Kailei-ism's

Kailei: (sigh) I've always wanted to be a princess...
Zeb: You're MY princess!
Kailei: Too bad you're not the king of the world!

Kailei's fortune: Don't ignore minor details; they are the key to your success.
After reading this she said, "Oooh! Now I have a key to my success!"

Kailei bought a necklace today at Kohls' that had a gift tag on it to fill out.
She filled it out: To: Kailei
From: Kohl's

At dinner...
"Can I fix your potato Kailei?", I asked.
"Why? What's wrong with it?", she answered.

After Zeb returned from a trip, Kailei ran up to him while stating..."Our family is complete once again. Group hug everybody!" 

Kailei-ism: "If I don't get all the questions right on my reading test tomorrow, I'm sooo getting an easier book."

Turning over the hourglass I could hear Kailei saying, "You have 3 days to say your sorry.   If you don't, you will have to stay in your room forever.  And forever is a very long time."

 

Kailei's Card

Sometimes we forget how Kailei's life started.  It seems like she has been more interested in her story lately.  We are happy to tell her what we can but occasioally we know there will always be an empty space in her heart.

The other day she wrote me this card.  It was too sweet.

"Dear Mom,
I now you for seven years now. I was born in China but I had old parant but they could not take care of me.  So they left me on a rock and put some money and some milk.  I love you so much. You are the best.  What is your birthday?    Love, Kailei"

Winter Park

Woke up yesterday with a desire to do something fun.  We decided to head for the mountains since it was a beautiful day and landed in Winter Park.  The alpine slide was calling our names.  We had Nic with us and we all had a blast at the Winter Park Fun Park.  We got to go down the slide 3-4 times and then Keara and Kailei also did the trampoline jumpy thing.  Nic and Zeb both wiped out on the slide but fortunately it was on the last run for the day. Not sure what they did but they scraped themselves up pretty good.  We had a great time.  Looking forward to next year. 

Kailei's 7!!

Kailei celebrated her birthday again with Sydney this time.  We decided to have a pool party which would have been awesome had the weather held out.  Fortunately we got there early because it was soooo hot so everyone got to swim before the clouds rolled in and forced us to head to our house for dinner and cupcakes.  The girls were spoiled with gifts from family and Kailei's godmother, Lynn.  Kailei did get her first American Girl doll which was a big deal.  She has been playing with barbies, listening to the Glee Concert cd and pretending her AG doll, Molly is going to school.  Happy to see her happy.

Back-to-School-Night

Had Back-to-School Night for the girls already.  Enjoyed the evening.  Keara's teacher did a great video that highlighted their school day activities.  It was pretty funny actually.  Kailei's teacher was more traditional in nature but enjoyable as well.  Nice to be as informed as you can be.
