Bath Time

Kenlee decided that her baby was really dirty (it really was, I let her take it to Walmart and the cart left weird marks all over) so I told her she could give it a bath. We filled the bathroom sink with water and got her a washcloth and let her wash to her hearts content. She was still in her PJ's so I figured who cares how wet she gets.

She was very excited to take care of her baby like we take care of her. She always loves an opportunity to be a big helper. Cute Little Girl!

Going Private

I have decided that our blog should be private so that I can protect my family from creepers and such. I would love for you all to keep following our blog so please leave your email address in the comment section and I will add you to the blog. I will leave it open for a week so that people will have a chance to comment.

16 Weeks

16 weeks already, can you believe it? I thought this pregnancy would go slower cause I wasn't working but it just seems to be speeding past (for the most part ;) We had our doctors appointment yesterday and heard the heart beat. Everything is looking good and we scheduled our ultrasound to find out the sex of the baby for October 18th (as long as baby cooperates).

Here is my 16 week picture:

I finally look like I have a baby bump and not just getting fat. :)

Kenlee's 2nd Birthday - Part 2

On Sunday the 4th we had another birthday party for Kenlee with the Daines side. Everyone was able to come and celebrate with us, which is so sweet of them. We had a wonderful family dinner and then played volleyball. After everyone had worked off there dinner we decided to do presents.

Mitch and Hannah got her a book about being a big sister and a stuffed bear with a cape and mask so she can be Batman :) She has the book read to her at least once a day.

Kenzie, Jess and Jeff got her a sweet little doll that she loves to dress up and comb its hair.

Auntie April got her the cutest Tiana figurine that plays music for her to dance to. She loves it and plays it several times a day.

Papa and Grandma got her a purple bike to ride at home. She loves it and has to take it every time we go somewhere she can ride.

After presents she got a second cake, this one was not too fancy after the trouble I had with her first red velvet cake. She thought that the sprinkles were pretty cool though. This was after she blew out the candles, she was so excited.

This birthday was so fun, I still can't believe that she is two but she is becoming more and more of an individual everyday and I love watching her getting excited about life.

HAPPY 2ND BIRTHDAY KENLEE!!!

Another Addition to Our Family

Surprise!!! We are having another sweet baby! I am due March 8th (which is also Blake and I's anniversary so we hope it comes a little early). We are so excited and had a hard time not telling people right away but we waited til I was almost 12 weeks along to even tell our families. This time we let Kenlee tell everyone :)

She loved her new shirt but still doesn't understand what it means.

This is the ultrasound at 11 wk 4 days. Everything looks really good and it was even kicking at us while we were watching.

I really avoided taking pictures when I was pregnant with Kenlee but now I wish I could look back and compare so I am trying it this time. This is me at 12 wks. I am now 13 wks and moving into the 2nd tri.

Kenlee's 2nd Birthday - Part 1

This last week Kenlee turned 2! Can you believe it?!? Where in the world has the time gone?

This year for her birthday she had a Mr. & Mrs. Potato Head cakes. She has really gotten into the Toy Story movies so we did something out of there. She loved them!

We had spaghetti for dinner because as far as we can tell it is one of her favorite meals (pizza is a pretty close choice too). After dinner we opened presents. At first I made her look at her dad and say cheese for a picture of her and the new item but about three gifts into it she would run up to him and yell CHEESE! Poor Blake had only a split second to take the picture or all you got was her hair whipping around.

The ones he did catch you can totally tell she is saying CHEESE. She also had to have a picture with every single item in the package, not just all her books but each one alone. She is such a funny little girl.
After she had had some time to play with all her new and wonderful toys we went back into the kitchen to sing Happy Birthday and have cake.

This year my mom found a bear cake pan just like the ones my grandmother made us for our birthdays. Kenlee loved having her own individual cake and began eating it as soon as she saw it. We are so grateful for our adventurous little girl. Hope you had a great birthday my sweetheart! Next we will party with the Daines so stay tuned for another birthday post.

Trip to the Farm/ Health Days

This last weekend was really busy but so much fun. We started out Friday by going to Bear Lake to visit my Grandpa for his Birthday and to see our family. The weather was perfect so Kenlee convinced Aunt Laretta to go outside. When we got out there Kenlee was so excited to see the cows and was doing a little dance and squealing at them. She would look at us and give us a HUGE smile then turn back to the cows and bend down so she could look at them better. It was hilarious to watch. We figure that this is really the first time she has seen the cows because she was so young last summer and when its winter you just hurry in to get out of the cold.

Then Cheryl brought Tayson to come play with Kenlee and they found the garden and decided to throw dirt at each other. It was so funny that I just kept taking pictures so thats why I did the slideshow. Those two cuties were so covered in dirt but they had a great time.

Tayson also taught Kenlee about the piano peddles :) They played so well together, no big crying fights.

Kenlee also got to see Kolin's dog. She thinks all these animals are so cool but she will not touch them. She will still get really close to them so she isn't scared of them she just thinks its weird to touch them.
On Saturday it was Smithfield's Health Days and so that morning we attended the parade. The best part was that Kenlee's buddy Tayson came to play again! Two days in a row was so awesome! Kenlee brought her purse to put candy in.

When they got tired or bored of part of the parade (cause it was a LONG parade) they would go and sit on the curb. Of course they were too cute to resist taking pictures of so I took more :)
After the parade Kenlee and I went to a bridal shower for Hannah (my soon to be sister-in-law). She got to see her cousin Kenz and Aunt Jess who live down in Lehi, we are always glad when they come up to play.

Thanks everyone for such a fun and memorable weekend!
