Meet the Blodgett's part 2 (Kyleigh)

Kyleigh is the youngest and she turned 4 the beginning of June. Life with a 4 year old is never dull particularly one that is very dramatic and can cry at will. She is only 4 and I am already thinking how she will act when she is 14, I know that is 10 years away but its going to sneak up on us. First we need to make it through pre-k before I worry to much about the teen years.


Kyleigh at her birthday party. For 6 months she said she wanted a kitty party at the park. That is what she got.

Kyleigh at 4 

Will be starting pre-k in August. I'm not sure how much she will like going to school at first but after a while I'm hoping she will look forward to going. 

She plans to be a doctor when she grows up

Loves her dogs and cat.  

Enjoys books

Plays outside when ever she can

Is always singing

Is always wanting to help

 Like to "just be with you"

Is full of sassiness. (Which is cute now)

Is full of love.  She love to give hugs and kisses.  Her favorite are group hugs and will get John and my leg and "yell group hug".

We always have to drive by Ralph and Cathie's house, John's parents, so she can yell "hello Ralph and Cathie's house".

Love the pool as long as her face is dry. 

That is Kyleigh in a nut shell.

Meet the Blodgett's part 1 (the pets)

I thought I would share who we are and bit by bit how our family has come together but what is a family with out the 3 dogs, the 16 year old cat and 3 fish (there are 3 today).


Bailey, Ginger and Buster

I will start with the oldest and wisest of the pets; Buster.

Buster is very easy going until he is low on water. When he discovers he is low on water two things will happen. If we are lucky he will lay by the water dish and wait for someone to fill it up. The second, and not so lucky, things is he yells and lets the whole house know he is upset about something, even if it's the middle of the night. The first time this happened I thought he was hurt. Yu also have to watch him when you are eating because he will come and steal things off your plate.

Buster is a very sweet cat and loves to sit on your lap and most days really loves the other dogs.

He also loves the kids some days :)


Sprocket! Sprocket loves to kiss any one that he can get close too. He has never meet a stranger and loves to get under the blankets. Kyleigh loves Sprocket and Sprocket love Kyleigh. If he had is way he would sleep with her every night.



Bailey keeps our yard free of birds and squirrels. She runs them off and one of these days she is going to catch one and bering it to the back door. She is another loving dog and is always happy to get in you lap when you are sitting.



Ginger love to play in the water. She goes crazy if the sprinkler is on and she has to stay inside. She almost always has a toy with her. She spends her time walks around batting at her toy balls while having a toy in her mouth. It is a sight but can be very entertaining at times.

Swim Lessons

Megan finished her first round of swim lessons last night. She has come a long way this past year in her swimming. Last year she did not care to go off the high dive much and this year I think its the highlight of her time at the pool.





Tuesday we start round two.
