SOMEONE SHRUNK LILY!!!

I almost can't believe it. Lily used to be huge!!!!! Seriously look at the size of her. That darn frog has shrunk - ALOT. Can you believe that she used to be the same size as my daughter????

WHAT THE HECK HAPPENED? In case I need to remind you, Kennedy can fit half of Lily in her mouth now. And she does...often.

How depressing. Either way you look at- I don't know how to wash stuffed animals, OR my baby isn't a baby anymore.

Note to self: Lily was green

Shes doing it...shes actually doing it!

Kennedy is officially using the sign for milk. Ok, so for a few days it meant everything...but now- IT JUST MEANS MILK! I am seriously so proud. I can't wait until she starts to learn more words. I must admit, I often feel quite foolish outside of our home signing to her. Especially because I am not sure I am doing the signs right. But hey, I guess at least I will understand what they mean.

Oh ya - and that really is fried chicken in her hand. FOR THE PHOTO ONLY...ok and for her mothers amusement.

Note to self: Be verrrrry careful what you do...apparently she really is watching.

Another One

2 teeth.
Lots Of Crying.

Getting Through Teething....Priceless

Flower Child

A Walk in the Park

My daughter was all smiles as she enjoyed the weather today and yesterday. It's nice to be able to put her down on the grass and let her discover the out doors. Really, she has never had the opportunity. She enjoyed herself. She tried to eat a few flowers, sticks and bugs...BUT it was an awesome day. I am looking forward to an incredible summer.

Not a happy camper

After reading my friend Katie's blog I am glad to hear that I am not the only mother dealing with a miserable infant. Although i wouldn't wish one day of this on Katie - it's nice to know I am not alone.

Kennedy has a tooth. AND she wants EVERYONE to know it. She is not herself. She is MAD. She doesnt want to eat, or play, or hear a song, or watch cartoons, or even kiss Lily.

She wants to cry. Alot. I feel bad for Kennedy. Please oh please tell me that it gets easier with each tooth. I still have like 19 to go!!

On a more positive note, it can't last forever.

On a less positive note, I had my first baby bite. Booo.

Teeth Stink.

This is me today!!

Note: The tongue shot is for you Katie! I know I said she would outgrow it, but sadly she hasn't. Dear Gene Simmons - EAT YOUR HEART OUT!

A month since I posted??

I can't believe it's been a month since my last post.

Kennedy is changing so much right now that i should be posting more often. (Bad Mom)

Although she hasnt quite mastered the crawl, the scooch is getting her where she wants to go. At this rate there is no need for the girl to crawl. She pulls her little self around quite quickly and has mastered the art of obtaining just about any object she sets her mind on.

7 months old. I can't believe it.

The doctor informed us yesterday that she is 28.5 inches long and 18.9lbs.

She is wearing 12 month clothing, in length not width. The poor girls pants are so loose around the belly but to fit her long legs they have to be.

She is developing quite the personality these days, and still has a thing for the ratty old stuffed frog "Lily". I don't know what it is about that thing, but Kennedy could kiss her all day long.

It's funny how she clutches Lily by the leg no matter what she is doing. (I have included a picture of Lily on one of her better days. I must admit she is ussually not so clean. Bad Mom) I took her to Half Pint today to buy another Lily "just in case". I offered her the new Lily and she seemed pleased...for about a minute or so. She wants ratty old Lily. I am embarassed. No amount of washing makes her look clean...and she definately doesn't smell good. I used to wonder how these moms could let their children chew on these ratty old disgusting stuffed toys. Now I know.

Note to self: Do not be so quick to judge, some day it may be your child sucking on a dirty old toy while masterfully licking a runny nose, and wearing one sock.
