SMILE!

I hope this makes your day! I giggle every time I look at it!

Swim Day

We thought we would take advantage of one of the first nice days in a while and go swimming. The girls had swimming lessons coming up so I thought they better get a little practice in before they went.
Andee was a little hesitant at first but it didn't take her long to realize how much fun it was. We couldn't get her out when it was time to go.

This is how Kenadie felt about the whole thing.

Just sun bathing!

Peanuts Anyone?

Any normal child would sell lemonade right? Well, being the child that she is, Paityn decided to set up a stand and sell TRAIL MIX! For a little while her only customer was Andee, Dave and myself. She moved her stand a short distance down the sidewalk and was SOOO excited when some neighbors across the street came and bought some from her. She had to run to the back yard and tell Dave that she had had her first customers. Andee couldn't get enough of buying it.
You can't see it, but her sign says "Peanuts, 2 cents"
What a little entrepreneur (spelling?)

2 Months

2 months? Where did the time go? Although, it does seem like we've had her forever. She got her two month shots a few days ago and was officially made a princess by Dr. Clayton. We love Dr. Clayton!
Here are a few of the things that make Kenadie amazing!
*she makes her opinion known very strongly by crying and knows she can get her way
*she LOVES sucking on her fists - hopefully she won't find her thumb
*she has discovered that she can see her hands and will just lay there and look at them. It makes her go cross-eyed and is very funny to watch. She will also sit and watch her toes if she can find them.
*Kenadie is very happy in the mornings and is very generous with her smiles.

This is the best I could do with getting a smile. The camera is never around when I need it.

*she likes to play pat-a-cake with her feet and likes it when I put her toes in her mouth.

*has started to swat at toys hanging in front of her

*likes it when Paityn and Andee talk to her

*has discovered she has a voice and loves to goo and "talk"

*she LOVES the baby in the mirror (working on video for that. It's the funniest thing ever!)

*absolutely loves her baths and has learned to splash but hates getting lotion on and getting dressed afterward. BRRRRR!

*has the cutest chubby legs!

*likes playing with, sticking out and chewing on her tongue

*weighs 11 lbs. 13 oz and is 22 1/2 inches long

*likes to face forward so she can see everything

*she is known to sleep in until 9:30 or even 10:00 most mornings.

What a Blessing

On Sunday, Kenadie was given a name and a blessing by Dave. It was such a special day and Kenadie was like a little angel in her first white dress. Families of both Dave and I came to help us celebrate. We were so glad they were all able to come and missed those that weren't able to come. We were planning on having our gathering outside but the weather had a different plan so we all were able to pack together in our house. It turned out great though! Our Little Miss Kenadie on her blessing day in her dress. She wore the bonnet that came with the dress for her blessing but we took it off as soon as we got home.

There's just something about a sleeping baby.
Dave looked so handsome in his suit and gave a nice, but simple, blessing.
Paityn and Andee were in heaven with all of the visitors at our house.Kenadie with grandma (my mom). Kenadie with grandpa (my dad).
