Couple of breakthroughs!

So, Kendall has had a couple of first things happen. We spent the weekend at my parents house in Magnolia. This happens often. We really love the extra help and I think my mom NONsecretly likes her being there all weekend. Kendall had her first wagon ride She was not sure what to think at first and then fell fast asleep when she realized she was being  pushed around in her personal limo :)

Then we sat in our Bumbo chair. I was just putting her in the chair to see if she liked it and she really surprised me by sitting up tall and not even drooping her head. She is one strong little girl!!!

She even liked to watch tv...this could become a problem for us if she likes lifetime movie network. We will get NOTHING done :)

This is not a first, but she just now likes her tummy time. She will stay there really long if daddy is playing with her. Otherwise, its only a few minutes at a time.

First Christmas

Here are some pics from Kendalls first Christmas. We had Christmas on Christmas Eve with my family and then headed to marble falls to hang out with the Parks family. It was a wonderful Christmas with our baby girl :)
Forgive me..I cannot figure how to rotate these pics on my moms computer. So, just turn your head sideways :)

Opening her presents :) Taking after her momma with the gift cards...I got this just in time before she dropped it.

We had a wonderful Christmas! I cannot wait to see how fun she is next year. One thing is for sure, it will be ALL about her next year. Forget our presents....she will be one spoiled rotten little girl :)

Baby Shower disguised as a Vball Party

Well...I got the best surprise ever today!!! Kate and I walked into the cafeteria fr our volleyball party and SURPRISE!!! Pink balloons, cupcakes, and a whole table full of presents.

I am pretty sure I cried :) The girls did get to have their party and very much enjoyed the food!

They also got to play a couple of games. Guess how many M&M's were in the bottle....

Over 1300!!! Then they got to do a word scramble. So fun!!!

I started running out of time for opening gifts so my kids had to help me. I tihnk that was more enjoyable for them than anything else! So much fun and I am so blessed to work at a school that has such amazing kids and parents!!! Now, all we need is Kendall!!!

Baby Shower #2!

On October 3rd, I had another wonderful baby shower! This was hosted by Tyan, Mackenzie, Emily B., Emily G., Kristi and Kate. They did a wonderful job and we had a ton of fun!

From left to right: Mackenzie, Kristi, Me, Kate, Tyan and both Emily's were not able to come but they are on the end in spirit :)

There was a wonderful set up of pictures when we walked in, the best ones were of me and Billy when we were tiny both holding a fish...mine is bigger of course!

These are a few pics of the setup! Billy even got to help carry in a present and he looks excited :)

Me and my mother in law and sister in law. They were so sweet to drive all the way down here again :)

Mom and I

Mackenzie is very talented and has a signature gift, the quilt! She made Kendall a beautiful purple quilt and I know she will just love...and it just happens to be purple!!

It was great weather outside for talking and opening gifts! We had a great time and Kendall and I are very blessed to have such wonderful friends and babies surrounding us :)
