A little slower than usual

This week sure has been a long one, which is why I'm a little behind. Kennedy was quite the little grouch this week. Looks like she is getting in about 4-6 teeth all at once. She has been waking up completely miserable every morning, then spends the entire day crying & hanging on me and has been waking up at around 2am screaming at the top of her lungs until around 6am when she finally falls back to sleep! Makes for two very tired grandparents and one very exhausted mommy! I made sure not to let Kendal miss out on our fun either, even though he is 7,000 miles away I wanted to make sure he could have the full experience of being the parent of a teething 14 month old (Just Kidding)~ but we did have to turn on the web cam at about 4:30 in the morning 2x so he could sing to her (which actually calmed her down for about an hour, lol)
Kendal has been gone for a month now. He is doing well, but is pretty lonely. So if anyone gets a minute during their day, he would love an email or letter. He works long hours and then comes home, eats dinner, and goes to sleep and then Repeat! So a quick note of encouragement would really help! Kennedy is starting another round of swimming lessons tomorrow morning. I can't wait to get her back in the pool! She loves it so much and we will be enrolling her in Gymboree within the next month! Trying to stay as busy as possible to pass along the days!
We went to the Rain Forest at the Cleveland Zoo last weekend. It has been raining on and off all week so we decided to do something in doors. Kennedy loved watching all of the animals, especially the Orangutans & Sea Turtles. The Orangutan came right up to the glass to see her :) Or so she thought! lol After the Rain Forest it had stopped raining so we took a trip over to Memphis Kiddie Park. Kiddie Park is a tiny family run amusement park for kids and has been there for years and years. My mom has pictures of my siblings and I there 20 years ago and she had her 5th birthday party there~ haha! Anyways, Kennedy loves carousels so we stopped by for her to have a quick ride (quick meaning 3 times, lol) and a little train ride too! She had a blast and we will definitley be going back next summer when she will be old enough to ride all of the rides!!!
Well, not much more to report, Hope you are all having a great weekend~ love you all!

Last week was "Uncle Bubby's" birthday~ she made sure to help him eat his cake!

Here comes trouble

Talking to Daddy in the middle of the night

Reading stories w/ Grammy late @ night


She loves playing outside and since its been raining everyday we haven't been taking our daily walks or swinging on her jungle gym. I've been catching her staring out the front door almost everyday!

Watching the rain

Lizards and snakes OH MY!


She loved him!
