I am such a doll, this pretty dress was made by my Grandma Lamb

she is so talented!

Our little Angel!
Today Kenadie had her ears checked and the Audiologist told me when the test
was done that he had good and bad news. The bad news was that he wouldn't see us again
and the good news was that Kenadie's ears are just fine and she can hear without any problems.
Just another blessing that has been sent our way with her.

At this time of year and especially being Thanksgiving, I would like to pause and give thanks and gratitude to so many things especially my Heavenly Father for the many things that I have been blessed with this past year, I don't think I would have ever made it with out his tender mercies and miracles that he has provided for me. I have felt him in my life and know that he is aware of me and that he does hear and answer every prayer. I am thankful to him for the chance that he has given me to be a mother to such a special little girl and a wife to a great man. I never thought I would have a chance to experience either one of these callings in this life. I am thankful for families and loving parents, I don't know were I would be without each and every one of you, you all have helped in so many ways and lifted me when I was low. I love you all and give thanks to you. I am thankful for the gospel in my life and for the many blessings that I receive from being a member. The list could go on and on....... I wish you all a very very Happy Thanksgiving and hope that you all ponder on the things that you are most thankful for at this time of year.

Just a few fun pictures

Gosh I love her so much!!!!

Kenadie had her 4 month check this last week and Dr Brown

said she was doing awesome.

She weights 7 pounds 12 ounces and is 20 inches long.

She isn't on the charts but she is trying hard to get there.

Kenadie also had her eyes checked this last Wednesday and the Doctor

said that her eyes are fully vascularized and developed and that he wouldn't need

to see her again unless we saw a problem. I was really nervous taking her there

because they say it isn't a pretty thing to watch....they have to clamp their eyes open.

When the Doctor put the eye drops in she kind of turned red and squirmed but never peeped and then when he came back she was sleeping and so he tried to look without the clamps and Kenadie totally layed there sleeping and he was able to look without it. Kenadie slept through the whole exam and was a very good little girl. Later that day we went to the ENT to check her ears and they were clogged with ear wax and so he had to dig that out and that is when she cried her eyes out, poor little girl-I felt so bad. He did a hearing test and she didn't pass but I don't think they did it right, the lady spent a whole 5 seconds on each ear and Kenadie was crying and moving around, how can you get a good reading with that? So on Wednesday we are headed back to the Audiologist at the hospital to have him do a hearing test. I will keep you posted on the results. No other news I believe at this point. Just growing like a weed and very very spoiled!!!!!

So it has been a long time since I have blogged....sorry, I can't believe how much time a baby can take from your day, but I am loving every minute of loving her. I started back to work on Monday the 17th, what a killer that was to have to leave her for 10 hours a day.

Kenadie not to excited to have me go back to work :) jk

Luckily my mom and dad and sister Keri are going to be watching her so that I don't have to take her to a day care where there is alot of kids and sickness around.

Grandpa loves (I think) spending time with Kenadie, probably not what he thought he would be doing after he retired, the other day when I went to pick her up, he asked if they could adopt Kenadie.

I knew Kenadie was in good hands but I thought I should leave some very strict instructions for Grandma and I didn't want her to loose them so this shirt was very fitting :) I am sure Kenadie got lots of love and kisses.

The story behind the dress

Kenadie's blessing dress has a story to tell.... Grandma Lamb made her dress from my great Aunt Terese and Zelpha's Temple robes that were made by their mom/my Great Grandma.
I feel so close to those that have gone on before us and know that they are not far and they have been Kenadie's gaurdian angel's through her short life. I feel very honored that my little girl could have a piece of something that belonged to those that have touched my live and were my best friends. Gosh I miss them so much, not a day goes by that I don't think about them and the fun times that we shared....Love you Aunt Terese and Zelpha!
Thanks mom for making such a special dress for my little girl and for putting up with me and my pickyness on how I wanted things done and for re-doing the dress "many" times. You are the best and we love you tons!

Kenadie's Blessing day

Today Kenadie was blessed and it was a very good day despite the rain.

We had a lot of family that came and supported us.

Kenadie was a doll and very good and patient.What a doll!

HAPPY HALLOWEEN

My first Halloween

Mommy's cuddly kitty

Notice my oxygen is gone, we spent 1 1/2 hours in the

Dr's office doing an oxygen trial and I pasted.

Yea! no more tubes on my face

or tubing strung around the whole house.

I am weighing in at 6 pounds 14 ounces now days.

Growing oh so big!

Picture before the oxygen came off.
Daddy calls me pumpkin so I thought it was very fitting that
she dress up as his little pumpkin.
