We spent Christmas Eve with the Murdocks and Christmas day with both of our families. We had so much fun being together and visiting. It took Kylee about a day to warm up to all the new faces but then she was happy being around everyone. It was nice to get away from the cold weather in PA. I don't think it got over 65 degrees the whole time we where there. Some highlights from our trip:

Mary's treats: Hello dolly's, sandies, and chocolate balls, yum!!!
Sheri's butterscotch chex mix
Mom's chex mix and sugar cookies
Visiting all our favorite restaurants: PeiWei, In N Out, Chipolte, Portillos, Sprinkles, Juice it Up
Golfing (well, the boys)
Shopping
Hot tubbing
games (especially our new favorite Ticket to Ride)
visiting the Newport Beach temple
taking Kylee to the beach for the first time
catching up with old friends
taking Kylee to the park

Seven months old

On December 21st Kylee turned seven months old! I can't believe how fast time is flying. Here are some highlights of Kylee this month:

she will tummy scoot across the entire living room
she rocks back and forth on all fours (she will only crawl a few steps)
she loves playing patty cake with mom or dad
says, "dadada"(she doesn't know what it means yet)
she loves to eat rice cereal, oatmeal and fruits and vegies
she loves drinking water from her sippy cup and also chewing on it
she loves giving kisses to us and her doll and bear
she loves sitting up while playing with her bucket of toys
she has her four bottom teeth
she was sleeping from 6pm to 7am but we are now adjusting back to east coast time and are all way off...
she loves bath time and gets excited when she hears the water running
she loves bouncing in your lap

Murdock family pictures

While we were at the Murdock's we took some family pictures. Here is the whole gang.

Kylee loves her cousin Travis and wanted to give him kisses during the photo shoot.

This picture is a crack up!

Baby it's cold outside!

I have something to say........snow is not that cool! Jeremy and I have agreed that the snow was great when you were visiting the mountains/Utah, for vacation, snowboarding, etc.....but living in it is NOTHING fun! Luckily there's been only 2 Noreaster's this month and we will be away for 2 weeks enjoying much better weather back in CA. This December has been a tough one with Jeremy being sick with a nagging cold and my back going out a few times...and to top it off Kylee got a cold with an ear infection! But we have been able to get out and enjoy Christmas City USA aka Bethlehem, PA.......touring through downtown bethlehem with all of the lights, the snow, the Christmas trees...its georgeous down there. Here are some recent pictures....

Mall Christmas Tree

Bundle up its cold outside! (14 degrees today!)

Jeremy made this snow angel tonight (Saturday) and I thought I would document it! Our flight leaves Philly on Monday morning and were hoping we can make that flight and get home for the holidays! We are so excited to see our families and be away for a bit. Kylee is just about to crawl so maybe it will happen during vacation where everyone can see her! She's starting to wave randomly and grin, something Jeremy has been working on for awhile with her.....she adores her Daddy and loves giving him kisses when he gets home from work!
Well this will be our last post until we get back, wish us luck! We wish everyone a Merry Christmas and a happy New Year 2010!

Happy Thanksgiving!

This year we spent Thanksgiving with some friends in our ward here in Bethlehem. Shannon and Becky cooked an amazing Thanksgiving dinner!!! It was fun to visit and snack on yummy appetizers all day long until it was time to eat our actual meal. We are so thankful for our family, new friends, good health and a mild winter so far :) anlong with much, much more.
