The end of an era

It's officially time to end our blog here. We do hope that you have enjoyed reading about our family and keeping up with what we're up to. Of course, I can't imagine not blogging after doing it for 2 1/2 years or so!! I would miss showing off how much Kayleigh has grown and allowing those of you far away the ability to read and see what we're doing. So, since we are adding to our family, the URL no longer fits. We have officially moved to a new site. This one will remain on the internet--that way if you forget our new blog URL, or are too lazy to re-bookmark it, please click on the link to be re-directed to the updated Eikeland blog. http://eikelands.blogspot.com
The new blog is still in progress. I'll get it really up and running soon!

For Abuelo and Aunt Anne

Last night we had our friend, Erick, over for dinner while Amy is out of town. We got this picture and video of Kayleigh. The guys were laughing because Abuelo taught Kayleigh to show off her muscles. They (Erik and Erick) had to up the ante a little bit and told her to say, "Welcome to the gun show Abuelo". She had us cracking up!! She will probably be in therapy for years because of this video, but we have to post it.




Kayleigh showed off Mumble and friend to Erick, and wanted me to take a picture of her with them, so that's the special Aunt Anne photo for the day. Of course, they are huge compared to her when she's sitting down, but it's still a cute picture, don't you think?

And the name is.....

You'll have to watch Kayleigh on the video to hear baby brother's name.

This second video is just a cute one, I think. Kayleigh is enjoying having me shoot videos of her this morning and then watching them. She's talking about what we're doing today, and after answering the question about it being Grandma's birthday, she says something that I don't understand. If you think you understand her, let me know what she said! :)

Getting wet


While Kayleigh and I were at the mall with our friends, she wanted to play in the fountains that were there. I didn't think it was a good idea, so I told her that if she waited, we would play in the water at home. We were able to play outside for a long time after dinner tonight and Kayleigh LOVED it! She had more fun with me spraying her with the hose than running through the water in the sprinkler. I think she liked the hose because I would let her have it to run after me. Erik mowed the lawn while we played, and as soon as he was done he joined in on the fun. He helped dry her off while I got out of my wet clothes. He had her wrapped up in her towel and his, and it was so cute that I had to get a picture!


Completely random side note: We FINALLY got our digital camera back from Canon today!!! It works like it's brand new again!!! Woohoo!!
