Christmas Update.

Merry after Christmas to everyone. Our holiday season went by very fast! Too fast i must say. We spend Christmas Eve with Dan's Family, so we headed up the night before after i got out of work. One of the scariest trips i have ever been on. It was snowing and blowing and icy! Instead of it taking us 2 1/2 hours to get there, it took us 4! and the way back home was not any better! 3 hours that trip took us. But to spend time with the Family and to have Hailey there with everyone was well worth it. We got some great video footage and a great time was had by all! Next year we will try and make the time up there a bit longer!

Christmas day we went to my folks house. First we went to my grandparents and spent time there. Then we went to my parents and opened presents and ate! It was so fun watching Hailey and seeing the excitement in her eyes when she got to see a new present of hers.

That night we went home and went straight to bed - we were tired! That next morning we had Hailey open our presents to her. It was so cute watching her hold on to the paper and try and open things. Can't wait to see how she will grow this next year and see how she handles Christmas in 2009!

Dan has had these past two weeks off and has been Mr. Mom watching Hailey. He has done such a great job! He is also in the process of painting our kitchen. It looks great babe!

We also got rid of my beetle and got a Dodge Caliber. I love it! More room, which is great!

We are excited for the new year and to see what God has in store for the Kittleson family. I am learing to rely on Him more and more for things and realizing that He is in control of things, not me. He is the one to trust in and to lean on for everything. Nothing is impossible for Him.

Hope everyone has a happy New Year!

Hi Everyone! We had a great weekend. Dan worked on Saturday and then we spent the rest of the day at my parents hanging out with the neighbors and eating pizza... we had a great time! Had lots of snow on the way home. We stopped along the way and Dan helped two different people push their cars out of snow piles. What a buff husband i have!

We are getting very excited for Christmas. I have all of Hailey's presents wrapped. Now i just have to finish my shopping and wrap everything else! We also finally found a stocking for Hailey last night and hung that up. We were also able to add another building to our village! Now our decorations are complete. Now i just have to do the Christmas cards! Its nice though at night sitting in our living room with the tv on and just have the Christmas tree lights on....

minnie me


Hi everyone. Thanks to my sister Shelby for emailing out to everyone the correct way to get to this site. Things are going well over all in the Kittleson household. Hailey is just starting to get her first tooth! It is in the bottom in the front. I tried video tapping it the other night, we will see how that went. She is starting to get so big! The picture is one of my favorites. I think she looks like "minnie me"

fun at Playground



Here is a newer pic of me and the baby girl. This was her first trip to the play ground. Can't wait until she is older and can go down the slide on her own!

new beginning

Hello all - here is my first attempt at starting a blog. I thought of doing this so family who do not live so close can stay in touch with what is going on in our lives and the life of our little girl Hailey. This may not be an every day thing, but lets just see how things go.
