A huge step!!

Wow... 9 weeks old already... Its been a fun week!! Kennedi is really smiling and reacting to things now. She is so cute. I sat with her in my arms just a little while ago and was sticking out my tongue at her and she was watching me and then started to do the same thing. It was too cute.... Chris thought it was entertaining too, he was laughing at us. She is really starting to learn to move any way she can. She starts out on her play mat looking at everything above her and ends up on the carpet beside the play mat. I am not sure how she does it but she gets there.

Last night was a HUGE night for Kennedi!!! It was the first night that she SLEPT THROUGH THE NIGHT!! I don't mean most of the night she was asleep but I mean we put her down at 11pm and she did not wake up AT ALL until 7:45am!! SWEET!! I woke up at 6:30 and had to think about if I had gotten up in the middle of the night to feed her or not. I really thought that maybe I was just so tired that I didn't remember it. Then I thought for a minute and realized that, no, I didn't see any of my new (old) favorite show, The Fresh Prince of Bel Air. It took a few minutes to sink in and then Chris went in to check on her and make sure all was well. He came back into the room and said the blanket was over her head. But she was fine and that he was not about to move the blanket and wake her up. So I then got up and moved the blanket... like I would be able to get back to sleep if I didn't! We then realized that she had moved down in her crib. What a night!!

Conner came home from practice today and started to play with Kennedi until she spit up on him. Then he turned and called her "juice box". I did not hear him the first time so I asked him what he said and he told me.... then he added... because when you squeeze her she spits up! HA HA Leave it to Conner!

Avery had practice tonight and came home excited! He was told that he was going to be on first string defense!! Avery is proving that you do not have to be big to play football. He said the two smallest boys on the team were put on first string because they were getting into the plays and tackling. I cant wait to see him in the game Saturday. We owe him ten dollars from last weeks game, I wonder how much in the hole we will be after this weeks.

Well its time to relax a little bit, there is no school tomorrow and we are hoping to hit a pumpkin patch and corn maize....

have a great Friday!!
