6 Months Old!

Kenzey turned six months old yesterday. She is weighing in at just over 15 pounds and is growing like a weed (our chunky monkey). This past month she has really started to expand her diet. She loves watermelon, pickles, sweet potatoes/zucchini, and anything else she can get in her mouth. She can use a sippy cup just fine and is getting less messy when she eats. Kenzey prefers to be put to bed awake and to fall asleep on her own, although she still snuggles with me every now and then. She is still sleeping about 11 hours at night and then a good 3-4 hour nap during the day. This month Kenzey started falling asleep by herself, drank from a sippy cup, ate fruit, started sticking out her tongue and blowing raspberries, started sucking on her toes, can move her walker around, can scoot around on her back to get things, and went to the movie theater and drive-in for the first time. She had a pretty big month with her accomplishments, and she is so close to sitting up by herself. She is getting more vocal with her growling and babbling, that should be fun at church! She is still just such a happy baby with a big smile. She loves to go places and especially loves it when I wear her when we are out. She is very social and reminds me a lot of Ash. She loves to splash in the tub and is fascinated with almost all of Lyvi's toys, she tries so hard to take them and eat them! Kenzey's feet are so tiny, she still can't wear the size 1's yet. I can't get shoes to stay on her, but her canckles are huge! I am wondering if she will be small like Lyvi, except for all that chunky baby fat! She is such a fun happy baby! We love her so much!

Happy 2nd Birthday Alyvia!

 This cute spunky Little girl turned two last Monday (a week ago).
Pics from the festivities.
Presents on Sunday
 
 And she will smile here!
 She loves Dora. Her pullups have Dora on them, but she has never watched her, go figure.
 Her "yummies"
 She really is so cute!
 More presents on Monday
 She finally figured out how to rip them open!
 
 
If you ask her what Olaf says she will say "Yeah why? Stop it Sven".
 
  She loved this Tinkerbell coloring set.
 Still interested in Tinkerbell, could care less about the tunnel at this point!
 She loved it after we set it up.
 There is Olaf...
 We spent the afternoon flying kites.
 
 Kami's 3D dolphin.
 Ash's fish
 I didn't get a pic of Kaite's shark. I was trying to manhandle the toddler while wearing the baby.
More "yummies"
 So happy!
  She is so cute and we just love her to pieces! She is so smart and knows her colors, most of her shapes, and her left and right. She has finally hit an even 20 pounds and can wear a size 4 shoe. The size 4 is what all the other girls wore when they turned 1. She is such a ham and won't smile for me! She loves to read, play, and destroy things. She is such a good big sister and "helps" me with Kenzey, she likes to cover Kenzey's face with stuff. Lyvi can be a huge stinker, but she is so dang cute! I love how she just sits in her crib and plays before bed each night, and how almost every morning now I find her naked in that same crib. She has the best laugh and loves her sisters so much. She is still very much a Daddy's girl but is warming up more to mom. Lyvi will not under any condition leave her hairstyle in! She pulls everything out and then just looks like an old man with a mullet! She loves to ride her bike and swing. We have to really watch this one, she gets into a ton of mischief! Lately, she has been climbing out of her crib (and onto everything) so now she is in a toddler bed. She will come out after about 10 minutes at nap time and say "all done". She is such a good eater and loves just about everything. She loves to talk to Kyle on the phone and gets so excited to see her sisters after school. Alyvia is just a cute spunky little girl and we love her!
Love this face!
Happy Birthday Alyvia!
