Kennedy Beginning to Roll Over and Eat Solids

(July 23, 2011) So Kennedy has begun to show signs of wanting to roll over.  We started to put objects to the side of her just out of reach so she'll lean a little more.

This is as far as she gets right now.

Hanging outside with Mom and Dad while we work in the garage and in the yard. (New front yard pictures to come).

The day has come!  July 27th, 2011.  She has no idea what's she about to experience!!  SOLID FOOD!!!  Her poor little sensitive mouth!  By the way, that cupcake on the tray is her most favorite toy.  It's a stacking cupcake and it crinkles!  She loooooves it!  It was the first toy she actually has paid attention to and played with.

I accidentally bought Oatmeal instead of Rice cereal.  After this attempt, we fed her Rice cereal.

Daddy wanted to be the one to try the first feeding.  Kennedy was more interested in eating this new thing called a vinyl bib around her neck!

Um, no!!  She did not like it, at all!

Matt finally had to hold down the bib because she wouldn't stop trying to eat it.

And this is how it ended!!!

NOT HAPPY!!!

She cracks me up!  Just relaxing in the back yard on a nice summer night!

I will never get tired of this picture.... sweet Peppe hunting for peanuts!  Love all my girls!

Our First Garden

We are so excited for our 'first' garden!!  A BIG thank you to Grammy for helping us out.  She basically gave us all the plants and seeds we planted.  Let's see if I have a slice of a Geiss thumb in me.  Also, we thank her for her knowledge.  We had no idea that you plant a tomato plant on it's side ~ who knew??

She taught us that putting grass over the top will keep the heat in (which they like supposedly)

Tomato Plant

There is a tomato plant, peas, strawberries, lemon cucumber, burpless cucumber, yellow pepper, banana pepper, zucchini and carrots!!!  I cannot wait.  I'm super excited for the carrots, lemon cucumber and regular cucumber!  Let's keep our fingers crossed we can keep everything alive ~ and keep the DOGS OUT!!!!  I have noticed that they like to eat the grass off the tops (weirdos).  Grammy also told us to watch out for the lone squirrel we have (not Kennedy) and the birds.  We are on the watch....

Our friends make fun of me because pretty much the only pictures of me are like this.  I tell them it's because I'm the one taking all the pictures and sometimes it needs to be noted that I was actually there.  It's not a pretty picture, but it's me out tending to the garden.  That is our neighbors back yard though.

Peep S'mores

I've never been a big fan of Peeps, but these look tasty!!  Think we might be having dessert tonight!!
