Kenzey's blessing

Kenzey's blessing was almost two weeks ago (has it really been that long). We had originally planned to do it this weekend, but some things came up and we moved it up to the end of March. I guess there really wasn't a great time to do it. Some of the family couldn't make it and then there was church. As I was changing Kenzey into her dress we got the call.....church got canceled. We got a ton of heavy wet snow and the power went out, so she was blessed at home. It was a very nice blessing. She is such a sweet special spirit. I just love her so much! She is so happy all the time and brightens up the house.

Here are my favorite pics.

Always eating everything.

I love the way her dress sparkles here.

These ones just cause you can see the whole dress.

Oh and yes she spit up all over her dress right before we took these!

Trying to get a photo with all of us looking good is just about impossible! I don't know how Missy managed to do it so often with our family photo! Someone is always making faces (or has their eyes closed).

 Nick wanted a family photo too, this was my fave! Kami loved spending three weekends with Anna in less than two months.

Waiting to get blessed, you can see the shoes here.

Mar and Cory......looks like they might need one soon!

Thanks to all those that came! I was bummed I didn't get to take her to church and show her off in her pretty dress, but this is one blessing I will never forget! It really was a special day.

Another catch-up post!

So apparently I am just not going to get better at blogging anytime soon. I am so far behind I just play catch up anymore. I have high hopes that sometime in the future life will get less chaotic (hope). In the meantime here is another summary of what we have been up to.

Kaite had her last meet so we all took a trip down. This last meet wasn't so great. The home team just walloped everyone, her team usually takes 2 or 3rd and didn't even place. Oh well, she had fun and that is what is important. She has her back handspring down and has been learning to "fly" from one bar to the other. Ky said she is doing great with it.

We had fun hanging out with cousins and visiting the horses. The girls love horses so much....hmmm I wonder if we know anyone with horses that lives close!!!

We definitely enjoyed the warmer weather.

Being silly

Only 2 months apart

bestie cousins

My fave pic the whole trip. (visiting Gene and his lizards)

Ky went with Ash on her class field trip cross-country skiing. It had been quite awhile since Ky has skied but he did great. They had a perfect day and lots of fun. next year I am going downhill skiing with her.

I love all the goofy faces Ash makes!

Hams

Kami passed off all her "no excuse" words. She also read Green Eggs and Ham to me awhile back. I think we finally have that reading thing down!!!

team photo from one of the first meets, they took 2nd here.

Finally some hair I can put up!!!

kicking back with the Justice catalog, she LOVES it...we are in so much trouble!

first Sunday at church.

A few random pics.

We celebrated 16 years of marriage. We also had a contest to see who bought the tackiest anniversary present....my tiki doll (Buddha on Slim fast) won! Now Ky has to "display him proudly" until next year!

I also celebrated a birthday, 26 again! We made it to a wedding, had a baby blessing (pics from that later), got the tube slide up on the swing set, had "muffins with mom","donuts with dad", and watched conference. This weekend we will be celebrating another birthday, going to another wedding, and a baby shower. I am sure by the time Easter is over I will be ready to do another catch-up post! Life sure stays busy with all these kiddos, but I wouldn't have it any other way!

3 months old

 Kenzey is 3 months old today. I couldn't decide which pic I liked the most so I posted them all. She is weighing in at 12.2 pounds and is about 23 inches long. She is the happiest baby EVER. She just loves all of us, but still prefers her mom. She loves to just sit and talk to people, she can go on for a long time. Kenzey rolled over yesterday for the first time! She is so sweet and just wants to be part of the action. She has started to take a big interest in our food when we eat, it's funny how she just stares at it! I think she is starting to teeth. I can see her two bottom teeth and she drools a ton now, but doesn't seem bothered by it. She sleeps 7-9 hours at night, wakes up once to eat and sleeps for another 2-4 hours (for a total of 11 hours) she really is a good baby. She loves to sit up and has stared to put everything in her mouth. She LOVES to chew on her burp rags. One of my favorite things she does is when Lyvi gets close to her Kenzey's eyes get really big and she kind of gets a panicked face. I think she is thinking "don't let her sit on me!" Love this little girl so much!!!

Yep, eat your arm!

 

 I love this face.

 

 

She is such a sweetie, we love her so much.
