Can you believe it has been 1 year since Kenadie was born, today July 19 at 4:35 p.m. This sweet little girl entered our lives and they have never been the same. She has brought so much love and peace into my life, I love her to pieces!!! This is my sweetie just a few days after she is born, 1 lb. 15 oz.
This is my sweetie 1 year later at 15 lbs 14 ozs

We had Kenadie in her birthday suit for her cake eating moment and she seemed to like the plate- "paper cake" better than the real thing!!
She tasted a few licks but not much of a fan of cake I guess.

Not much of a fan either of the slimmy feeling on her fingers!

Ready for cake!!!!! Bring it on! (sorry kind of out of order)
We had a party at the park on Saturday for her and we must have worn her out, the picture says it all!!!
Playing with the great presents she got from her fun Grandparents, Aunts/Uncles and cousins!
Kenadie did great at opening the presents, she had no problem at all ripping out the tissue paper or ripping the presents open, she loved it!

Kenadie and daddy just waiting for us to sing
Happy Birthday to you, happy birthday to you.....

Yeah for me I turned one and made it through my first year!!!

Hope everyone had a great 4th of July!

I know we did.....

We played outside

We went to Tammy's house for the fireworks, we were a little worried what Kenadie would do but she didn't even jump or cry at them. She watched them for a while then she got bored and was tired.
Daddy and Kenadie waiting for the fireworks to start.
Our family still waiting for the fireworks to start :)

Then we went with Mindee up to the Lewiston parade and then out to the Hyrum parade.

Kenadie had a little harder time she wasn't so sure about all the noises coming from the fire trucks and old cars honking there horns.

Daddy was in the Hyrum parade so we got to see him there, Kenadie has learned to clap it is so cute to watch her clap at things, here she is clapping for daddy in the parade!

We are so tired of all the rain,And LOOKING forward to the SUNSHINE!!!

Just a "few" more pictures

Exploring something new everyday
Kenadie LOVES to be outside
This past weekend my mom, Kenadie and I took off and went down to SLC for a party/baby reunion of the Reproductive Care Center. (Invitro doc). They had Ice cream and fun games for the kids. It was fun to see all the little miracles that have been brought into this world!
This is a picture of Dr Heiner, the doc that did my invitro.
It was a fun trip down, especially the shopping before and after!

Today Kenadie and I woke up and got ready and went over to Willow Park and walked with the march of dimes/march for babies. I thought I should some how support it and figured I could handle the 5 mile walk. I was amazed and in awe when I arrived and saw so many people there is group t-shirts supporting a family member, I got a little teary and my lip quivered. As I was sitting there waiting for it all to start, my mind went back to my story with Kenadie and how many more people have had this same experience and yet some even worse.

The Mission of the march of dimes is to improve the health of babies by preventing birth defects and infant mortality. The told us today that $400,000 was raised in just Utah alone.

Kenadie was not so sure about the balloon!

Logan Regional Hospital had the starting line up which was escorted by a fire truck for the first block, we are off.....

Kenadie did great she fell asleep after the first 2 blocks and slept the whole way.....I can't believe I made it 5 miles, one thing I know.....you need good walking shoes and that I am out of shape.

I am very happy that I walked the entire 5 miles with out giving up. but I am sure glad it is over:)

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

oh so cute

Fun playing with Grandma in the warm sunny weather!

exploring new surroundings

My cute baby!

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.

Playing with Aunt Sariah.
