my fairy tale come true

November already

We've had a busy few weeks since my last post on Halloween.  It's become quite a bit cooler so we had to break out the warm clothes for a play outside :)  It was quite a hunt to find Kennedy a winter snowsuit this year as they all seemed so huge on her.  I finally hit the jackpot by buying her a separate piece where I could buy small (size 12 month!) snow pants and a larger (18 month) winter coat.  It's amazing how many people tell us how tiny she is.  When compared with other little toddlers her age, she is on the short side, but we know that good things come in small packages!

We had a nice weekend away with a bunch of friends at an indoor water park.  Kennedy loved splashing in the water and watching all the people.  The adults had a great time too!  We will definitely be going back in a few years when she is older to experience different attractions as it was a fun place for all ages!  When Sunday came, and it was time to go home - the daddies packed up the kids to take them home and the mommies hit the road to go on an overnight shopping trip. 


It seemed like it came out of nowhere, but our hometown Christmas was this past weekend.  All of the stores downtown were open late, with the main street being closed down for all the shoppers.  Horse drawn rides, reindeer, and other little attractions were on the street - including the one and only Saint Nick.  Kennedy was happy as a clam waiting in line saying "ho ho" when she saw the big man. However when daddy went to place her on his knee, she clung to home saying "noooo" and starting to cry... she sat there for about 5 seconds for a quick picture before daddy saved her again.  I guess I would be scared too if I was stuck on a strange man's lap.  I know in years to come we will laugh at this photo (heck, we're already laughing!).  I just hope she isn't traumatised.
