Kenley at 6 Months

                                                                          

27" 16 lbs

Loves swings

Went to the beach for her first time and loved eating sand

Loves food and drinking water from our cups

Her favorite toy is her piano

Army crawls  and pulls herself up onto everything

likes to sleep with her leg on something-me, crib bars, her blankets

Does funny things with her tongue (Probably from teething)

Got sick for her first time

Kelly was super busy with school, working with the  women's softball team and got to travel with the football team in September. 

 We went to Seaside, OR with Kelly's family and stayed in their new "River House". It was pretty cold and rainy while we were there but we had some really nice days. It was great actually having Kelly around and getting to spend time with our little family all together.

 Her favorite toys are anything she shouldn't have

Has started crawling on hands and knees

 Really loves to pet (smack) hershey

Kelly has been super busy with football, and recently traveled with them to Colorado. I got to go to a home game with my dad which was way more fun then I expected. It was probably helpful to have him there explaining the game to me. Lets be honest..most of the time I was using the binoculars to watch Kelly on the side lines.

                                                                    

                We spent Thanksgiving with Kelly's family this year and had lots of fun enjoying the nice weather. Hersh has been having seizures lately,which makes me so sad. They are just from old age and she recovers quickly but it still scares me every time. Shes still a feisty old lady and really does pretty good, especially with all the extra "love" from Kenley.

This has been the fastest summer ever. Kelly has been crazy busy with school. He finished Organic Chemistry and did awesome and has been volunteering with football all summer. He just finished up football camp which was insane. He was gone every morning at 5am until 5-9 pm...it was hard on everyone to say the least. Hopefully this fall we will get to squeeze in a little more family time. I cant believe  that Kenley is getting so big.She rolls over back to stomach, stomach to back. Laughs and giggles, and is especially ticklish under her chin. We go swimming all the time and shes such a good little swimmer.She only naps for about 20 minutes at a time but sleeps great at night so its ok with me. She has started to notice Hershey and will "pet" her (or grab her fur) but they are cute together. Hershey gets so concerned whenever Kenley cries and likes to come check on her by sniffing and licking her. We've taken her boating a few times and shes done really good..but doesn't love the life jacket. 

Trying to scoot her way around, butt in the air

she sleeps with her arm across her eyes

 

She found her thumb this last week...not my favorite habit but she is so funny with it

sleepy after swimming

good morning

yummy Popsicles

her "mama odie" look

she reminds me of a baby hippo in this picture...this was after a massive blowout in a parking lot.

hiking to Lake Mary. Once we got up to the lake it began to rain, then really rain with the loudest thunder Ive ever heard and lightening. Then it started to hail. we were soaked by the time we got down to the car. It was a ton of fun but I felt bad Kenley. That hail hurt!
