Say Cheese!

We took Kennedy to get her pictures taken AGAIN this past
weekend! Kennedy was all smiles as usual, and we got some really
great shots! Thought I would share a few of my favorites! As for our
little family, everything is going well! Kennedy has finally finished all
of her antibiotics and is back to her old self! (Thank Goodness) Kendal
is away this week in Virgina for work. He should be back tomorrow,
but we'll see. They drove up there and the weather isn't really
cooperating too well. He will be home for about a week and then he
is leaving again for about 10 days. Only 24 more days until Disney World!
I can't wait! Other than that, we are all doing great...
Hope everyone else is as well! Love to all!

Poor Baby

Our little peanut is sick again. We took her to the doctor Friday and
after several tests and a chest x-ray were told she has Croup. She is on
four different medications including an inhaler (which she hates)
It breaks my heart to see her so out of sorts. Yesterday afternoon she
wouldn't let me out of her eye sight and spent almost the whole day
laying on top of me. Today she woke up and wants nothing to do with
me (of course) because daddy is home. She spent all day in her pj's
clung to his hip! I just can't wait for her to start feeling better...

On a brighter note: Kendal and I discovered a great deal through the
military on Wednesday and by Thursday afternoon our trip was booked!
WERE GOING TO DISNEY WORLD! We called my mom & dad to tell them
about it and guess what??? They're coming too! We are driving down on
the 21st of Feb. meeting mom and dad there and then spending four days
in the happiest place on earth! Needless to say, I'm bouncing off the walls
and can't wait to get there! I know, I know, Kennedy is way too young for
Disney but this trip is more for K & me. why else do you think we asked
Grammy and Papa to come along with us....LOL! Let the countdown begin!

Aquarium!

So I know I'm a weekend behind but I wanted to make sure I got
these pictures up, last weekend we headed downtown to the
South Carolina Aquarium and Kennedy had a blast!
Everytime Kendal pushed her up to the glass of the tanks her eyes
would get HUGE and she would start babbling on and on! It was so sweet!

Daddy & Kennedy in front of the big bridge!

Telling mommy all about the fishies

So fascinated by a bald eagle, she wouldn't even look at me for the picture!

Even Daddy was having fun!
He's such a goof!

7 Months w/ Chardpanzee!

7 Months??? I still can't believe that Kennedy has been with
us for over half a year already! She is growing so quickly,
sitting up on her own now, rolling back and forth, grabbing
at anything she can get her hands on, full of energy and smiles!
Kendal and I couldn't have wished for anything more, she is the
biggest joy in our lives and we fall more and more in
love with her everyday!

I can't believe how much she has changed in the past 7 months...
it just amazes me. Where did my itty bitty baby go?

I'm Back!!!

Happy New Year Everyone! My apologies for not writing in a while,
but we haven't had too much going on in the past couple of weeks!
After we got home from Grammy & Papa's we've done our best
to just take it easy.
So far this year Kennedy has been pretty sick on and off.
She has an upper respiratory infection and is starting to cut
her first teeth
(yippie) and mommy has been
fighting a cold and sore throat for almost two weeks now.
Kendal is the only one in the house not sniffling and coughing and is
starting the year out right, he has been exercising and running
again and preparing for his annual PT test coming up next month!
Kendal's co-workers threw their annual New Years Eve Party,
but with Kennedy and I being so sick, we opted to stay home this year.
Kendal just didn't know what to do with
him self...he kept saying "I can't believe we are in bed at 10:30,
life has definitely changed" We stayed in our PJ's all afternoon on the 1st
and I took down all of the x-mas decorations.
Not too many exciting stories to share so far this year....
but we hope everyone is having a great start to 2009 and we are
so excited to see what this year will bring! Love to all!

Her new favorite thing! Just about every morning while I am getting
ready for the day and gathering laundry upstairs she sits in her crib
for an hour playing with her new friends! She talks to them, starts
giggling at them, hugs them and one morning I found her laying
down almost asleep with her little lamb! So funny!

The rest of her toys from Grammy & Papa arrived this week,
it was like Christmas all over again! She just watches that
train go round and round and round...Only one problem,
it only plays one song...Mommy and Daddy are ready for
its batteries to disappear and tell her "it must be broken!"
