I can't resist any longer

I've been reading other blogs for a while now and since Kinley's had such an exciting last few days I've finally caved. All within the last week she's given up her paci which she used while sleeping only, turned her carseat around (I know it's a few weeks early but I couldn't resist that any longer either.), and had her first snow.
Here are some pictures of all those exciting events:

Going to sleep without her paci hasn't been as big a deal as I thought, but she wakes up a lot earlier. This morning I thought she'd gone back to sleep...not so much. She reached through her crib and grabbed some books to keep her entertained while waiting on me to get up.

She wasn't so sure about the carseat being turned around at first. Can you tell by the what the heck is this look on her face?

As soon as Daddy started backing out though she was pumped.

But the best by far was the snow. It took a few hours for the snow to start sticking before we headed out. This is Kinley watching it snow from inside.

We didn't stay out for long. Just long enough for some photo opps.

I think if the ground squished like this all the time she might actually consider letting go and walking by herself.

It kept snowing all while Kinley was taking her afternoon nap, so we had to go back out to show how much deeper the snow was.

Daddy's girl through and through.

Along with reading other families' blogs I've become obsessed with sewing blogs. There are lots of great free tutorials I've used recently while preparing for Kinley's 1st birthday. It's cupcake themed...Could you guess? I'll add pics of those too later.
