There's a first for everything....



I truly enjoy blogging about our journey as parents and sharing all the pictures of our family with you...but most of all I hope that one day Kennedy and Presley will love reading this blog and cherish each memory I have tried to capture for them. Our girls bring us so much joy everyday!

God made dirt...and dirt don't hurt!

I remember my mom telling me that she was so happy that I turned out to be ALL GIRL even though I had 4 brothers as my playmates most of the time growing up.  When I found out that we were having a baby girl, I couldn't wait to play dress up with her, paint her toes, and do her hair!  Although I do all these things with her now, my girl likes to get her hands dirty too!  Hence the reason why I am posting these few pictures.  We have so much yard work to do at our new house...but in the meantime, a little messy fun is ok with Kennedy :)

 Hey guys, I made it to the top of the dirt mountain! 
 

If we would have turned the hose on, she would have been in heaven!

Sea World!

This is Kennedy's 2nd trip to Sea World (a perk of living in Florida and having a teacher for a mommy that gets in free!).  Rusty took the day off this time and we all went as a family.  We got the annual pass for him so we hope this will be a nice place to take her on "daughter trips".  The dolphin show was her FAVORITE!  Kept her attention the whole time!  One of the birds even flew right over Rusty's head.  We didn't get too many pictures because we only had our phones but here are a few...fun day for sure!
Ready for our fun day!

Amazed by the dolphins!



I love this show Momma!

She had a blast!
 
 
 

We have a year and a half old little girl! Time is flying...

I am trying to get a few more blogs in before life with 2 comes along and my time is spread even more thin!  We are really enjoying this "stage" Kennedy is in.  She is learning new things everyday, having tons of conversations with herself and us (although not much makes sense, haha), becoming much more independent (I am not surprised!), looking more and more like a little girl, and quite the little daredevil/gymnast??!!  She loves smoothies, straws, beads, balls, mommy's jewelry, shoes, playing with daddy, KIDS, books, climbing and being outside.  We take strolls in her "car" around the neighborhood all the time.  We can't wait for her to meet this new baby, she will be such a great big sister for sure :)  Well enough writing, let's get to the pictures so you can see for yourself what Miss Kennedy has been up to these days! 

 Caught in the act!  She loves to jump off the side of the couch to her bean bag.
 
 Playing with her new easel from Nini. 
 
 You will see that playing with Daddy is her favorite!
 
Yay!  I get to go outside!
 
 What Momma?  You aren't coming with me? :)
 
 Her boots with the fuuuuurrrrr!  This is where you will find Kennedy most of the time!
 
 Thankful for the cold weather so we could have some fires in our new fire place!
 
 Daddy is hungry....
 
 Hungry for RIBS!!  I can just hear her giggles!
 
 Just reading by the fire...we find her all the time with her books...makes me so happy!
 
 
 Good Morning!
 
 Where's Kennedy!
 
 Getting into Uncle Matty's things...
 
 Kennedy loves to sit with me while I get ready and get into everything! 
 
 There she goes!  Jumping everywhere!
 
 Hi angel!
 
 Daddy did it!
 
 
 Enjoying the weather!
 Our beautiful girl!  Love this one!
 She is always trying to stand on her head!
 
Happy!
 
 How big is Kennedy??!!  Soooo Big!
 
 Kennedy and her BFF Daniel.  They are so cute.  She is going to miss him.
 
Uncle Matty and Uncle Bucci opened their store in DeLand this past weekend, Sportsanity!  We were excited to be at the Grand Opening!  As you can tell by Kennedy's face, haha!
 

Kennedy thought the store was a BIG hit!  Thanks for the shirt boys!
 
 Loves to "read" her DVDs and watch TV!  haha!
 
Getting ready for Easter! 
 

Trying to get my belly button, lol!
 
Sweet Baby G2's face at 35 weeks I think....can't wait to meet him or her!
 

36 week belly...OMG!
