Summer Fun

Well, I am recovering from surgery...4 days post and still feel great! No pain as of yet...but maybe I could milk it for a bit longer and see how long everyone will wait on me! hehe I still can't lift, though I have no idea why having sinus surgery requires no lifting - but then again I really do! Gregg has been pushing Kinsley and I have been taking pics of our afternoon outside! I just think we have the cutest kid, which is why I take pics all of the time...She probably thinks she is a celebrity! hehe
We are hoping to get out and about next week to start having some play dates with our friends! I am so excited about the summer and still can't believe that I have no kids for summer...This is why I became a teacher...all the free time with my family!!!! hehe

Checking out the airplane!

Laughing, as usual!

Helping clean up some of her toys!

Still helping....and grunting! It's quite comical.

Now she got dirt in her shoe! This disgusts her! She has to stop immediately and clean!

Now it's on her hand...it's only time before she says..."Let's go wash my hands"

Now she's move to another table and something is in her other shoe! What a day!

Our princess!

Now she decides to tell her Daddy to chase her....and she takes off!

And there she goes again! She would be tons faster, if she did not laugh the whole time.

Now she teases her Daddy! "Come get me, Daddy!"

We are so lucky to have Gregg...He is the best Daddy to her. I don't know who adores each other more!

Random Fun at Our House

I could not pass up the cute pics....They are randomly taken over the last few months. I am trying to get caught up on our pictures and then it is my hope to put our pictures on here often, so you can check on Miss Priss and her family!

Here we are at Gilbert Steven's Park...She loves all the fun things here!

WEE!

She likes to go BIG on the big swings!

She had a blast, as you can tell! We had Pizza for a picnic and then played - she was so tired!

She slid down the poll like her Fireman, Poppa!

She is not afraid of anything, which is very scary!

Go Kinsley! She has "Peacocks" in her hair - aka Pigtails, but that is what she calls them!


::::Here we are at Avery's 2nd Birthday:::

She loves to swing!

Gregg had to swing this little girl. We have no idea who she is, but she wanted Gregg to push her. We were cracking up! Gregg is a sucker, but such a good guy!I'm outta here. She packed up and was leaving!

Mrs. Marlene gave this precious outfit to Kinsley and I just love it! Of course, she is a ham!

She looks so tall now -

Princess Kinsley, April 2008

Kinsley's school picture. They did the whole dress up theme!

Kinsley loves helping her Daddy mow the grass!

Here she is sharing a little secret with her Daddy!

Notice the sunglasses on her head!

Here is our little munchkin, age 2 - singing her ABC's. She can also count to 16 and spell her name...But getting attention to do that is hard to do!

Sprinkler Fun

It is going to be a record breaking summer...We can tell already! It is so hot and the only way to stay outside, is to enjoy the cool water! Well, Kinsley likes the thought of it....But wants us to run with her in the water....She does not want to brave the sprinkler without us. With Gregg's foot still healing form stitches, that leaves me....

Trying to get her to go into the sprinkler alone!

Now completely running around the sprinkler to not get wet at all! What must the neighbor's think! hehe

Now running on the other side of the sprinkler, it is getting to be quite funny!

Dora Tried to get her wet, well she will show her!

And off we go - through the sprinkler....I was more wet that she was - great!

"Why does Dora keep getting me wet?"

Finally, we have all had enough - we are hot, and had to come in and cool off...Kinsley decided to play Rock Band!

Either way, we had a great time, and it as always it is so fun to be around Kinsley and see what she will think of next!!!

Maybe our next sprinkler visit, will actually get us wet~

Aquarium Fun

We kicked off the summer, by going straight to the aquarium. We had not been in awhile and Kinsley was dying to see the penguins and the butterflies - both her favorite! I was still working at the school, but met Gregg and Kinsley at the Aquarium for a lunch break! We all had a blast and of course, Kinsley enjoyed every minute of it! It was hard to go back to work when the two of them were heading for a nap! ugh!

My little cutie, outside of the aquarium - waiting to go in!

These are some of my favorite pictures, of her not looking at the camera...just being Kinsley!

And, then she likes to cheese up the camera!

This is why I love Chattanooga so much...Water and mountains - we have a perfect city!

And she cheeses AGAIN!

These birds should get a room!

Daddy and Kinsley looking at the sting rays!

Kinsley telling Mommy all about them

Heading to the butterflies....She loves touching them and holding them...She gets that from her Daddy for sure - the whole bug thing freaks me out! I swear they all try to land on me...

She caught one!


She fancied this fish!

And he fancied her...

Penguin's Rock Exhibit

After the aquarium, we head back to the car, but this time - she had to try out the water with her feet.

She is a ham, what Can I say?

She said it was cold!

Of course, the photographer in me, had to have some staged photos...

She even poses now and says cheese, and then tells me she is all done....She knows I could take and take and take pictures of her! I can't wait for the beach....

This one was my favorite....What a cutie, we have!

Until, our next adventure.....

Memorial Day

Well, summer is here for the Norris Family! We love the water and love to stay outside. Memorial Day kicked off our summer fun. We had BBQ at BeBe and Poppa's with the family. Of course, we got in the pool and had a blast. Kinsley stayed out all day and played in and around the pool. She watered the plants multiple times and got in the pool tons of times as well. She was beside herself with fun and every day she talks about going to BeBe's pool. Poppa of course, slept. Daddy sat around and watched - foot still trying to get better. BeBe laughed and watched Kinsley with every move she made. And the rest of us, Rachie, Joe, Robby and myself, swam and enjoyed the day.
Here are some of the pictures of our fun day.She loves her Uncle JoeJoe....He is so good with her and she adores him!

She is cruising around the pool.

She liked to run the car into everyone. She just laughed and laughed. She liked for everyone to splash but not to play fight.

One of the many times, she was out of the water!

And then back in - cruising again!
