Adventures with Gus!

Dear Kacie,

For Christmas you got bath markers and you love them still. One night, you decorated yourself!

When I was a little girl we used to go to this place called The Bean Museum…technically, there are some other words in the real title of the museum but that's just what we call it.

It is a museum full of preserved dead animals… it sounds so weird when you say it that way but it is really cool!

We went with Dez and Gus and you two loved! We had you hold hands too and it was so cute!

You're both getting so old and Dez and I are having to find new ways to entertain you. We've spent a lot of time with Dez and Gus lately.

One day you got your snacks and sat in this little corner behind the couch.

We got some ice cream from JCW's and you didn't eat much of it but you did really good at feeding it to yourself, even though a lot of it ended up on your face! Everything you do is just cute.

Daddy was moving around some furniture one day and he sent me this picture and said that you were scrubbing this wall with a wipe saying over and over "what it doin? what it doin? what it doin?"

My most recent pregnant craving has been Ruffles with ranch dip… and you also love it! The only problem is that you will scoop a ton of the dip on your chip and then lick the dip off, without eating the chip. It's adorable. Maybe a little unhealthy but it makes you happy and I'm too tired to care much right now!

We went to the store one night and you decided to try out some chairs. We couldn't get you off! We said "bye, see ya" and you just laid here like this as we walked away!

Daddy picked out your outfit for church one day and it was so cute and made you look old! You even put your boots on and left them on!

Then you got to watch The Little Mermaid! You were glued to the screen for about 15 minutes of it and then you got bored and left the room but then when we stopped it you came back and made us turn it on. So apparently you like it, but your books are cooler. And I'm just fine with that!

Guess what?

We had another play date with Gus and Dez! We went to Thanksgiving Point and walked through The Gardens. We first stopped at the koi pond and you were enthralled by the fish! Unfortunately, you somehow kicked your shoe off and it fell into the pond! Luckily, it drifted to the edge and Dez got it.

About 5 minutes later, Gus's shoe was kicked off and fell into the pond! Unfortunately, it was on the opposite side of the dock and we thought we wouldn't be able to get it back. Luckily, there was a sweet man that found a stick and helped us get it back. It was crazy that both of you lost your shoe. Luckily, we had strollers and grass is just perfect for bare feet! You loved running down the hill, even though you kept falling!

We had so much fun and you were asleep within 3 minutes of driving away!

It's been great for you to have a buddy that gives me a little break from chasing you. I just can't wait until Kalvin is here and I can walk, not waddle, again!

We love that you have so much energy though. It's cute and entertaining!

Love,

Dad and Mom
