's and read her a book. After a min or two she pooed!!! I don't think she understands what she did or that it's what your supposed to do in it. She peed twice on the floor right by the potty. So we have some more work ahead! She is a pretty smart girl so I don't think it will take her long, when she decides she is ready.

Jody, Cache, and Jarryn
Kenzi and Tanner















*Monday: Whole group goes to Disneyland at the same time around opening.
*First ride we went on (Kimberly first ride at Disneyland ever) Pirates of the Carribean, second Haunted Mansion and third Pooh Bear. Don't ask me why we took her on two dark rides first but we did!! ha ha
*Saw Eeyore, Tigger, and Pooh Bear Character (she kept pointing at them, It was a long line so we didn't go up and meet them)
*When we were on our way over to California adventure I saw the line to meet Mickey mouse wasn't that long. So we waited to meet Mickey. Kimberly was so excited she kept waving and saying "hi" "hi". I was so glad I decided to wait in line!!!!
*Next we meet Minnie mouse. Kimberly wasn't as sure of her. I think it was because I put her down to see if she would walk up to Minnie herself. I think that scared her so she didn't want to meet her. Lexi on the other hand was so excited and was reaching out for Minnie the whole time we were in line.
*Papa bought the girls there first pair of Disney ears with there nicknames on the back (Kimberly : "Cucumber" Not sure where it came from and Lexi: "Lexi Lou")
*Got to see 'world of color' show. It was a great show but next time we will try to get better seats at the front of the section to see it better.
*The first few days Kimberly had a little fever. I found out later that she was getting another molar!!!!


Don't know what this face was about, but it was cute that he had the same facial expression!











I really do love this little girl and am so glad I got to experience this with her!
*Tuesday we went to Disney a little later. After we got on the tram to go to Disney I realized I forgot my pass to get into the park!!!! So having the best dad EVER he went back to the house to get it. Luckily the house is only 10 mins away.
*My mom and I took the babies (Kimberly and Lexi) to downtown Disney while my dad went to get my pass. We let them run around and go in and look at build a bear. I think they enjoyed being able to run. It was a little hard when they wanted to go in different directions. Little stinkers.
*Kimberly played at the splash pad in California Adventure. She LOVED it!!!! She hates the shower but ended up sitting right where the water hits. I guess she was hot and sick of sitting in the stroller!!!
*This night we saw 'fantasmic' and some of the 'fireworks'.


*First time on 'Its a small world' I think she really enjoyed this ride!
Poor baby had very tired eyes but stayed awake to see the babies!

*Wednesday Papa, Greg, Keesha, and Lexi headed home in the morning. Jarryn stayed with us to have another day at Disney.
*On our way to Disney Kenzi realized her and Tanners passes were in my mom car (that Kylee had driven) so we waited outside of the parking garage while Kenzi ran up to get it. Well Kylee or Jody not sure which one told us the car was parked in Mickey E5. So that is where Kenzi went. After awhile Kenzi came back and said she ran back and forth on that row and couldn't find the car. So Tanner went up with her to look again. In the mean time Kylee called to say they were headed out to the car to go to the mall for awhile. My mom told her to call if Tanners backpack was still in the car when they got there. Because they couldn't find the car. Kylee got to the car and it was still there. When she called my mom to tell her it was still there my mom asked again where they were parked. She says A3!!!!!!!! Really, I wonder why Kenzi couldn't find the car! Needless to say we got his backpack and went into the park!!!!
*Had a fun field day at Disney. I went on Tower of Terror for the first time ever!!!! Not sure I really like it but I finally did it. I seem to do a new ride every time I go. (I'm a scary cat!!) I think at this point I have done all the rides at both parks now!
*Tried to take Kimberly down to Toontown, but found it was closed for the night!!!! Boo!!!! Guess I will have to take her back! :)
*Saw the fireworks show a little closer than the night before.
*Ended our Disney adventure on Pirates of the Carribean and Haunted mansion! (I thought it was interesting we started and ended the trip on the same two rides.)
*Got a few souviners as we walked out and took a few pictures in front of the castle.
*Got to the car to find we had lost the keys to the rental car!!!!!!!
*Kenzi and Tanner had come out to the car before the fireworks to get some warm clothes and couldn't remember what they did with the keys! My mom and Kenzi headed back out to Disney to look at lost and found. Didn't have any luck, and had a pissy tram driver. I called the rental place to find out what we had to do. They basicly said we would have to have the car towed and have a new key made. How much would all that cost!! We didn't want to know. As my mom was talking to the car rental Kenzi came running up saying she found them. One of the tram drivers had found them. Woohoo!!!!

Kimberly was being so funny this night at the fireworks!!! I love this pictures of her!!

You know it was a good day at Disney when you look like this at the end of the day!!!
*Thursday: Kylee, Kenzi, Tanner, Jody, and Cache headed home early in the morning with a stuffed full car.
*Maga, Jarryn, Kimberly and I head home around 11. Get on first flight we try for! Kimberly slept a good portion of the flight.
*Maga and Jarryn get on flight home to St. George!
*We definately need to take our daddy next time!
