Catch Up!

Well, I am so sorry that I have not blogged for about 2 months! Life has been absolutely crazy! We had a wonderful Christmas. I can not believe it has come and is long gone. We had someone do the 12 days of Christmas for us and it was so much fun watching the kids get so excited for when they came. So thank you so much to whoever it was, it made our Christmas special! I just got a new job at the Hospital in Tremonton. I am so excited to be working there. I will only have to work 2, 12 hour shifts a week instead of 3, 8 hour, which is wonderful, and I get insurance, tuition rembursement, and an extra night with my family! So I am hoping I can go back to school this fall and finish my nursing. Kaitlyn got plowed over at one of Kirts games. A player dove for a stray ball and ran right into Kaitlyn. She hit her head really hard on the gym floor. We got her home and she started acting "loopy", which concerned us, and then she started throwing up. So we had to take her to the ER. They did a CT scan to check for a skull fracture and bleeds on her brain, but everything looked okay. They said she suffered a concussion and that we needed to keep her home and relatively unactive for a few days (yah right)! Greatfully she is doing a lot better. Jake started walking and is everywhere and into everything. The easy baby days are over. I can't believe that he is going to be 1 next week. Time flies by. Shaylee is so sweet, yet she is the biggest stinker. One morning while I was trying to catch a few minutes of sleep she decided to color my house blue with 2 blue markers. I has been lots of fun finding all the little places that she has colored on and trying to scrub it off. And last but not least Kirt is the most wonderful husband! For my birthday he took me on a suprise date. First off he arranged for a babysitter (thanks mom)! He took me out to dinner and suprised me by taking me to the Alaskan Inn up Ogden Canyon for the night. He had reserved our own cabin and when I walked in the door, on the table was a beautiful bouqet of flowers, a bag of truffles, a plate of chocolate dipped strawberries, sparkling cider on ice, and a gift certificate for a full body massage. He went totally overboard and spoiled me rotten! I love him so much and I'm so greatful for all he does for me! Well, now you you've been caught up on the McKee life!

My Little Helper!



Jake loves the dishwasher! I swear that I can open it and he can hear it from across the house and he comes speeding in and has to help! I guess it is good to train them early, right?!

Our Favorite Visitors!



We absolutely love it when Aunt Cindy and Tayler come to see us! It is always the highlight of our year! They live in Arizona and we wish they lived a lot closer because we miss them terribly when they are gone! Jake just loved giving Cindy cuddles and we can't believe how much Tayler is growing! She is a beautiful young lady and we love her so much! We miss them and hope to see them soon!!

Christmas!





Santa, I want....






So going to see Santa was way fun! Let's just say he was in high demand! We waited 45 minutes to see him and I would have just ditched the Santa thing but of course my drama queens started to cry at the thought of not getting to sit on his lap. So, they saw him and little Jake didn't even cry!
