Kenadie & I went with my parents down to St. George for 6 days and what a blast we had. Kenadie was even pretty good in the car for the 6hour drive.

We went swimming and Kenadie loved it!

She didn't want to get out of the pool she cried to get back in

We played all day long, shopped all day long and just had so much fun all day long!

Tiannes friend Kali works for a Dentist and he does hand molds for babies so Kenadie went and had hers done. This is the end result....it is so cute, I love it and will cherish it forever!

This is the Dentist, he was the nicest guy ever....Dr Stewart

Not such a fan of sticking her hand in the glass, oh so happy!

This is her first impression of it all. Sorry these pictures are all out of line...

The crew mixing up the brew.

Mommy and me before it all started

and then Kenadie taking a break in the hammock

Thanks mom and dad for taking us with you and for the fun we have had the last 6 days and Thanks also to Tianne and Kali for all the fun and for putting up with us as well.

We Love you all and it was so hard to have to come home to cold, rainy weather and to a husband/dad with bronchitis.

Today Kenadie had her 9 month well check up. She was not so sure about having to go to the Dr again she cried when I had to undress her and then cried when I put her on the scale. Thank goodness no shots this time, they did have to prick her toe to check for enemia but she didn't cry with that. She is 14 pounds 11 ounces and is 25 3/4 inches long. She is on the charts finally! 1% on her weight and 5% on her length and 21% her head. Dr Brown was very impressed with her growth it is moving steady up the chart and the only thing jumping is her head circumference which he said that her brain is growing and getting the nutrients she needs and that her weight is going up steady but not jumping which would say she is just fat. He said that he was very happy with all that she is doing and the way she is growing and developing. It was a very good visit and I am again very thankful to my Heavenly Father for such a healthy little miracle that has filled 100% of my heart. I Love her SOOOOO much!

HAPPY EASTER!

I love the look on her face in this picture.......mischievous

This is me and my pretty Easter dress and another milestone accomplished....I can sit up by myself.....Yeah!

On Saturday we went down to Lehi to a baptism of one of our nephews on the Kelly side. It was good to see each other and spend time with everyone.

This past Wednesday we had to take Kenadie for her final synagis shot (I know I said last month was her last but they wanted to do one more) The nurse called her name and we went back to the room and Kenadie immediately started crying she new what was going to happen. We have to weight her before they can give the shot because the dose depends on how much she weighs. Kenadie is up to 13 pounds 13.4 ounces.....wowser! Anyway she cried the whole time and every time she looked at the nurse she would scream. I think that is a sign that your child has had to many shots when she knows what happens when you walk into the room :(

Just having fun with the camera and a really CUTE baby!
Mommy LOVES her baby!

FUN with Daddy!
I am going on a bear hunt, I am not afraid, I am going to catch a really cute one.......

Today was a big day for little Kenadie, she rolled over from her tummy to her back. She did it 3 times and then she had, had enough. Growing everyday!Today we also went down to Ogden to an appt. we had with a program that is put on by they State of Utah, it is a neonatal follow up program. We checked in and then Kenadie was weighed and measured and she is the 50% , on the charts.....but that is adjusting her age to her real due date. She weighs 13 pounds 4 ounces. When they took her from me to get her height and to measure her head she cried, she had real crocodile tears, it was so sad. The ladies all felt so bad but they said you would never know that she was a preemie, she is doing awesome! Next we saw an occupational therapist, he got on the floor and played with her , he said she is doing everything that a 4 month old should be, Kenadie is also doing things that a 5 month old baby does. He was very pleased and said that we don't need to work on anything, just to keep doing what we are doing. Next we saw a pediatrician she looked at Kenadie's ears, eyes, listened to her heart and lungs, checked her reflexes, She said that she looked amazing and was very happy with her. She asked us about her brain bleed when she was born and I told her she had a grade one but it was resolved when she left the NICU. The pediatrician said well I think I will have you see a neurologist next, mean while Kenadie was blowing bubbles and talking and was being so happy, a few minutes later the Pediatrician came over and said after watching Kenadie I don't want you to see a neurologist, she doesn't need it. So we left there very happy with the results. As we were sitting there waiting in between appts we saw so many babies and little toddlers that were preemies and all of them looked like they had something wrong with them, I felt very blessed and happy again with the little miracle our little Kenadie is.

Just a few more pictures (not that there is enough) on this blog but I just love them. Things have been going good so far, Kenadie has had a little cold the last week and I am so ready for it to be done, I get nervous every time I hear her cough or her voice goes raspy all I think about it RSV. Tomorrow we go for the last synagis shot this year. I will be glad when they are done with but on the other hand they have truly been helpful with keeping her healthy.
Kenadie is getting so big and is so much fun, she smiles and talks all the time, I have even managed to get a few giggles out of her, She loves to look at story books and eat her hands, her hands are ALWAYS in her mouth, I sometimes wonder if she is teething.

Grandma Lamb gave Kenadie her first haircut the other day. We cut about a half inch off the top. It is crazy to think she is 7 1/2 months and already needs a haircut.

This is the hair we cut, sorry funky picture :)I was really nervous about getting her to hold her head still so this picture explains it all. I held her head really still.....

I just have to take a minute and blog about some of the best parents/grandparents a daughter and granddaughter could ever ask for. It seems that their love for us is never ending!
Here is just a few pictures that I think are really cute.

All dressed up, my Grandma & me
Grandpa playing with me on the long days of mommy working!
And most of all thanks for teaching me the important things in life

such as texting :) LOL

Just want you both to know how important you are to us and how much we really do love you and appreciate all you do for us. And for teaching us the important things in life such as family and the gospel. We love you both!
