family pictures

Here are my favorites from our little photo shoot with the Brooks family...

All of Rick's family made it back to Michigan for a little reunion. It was the first time we had all been together since December 2005. It was a lot of fun to see everyone and be able to spend more than a day visiting. I will post more pictures from it soon, but right now I have to go tend to a crying baby. (She finally cut her first tooth yesterday, and #2 is on its way...)

success

After a little inspiration from Linz, I decided to give potty-training a real try. We started on Monday and had two accidents, Tuesday we had two more accidents, and on Wednesday NO ACCIDENTS! I am so proud of Reagan! When she fills up a chart, she gets a new book!

9 months!

My Baby is 9 months today!

So here are 9 cute pictures of my smiley baby!

At 9 months, here are a few facts about Kennedy:

She has zero teeth.
She has been crawling for 1 month and 1 day.
She consistently says "dada."
She loves bath time and tries to splash all of the water out of the tub, while also drinking it.
She tries to play with Reagan all the time, which prompts Reagan to frequently say, "No Kennedy! Don't play with the (fill in the blank)."
No one makes her laugh as hard as Reagan.
She loves all of her Grandparents.
She sleeps a fairly consistent 11-12 hour night.
Ever since she could roll over, she prefers to sleep on her face. She eventually rolls her head to the side, but wants to be on her face while falling asleep.
She is outrageously long, over the 95th percentile.
She loves to cuddle, and always puts her head on my shoulder when she is being shy.
She is absolutely adorable and lovable and the best little sister!
