Nathan says

Mama: Can I get a hug?
Nathan: Oh yes! The biggest hug you ever ever saw!

Vivian Says

We have been terrible about documenting Vivian's speech. She's been pretty talkative so it's even more embarrassing that we haven't really been logging any of it. I'm going to keep adding ones to this but this covers the last few months.

While we have a sense of what she's saying most of the time, there are others where she rattles off something incomprehensible for about 10 second straight and looks at you like, "did you get that?" The answer would be, "no."

Some of my favorites though.

At bedtime while holding her lovey - Baby happy. I happy.

I love you. (unprompted usually. It's awesome.)

Soup yummy. I eat it. (This is notable because she's much more of a picky eater than Nathan ever was, so anytime she looks at a food and declares it yummy before tasting is a total win.)

Mama do it for me, peeease?

A random day in January-from Nonnie

I almost posted ten of these because I love Nathan's hands and how he uses them.  In no time they'll be a man's hands.

                                             

Blog Name Change!

You may (or may not) have noticed that while Mom has been posting Christmas photos (thanks, Mom!) I've been posting seriously backdated stuff (see June - September so far). I am committed to going from oldest to newest of my photo as I know how easy it would be for me to forget to get to the old stuff if I let myself let it slide "for now."

However, the title of the blog has been bugging me for some time now, since a) Nathan isn't attacking anyone more than is normal for a 3 year old and b) we don't even call him Nat 95% of the time.

Anyway, Kelly Kids is a kind of lame moniker, but it'll do for now.

Here's some recent cute to add to this post, which is borderline unnecessary. :)

Christmas Eve Kids-from Nonnie

Christmas Eve Day 2015- from Nonnie

I don't know how to format so you get them this way until Annie gets them fixed up.  It was a fun day for Nonnie and Papa.
