Girl's trip to Peoria

Last weekend Mom, Kennedy and I packed up and headed for Peoria, picking up Kendra on the way. Cate invited us down to help her pick out her wedding dress. We had such a good time and were so excited to see Cate dressing up in all those wedding dresses. We even tried on a few bridesmaid dresses while we were there. Too bad I a so pregnant that I look pretty silly in them, but Kendra did a nice job of being the model. After the fitting, we spent a little time at Alan and Cate's house then headed out to dinner at Avanti's once Drew got in from Davenport.


"Love my Uncle Drew!"

The Happy Couple, ahhh, how cute!

Kennedy playing with the pretty baby in the mirror!

Spending some last minute quality time with Cate and Alan before we had to head out for home.

Tired Baby.

She loves her Daisy Dog. Grandma let her go for a puppy ride.
She thought it was pretty neat and so did Daisy.



Every once in a while Grandpa gets to feed Kennedy her dinner. She was sooo sleepy from skipping her afternoon nap that she almost couldn't stay awake to finish.

Yummy Yum, Kennedy, just a little more before night night.

Almost done... You can make it!
She was still opening her mouth to get another bite despite how tired the poor little girl was!

About two minutes later she was asleep on the couch.
Just a little cat nap, it was way to early for bedtime.
Don't you just love the Grandpa rail!

Ms. Personality.

Kennedy is the queen of personality. She has so many different faces and she thinks everyone of them is hilarious!


Her fake mad look.
Have been trying forever to get this one on camera and finally got it! She does this and then laughs!

Precious Angel.
Look at her sleeping on her folded hands!

So Excited and Amazed!
First time a real bow would fit in her hair.

I'm so cool!
So happy to be sitting in a bin with her toys.

Clear Lake

After our adventure in Mason City we decided to stop at Clear Lake for a walk since it was such a nice day outside. We walked up and down the lake front and decided to take a break and let Kennedy play. She loves to swing!


Look at that cool girl swing in her shades! :)

Her first trip down a slide.
She didn't really know what to think of it but liked it better when Daddy rode with her.

Daddy's Girl!

What a beautiful view.
Kennedy was getting a little sleepy.

Adventure Day...

Well it's been two weeks since I've posted, I guess we've been a little busy, but I have still been able to snap a few pictures.



Kennedy learned how to drink from a straw. She likes to drink like a big girl but she also knows that she can play in it by sucking it up and then spitting it out so we have to watch her close. :) What a big girl!

Saturday was a rainy, gloomy day and Grandma and Grandpa went to Minnesota to pick up some tractor tires. We spent the day hanging out and playing and we even got some cleaning done too.

Sunday it was a beautiful day so we decided to take an adventure to Mason City to find Daddy a new pair of shoes. We also stopped at Clear Lake for a walk when we were done.

Mommy and Kennedy.

The happy family ready for a day out.
