Tulip Festival Visit 2...

Oh my...isn't that just adorable...

It was way too cold for Miss Kenna, so here is pretty much the only pic of her, we didn't dare get her out of her carseat!








We've been wanting to take Josh's grandma to the Gardens and Tulip Festival for a while now, and it finally happened this past week. We met up at the gardens with Josh's parents and his grandma, had a yummy dinner (thanks Kayley for the Subway sandwiches!), and headed over to the gardens. It was a bit windy, overcast, and cooler, but it was not too bad and it wasn't very crowded, which was nice! We had a great time, and really enjoyed seeing all the different flowers again! This time I was able to enjoy the flowers more, since I had more help with the kiddos...yea for that! There are so many beautiful flowers there...there are something like 1100 varieties of tulips and Thanksgiving Point has 900-something of them there! So, it's very fun to see all the varieties! It is also giving me some ideas for my future flowerbeds! Anyway, we had a great time with everyone, and Bridger especially loved all the attention!

Tulip Festival Visit 1...






We went to the Tulip Festival at Thanksgiving Point with my friend Jen and her two kiddos. It was quite the experience...we are both still getting used to having two kids (her baby is 2 months older than Kenna) and it was super crowded that day. However, even though it was a bit crazy at times, we had a great time and it was so nice to get out and enjoy the warm weather and beautiful flowers. The tulip festival was way better than last year...last year the weather was so yucky the flowers didn't bloom like they should have. If you have not ever been to the gardens, I highly reccommend it...they are beautiful!

Hmm...



Apparently Josh is rubbing off on Bridger...this is how he came downstairs one night...and yes, he did it to himself!

Our soon to be new home...


Okay, I just thought I would throw a picture out there of what our new home looks like. As you can maybe tell from the picture, it is missing a shingle on the roof that we will be replacing ASAP. It also needs a major yard overhaul...so that will be a fun project this summer. We are super excited to move in, even though the house needs a bit of TLC (it's not as bad as our townhouse was!). We will now have 3 bedrooms, with the possibility of 5 when we finish the basement...woo-hoo for getting Kenna out of our room...love the girl, but it's so hard keeping it super quiet when we go in and out of our room. The house felt like the right house and the right location for us, and we are sure we will be very happy with it! When we get moved in and get some rooms painted, etc, I will put up more pics! We close on b0th places on May 12, then have 72 hours to be out of the townhouse, so that will be a very busy 3 days!!

4 months already...





She is officially a finger sucker! She won't hardly take a binky now! The finger sucking is cute now...we'll see how it is going when she's 2 or 3!

I cannot believe Kenna is already 4 months old! Time has flown by so quickly! She is getting cuter and cuter every day and is more and more fun! She had her 4 month checkup yesterday, so here are her stats:

Weight: 12 lbs 3 oz (19th percentile)
Height: 24 inches (39th percentile)
Head: 16 1/4 inches (59th percentile)

So, yes, she is tiny and has a big head! The doctor said that most babies her age weigh around 13 pounds, so she's a little small, but he said she is just petite. I do need to try to get her to eat a bit more, because I told him how much she was eating and he said she should eat a bit more, but he's not concerned. She's doing well! She sleeps from about 8 at night until 7 or 8 in the morning, so no complaints there! She smiles all the time and is interacting with us a lot! We love our Miss Kenna!
