Cereal.... Mmmm?

At Kaelin's 4 month doctor appointment (13lbs, 11oz!) we got the go ahead to try solids. So the very same day we tried rice cereal. Kaelin wasn't too sure about it.

So we tried again and Kaelin decided she would rather eat the box!

Next, we tried oatmeal, which got somewhat of a better response

Today we tried sweet potatoes....

LADIES AND GENTLEMEN, WE HAVE A WINNER!

Happy Birthday Grandma!

We had a wonderful time visiting with you yesterday! Love you!

Thank Heaven for Little Girls!

Cause a boy would look totally ridiculous in this outfit!

The Big 2-1!

Happy 21st birthday to my baby brother! I can't believe that he is already so old and with a seven year age difference, I feel ancient!
Happy birthday bro! Live it up and have fun at Foxwoods tonight!

One Year Ago...

was the day that we found out that we were expecting! It is amazing how your life can change in a year. How do you measure a year?

In daylights, in sunsets, in midnights, in cups of coffee.
In inches, in miles, in laughter, in strife.
Five hundred, twenty-five thousand, six hundred minutes.
How do you measure a year in a life?
Measure in love

Tubby Time!

Kaelin absolutely loves her tubby time! She has learned how to splash and play and even holds onto her rubber duckie now! It is almost time to move her tub into the big tub upstairs before we need to replace the kitchen floor due to water damage!

Four Months!

Here is the latest installment of our monthly photo shoots! I can hardly believe that four months has already gone by!

Strike a pose!







And I'm spent!

Trick or Treat!

This Halloween was not very different from last Halloween surprisingly enough. We still had less than a dozen trick-or-treaters ( a whopping 3 kids!), Rocky still barked everytime anyone walked by and I was still in bed by 9:30pm.
Last year on Halloween I was very newly pregnant (we didn't even know yet!) and was totally exhausted. This year, I was again exhausted, but now from keeping up with my precious little pumpkin!
Kaelin had a wonderful Halloween! It was a beautiful day and we spent the day running errands, and even visited Daddy and Grandpa at work. Our special surprise was that Kev was able to leave the store for a little while and have lunch with us! I did unfortunately misplace my brand spankin new Coach sunglasses which were a gift from my mom for my birthday. I am soo sad about this, but praying hard to St. Anthony that they will be found!
Once we were home, Kaelin got suited up in her cute pumpkin outfit and we took a few pictures outside with the leaves!
Happy Halloween baby girl!
