Kennedy's hair

Kennedy's hair is finally getting long enough for me to do stuff with, but she only has enough that I can get maybe ahlf her hair in a ponytail. I came across this blog yesterday http://www.babesinhairland.blogspot.com/ so I thought I would try something out! this is what I did

lol can you tell she did not want her picture taken? She sat still the whole time that I was doing her hair and then would not let me take any pictures! I was getting in the way of her watching Woody. lol

notice Buzz Lightyears arm on the tv haha I love her little pony tail in the back!

Birthdays

So yesterday Evan turned 26! Today is Bailey's birthday (my sisters stillborn baby) and the 30th is my dad's 50th! birthday. So on Tuesday we had a birthday party for the 3 of them. We had decorated the house for my dad, and Evan said don't they have a half way over the hill sign? lol


Crazy Kennedy playing with the balloons!

Kennedy is 18 months old!

I cannot believe my little baby is so old already! I took her to her 18 month checkup the other day, and her pediatrician was very impressed that she can say around 50 words already :) She is 33" tall and weighs 22.9 pounds. She is in the 95th percentile for her height and 25th for her weight lol. She is obsessed with Toy Story right now, she watchs the movie at least once every day!

She HAS to have her blanky, 2 kitties, doggie, Woody and Jessie dolls now and sometimes a book or car with her to go to sleep haha

Moved!

We finally closed on our house early this month! I still haven't gotten anything hung on the walls haha It's 3 bedrooms 2 baths plus a loft. The guy who previously owned the house is a finish carpenter, so there is a lot of really nice wood works throughout the house. Here are some pictures!

1st tooth!

Kyrsten lost her first tooth finally! She already has her bottom middle adult teeth grown in, we were just waiting for her to loose the baby teeth. She had come dowstairs and kept messing with her tooth and I said can you push it back, and she did and said yes! then I said can you twist it? and she did and said yes! it was so funny. So I told her to keep messing with it and went to grab the camera and after every twist she would say oh, it's almost out! haha As I was walking back with the camera it came out, and of course she started freaking out because of the blood lol

Kyrsten starts Kindergarden next week, so will be going to school by her moms house so we will only have her Thursday-Monday every other week during the school year. But I'm dropping her off on her first day :)

Phoenix

So I went to Phoenix a couple weeks ago, just me no kids or husband! It was wonderful :) I stayed with my best friend Kim, and it was a lot of fun! We went to a couple movies, got pedicures, went to Sun Splash, got the new Twilight book :)

This is me with Heidi at her wedding, it was very interesting to see people that I went to high school with that I haven't seen in 6 years (did I really graduate 6 years ago !?!?!) lol!

Me and Kim with Hulk at the movies :)

Me and Kim with our Twilight books! We went and got them at midnight (it's really not as crazy as it sounds lol) It was perfect that it happened to come out when I was visiting because I bought her the first 3 for Christmas last year. And it was nice that I had it to read on the flight home!

These are Kim's dogs Max and Riley. At first Max hated me, then he wanted me to be his new mom and Kim was jealous lol!

And since I posted a pic of Kim's dogs... haha this is my lazy black lab Beau :) I think that is one of his toys he is using as his pillow lol he is crazy

Kim and I went to Sun Splash (it's a water park) with one of my good friends that I went to high school with, Christy. I hadn't seen her in 3 years! After swimming we went to dinner with her mom, I practically lived at their house during high school and for a year or two after, so she was like my second mom :)

Christy me and mom :)

It was so nice to go visit, and I was happy to come home and see my baby! She did so good while I was gone :)

(notice the princess shoes she is wearing! lol )
