On The Road Again

We have ventured back down to Arizona to visit my family for Thanksgiving. Jeremy was able to take a much deserved few extra days off from work so we can be here all week. We have been here since Friday and so far we have a good time hanging out with family.

Kylie has been her usual charming, funny, cute self as she has entertained everyone with the crazy things that come out of her mouth. She has turned into quite the jokester lately. Her new favorite phrase is "I'm just kidding" I can't decide if she really knows what it means. Most of the time she says it after she has done something she knows she shouldn't, but sometimes she says it really randomly when it doesn't make any sense at all.

Lately, every once in a while Kylie will wake up in the night crying a little bit and usually we can go in her room and get her calmed down. We just figured that probably she was having a nightmare or something, but the last two night we have been here she has woken up and just cried and cried and cried. I am not sure if it is the night terrors or she is waking up in a strange place, but there is nothing Jeremy or I can do to calm her down. I try waking her up and reasoning with her, but that doesn't help. It's been so weird, and of course it's always a little bit more nerve racking when you are sleeping somewhere else and you worry about waking up the whole house. It's been a strange thing. Hopefully we don't have too many more nights like that. I feel really bad for her because she acts like something absolutely horrible is happening to her and I can't seem to fix it.


Thank goodness for day time because we have a good time then. Kylie spent some of Saturday doing her favorite thing; playing in grandpa's pool. He was even nice enough to heat the hot tub a little bit so it wasn't too cold to swim in.
My sister had suggested we take Kylie to the Rainforest Cafe in the mall. So today Jeremy and I took her out there and she was so funny. She loved the animals and thought they were pretty cool, but it would make her really nervous when the restaurant would thunder and lightening and sound like it was going to rain.
We are excited for the rest of the week and we are glad we can here.
