We are really excited for our new house being built in West Bountiful. We had been looking for a place to build for a few years and finally found a builder we wanted to use. We had gone looking for lots with our builders but didn't find anything. We found one in Bountiful that had an amazing view of the Bountiful Temple, but just didn't like that it was on a busy street and didn't have close neighbors or a place for the kids to ride bikes.

Then one Sunday BJ went on a drive and drove right to this lot in West Bountiful. Their was a For Sale sign on it, but it wasn't posted anywhere online. After SEVERAL attempts to call and get information on the lot, we put an offer in which was accepted.  

Kaylee loves to have her own special things on her bed. She puts her lip gloss and random little toys or coloring pencils in her containers on her bed. She doesn't like anyone to touch it....which is why it is the first thing to be taken away when she continually back talks or is really disobedient.

Each morning she wakes up and immediately makes her bed. She lays out her stuffed animals and dolls at the end of her bed and doesn't like them to be touched. We keep telling her that putting her animals right at the top of the ladder on the bunk bed isn't the best place for them, but she insists it HAS to be there.

Kaylee loves to read and is doing better and better each day. She comes home with really simple books from preschool which she will read in the car on her own before we have even got home. She is now starting to sound out words everywhere we go. We love seeing her yearn to learn so much.

They had to give Kaylee her kindergarten shots, but this girl was super duper brave and didn't even shed a tear. I was so proud of her! As promised, we took her and her brother out for an ice cream cone. Shots are always the pits; especially Kindergarten shots!

Kaylee doesn't nap and hasn't for a looong time now. She on a very rare occasion will fall asleep in the car; but will wake up immediately after the car is stopped. She goes to bed at 8 pm and will sleep till around 7 am most of the time. Kaylee is very independent and loves to get herself dressed. Mom will tell her if something doesn't match, but gives her the choice to change or not. Almost never does she change even when her mom says it doesn't match; she usually replies "It looks cute though". Kaylee LOVES to wear makeup or have sparkles in her hair....really, anything that makes her feel cute and pretty. She has always become opinionated on how she wants her hair.

Kaylee is such a great helper with her baby sister and younger brother. She can change Ashlynn's wet diapers all by herself (though mom usually makes sure the diaper is tight enough...just in case). She has such a contagious Bwaha laugh that cracks us up everytime we hear it. Each night before she goes to bed she will say several times "Love you, have good dreams!" and will often announce when she is falling asleep by saying "Okay, I'm going to bed now. Good night".

We sure love our Kaylee bean!
