GREAT NEWS! Kendal found out that he will be coming home for another 15 day visit on April 16th!! SO EXCITED, and already making plans for his time home! Kennedy & I have been doing well. I fear we are entering the "terrible 2's" sooner than later. My sweet little angel baby has developed quite the attitude these days. She is miss independent, does not want to be told what to do or how to do it. Temper tantrums have become more frequent and her little mischievousness has gotten stronger! I know, I know its her age...but good grief~ lol
Over the years my mom has made these tied fleece blankets for every member of the family. It was Kennedy's turn to finally get her own, because she doesn't like sharing with mommy on the couch at night. OF COURSE it had to have kitty's on it and when Kennedy saw the blanket she got so silly. She was rolling all over it and saying "ooohhhh" it was too funny not to take pictures of ....
Then she had to share her new blanket with "BABY"
Such a good little mommy!

Lindsay and I took the girls to the rain forest over the weekend! Kennedy loved the orangutans & sea turtles! It warmed up a bit last week so it was nice to get out of the house and do something fun!

Checkin out the Lizards
Looking for the Ant Eaters
"BIG" best friends and "Lil" bestfriends:)

Kendal sent me a beautiful bouquet of exotic flowers (just because) they are gorgeous and Lindsay & I were surprised to see, that the same flowers Kendal sent me were high lighted at the rain forest! They are called "Birds of Paradise" and come from Brazil!!

Wants to be just like Mommy & Aunt Carli...has to get rollers in her hair in the mornings!


Patty Cake is still one of her favorite games


My baby sister turned 21 yesterday! Can't believe it! The family made her go out for a drink with us old fogies before she partied it up with her friends! Thanks to my dad for watching Kennedy so mommy could have a fun "hour" out! (because one drink is all the alcohol mommy can handle these days lol!)

The Birthday Girl!

Lindsay teaching her how its done!


And today... I took Kennedy for her very 1st hair cut! I took her to a place called snip-its~ they specialize it children and are so patient and gentle. Kennedy did great, only got nervous and whined when they used the air dryer on her! She loved staring at herself in the mirror & she also got her very first sucker! Exciting Day!

She did such a great job she got a little card at the end that she put into a machine and a prize popped out ( a rubber ducky)

Her Souvenirs!

Not much of anything going on these days, except snow. Which I HATE! I just look out the window and I get the chills! Kennedy has only left the house twice in 3 weeks and I think she's starting to get cabin fever. The jeep is rear wheel drive and I just don't feel safe having her in the car when its snowy out. We have been spending out days doing art projects, making pictures for daddy, playing, dancing and her favorite tormenting the dog~ lol I found some pictures on my Mom and sisters camera that I thought I'd share. Good thing for them or I would have no pictures this week!


Aunt Elizabeth has some BIG boots!
Cleaning up the kitchen! Such a lil suzie home maker!

Oh, I forgot to share these last week. When Kendal and I were home she would constantly make us kiss by pushing our heads together.


Then we'd turn on her and she would laugh til she Snort! haha
Constantly yelling at her "DON'T DRINK YOUR BATH WATER"
