Christmas Lights, Part 1

All of you remember last year. Well, apparently that wasn't good enough this year for Kelsey. When Dave went back upstairs to head out and do the lights, Katelyn was headed out the window head first. I should've been warned when he asked me if I could keep an eye on Katelyn and not Kelsey too. I just thought she was listening and not heading out the window too. But when Katelyn finally fell asleep and I went looking for Kelsey, this is where I found her.


She was under strict instructions not to move and to sit there handing Dave new light bulbs to replace the burned out/broken ones. She told Dave a few times, "Dad, it's boring not moving." But when he asked if she wanted to get down she quickly replied, "No."






As you can see, she stayed up there till it was done, with only one bathroom break for fear that after coming in, I wouldn't let her get back up there.

Dave's only response, "She was begging to come up. It was either follow her up and help her or have her heading out the window head first too."

I can hear you all speed dialing CPS right now!!

Oh, she was safe enough! I think it's cute that Dave would let her go up at all. Good (brave?) Daddy!

Oh. My. Gosh.

You guys are crazy! Impressive, though, that Dave and Kels were patient enough to do that all day! The lights look great!

And I love the pic of you and the girls on the sidebar - SO cute!
