Wyatt got a haircut!

We discovered that the kittens had been using under the couch as a litter box so we had an impromptu carpet cleaning.  Geez.

Wyatt and Adelyn in their matching Mickey and Minnie sweaters are pretty much the best thing ever.  I'm loving my days with these two.

Mason snapped these pictures of Wyatt as he was walking in the front door.  This is Wyatt's hang out space and I just love seeing that little face looking out at me sometimes.

Wyatt's eyes look so fierce in this last picture from our day of sledding.  So fierce.  I call these eyes his Lefler eyes.  I'll say, "He's got his Lefler eyes out."  I feel like he inherited his daddy's eye shape.  Little Mace Mace.

Thanksgiving 2019

We had a wonderful Thanksgiving at the Lefler's this year.

Adelyn's Birthday

Sweet little Adelyn had such a fun birthday.  She's such a sensitive child that I knew a birthday party with a ton of friends would be way too much for her.  But the night before her birthday she asked who was coming to her party so I quickly invited two of her friends over for a little party and ice cream the next day.  Unfortunately I didn't get any pictures of them.

It's a good thing we didn't have a party bc she was in tears at the end of us singing to her bc it was just too much attention.

But I made sure to make her day extra special.  We did any and everything she wanted.  We built her Lego's for over and hour, played with kentic sand, and went to Taco Bell (her fav restaurant) for dinner.  She was in heaven.  Then the next day we went and saw the new Frozen movie.  A perfect birthday for our favorite 5 year old.  I love you little bug.

Adelyn 5 Years Old

My little bug is 5.  She's such a sweet little thing.  Her personality is so different than Boonie and Marae's.  She's much more reserved and cautious before diving in...  But don't let that fool you.  She carries her own spunk and joy for life in her own exciting way.  I love this little girl.  My baby girl is getting big...

• Who is your favorite person in the world?  Mommy.  I'm lucky to hold this title.  She loves to play with me daily.  Our mornings are special times this year before she goes to kindergarten.  She's my little buddy.
• What is your favorite color?  Pink - particularly hot pink.  Although she does love all shades of pink including 'dry' pink (what she calls light pink).
• What is your favorite television show?  She loves to watch Winnie the clown on Youtube.  She colors pictures of cats.  She only gets to watch this a couple times a week.  Her favorite way to spend her screen time is playing Minecraft on the xBox.  She LIVES for Minecraft.
• What is your favorite movie?  Honestly... she doesn't really have one.  She's not that in to anything.  Just cats.
• What is your favorite outfit?  Anything with leggings.  Don't you even think about putting this girl in anything else.  Leggings and a t-shirt.  That's what she likes best!
• What do you like learning at school the best?  Her letters.  She's really grown over the past two months.  She's a smart cookie.

• What do you like to do best with your friends?  Pretend to be cats
• What do you hope you'll get before your next birthday? Nothing... her world is complete with all her cats.  She didn't even know what to ask Santa for this year.  She's a happy camper.

Fun facts about Adelyn:

• She doesn't want to grow up.  Sometimes I feel like she still resents Wyatt for kicking her out of baby status.  She likes to mimic his ways at times.
• She doesn't like to be the center of attention AT ALL.  She gets shy and clams up whenever anyone talks to her.  It takes a lot of coaching if she's going to give a talk or perform or anything of the sort.
• She's a sensitive soul who doesn't like to be reprimanded.  It will easily set her off into a fit of tears.
• She is a great player.  She has an awesome imagination and will often disappear into a fun filled world and I'll find her hours later.
• She loves her kitties.  Cats are life.  Good thing we have 3 of them or else they'd probably be ripped in half.
• She is known for her claws.  She will attack with her scratches when necessary.  This isn't a good thing... we are working on it.
• She loves to snuggle.  She's the only kid in the family who knows how to hold still and snuggle.  And we LOVE her for it!
