6 months already...



How does time go by so quickly? I can't believe Miss Kenna is 6 months already! It's been such a fun 6 months with her in our family! She is such a sweet baby girl! She is a very happy baby, always smiling...I seriously think she is smiling more often than not. I took her for her 6 month appointment yesterday, and here are her stats:
*height: 25.5"...39th percentile
*weight: 15.03 oz...32nd percentile
*head: 17"...70th percentile (we seriously have big heads in our family!)
She's healthy and doing great! She is still wearing 3-6 month clothes, and probably will be for at least another month. We've started her on veggies now...she's had carrots and squash and seemed to like both. She's getting better at eating, and really wants to eat with us. She's rolling/moving around a lot. She doesn't get a ton of tummy time, due to her reflex, but she is getting more mobile. When we check on her at night, she'll be in a completely different direction than we left her in. Kenna has been experimenting with different sounds, so it's fun to listen to her "talk". Anyway, there are a few things about Kenna right now that I wanted to remember.

All my sisters and me...

Whitney, Sarah, Jordan, Dani, Sheena, Bridger, Grandma and Kenna



It is not very often that all five of us girls (my sisters and I)are all together at my grandma's anymore. On Sunday while in St. George, we were all at my grandma's (with my children, of course) while everyone else was still at Sand Hollow. We all loved having all of us together, and I think my grandma especially loved it. We went to church with Grandma and Merlin (her husband) and then took pics afterward, had dinner, and visited. It was so fun to be all together...it felt like old times, only now I have children...lol. My grandma is such an awesome and amazing lady! We all just love and adore her so much, she has done so much to help us all and is a great example to us...we are definitely blessed to have her as our grandma!

St. George...


Oh don't we love Beaver and the ginormous rocking chair?!


We went to St. George at the end of May for my cousin's wedding. It was a lot of fun to have a weekend away and it was even better to get to see all of my extended family. I had not seen a lot of my cousins, aunts and uncles in almost 7 years...ridiculous! They live in California, and apparently things just haven't worked out for us to see them. It was great to see everyone and it was fabulous that they got to meet Josh, Bridger and Kenna. One funny thing with all the fam was that they were all floored by how much Bridger looks just like my dad. At my cousin's reception, there were a lot of old family friends of my grandparents and they instantly knew who Bridger's grandpa was by his looks! Anyway, we had a great time visiting with everyone and the wedding was very nice!
While down in St. George, Josh, my dad, JD and Whitney camped in Sand Hollow. Bridger wanted to camp with them, but it's quite hot there, so we decided that maybe in a year or two he would do better with it. We were able to go up and have dinner with everyone one evening, which was fun!
Unfortunately I don't have any wedding pictures with any of my cousins, etc...I forgot my camera at the wedding stuff...hopefully I can get some pics from my family who took pictures!

Bridger's Brownies...

Bridger has been wanting to make brownies for a few days now, so I finally decided to help him make brownies today. He was super excited to make them, so we got a chair all ready for him, and started making them. I decided I wanted to get a picture of him stirring the brownies, because he looked so cute...and this is what I came back to after getting my camera...

Bet you don't want to eat any of Bridger's brownies!!! LOL

Bridger's Happenings...

Checking out a bug...



Just some random pics of my cute boy!


We had an "end of year" swim party for Bridger's preschool group at a local aquatic center. Bridger really enjoyed seeing all of his friends and I enjoyed visiting with all the mommies as well! It worked out nicely, because Tina (my neighbor in EM) just had a baby, so she stayed out of the water and took care of her baby and Kenna, while I was in the water with Bridger and Julia. Bridger and Julia were both scared and crying at first, but it didn't take them too long to warm up to it and when it was time to go, Bridger was totally sad! I didn't get any pictures at the pool, so took a couple of pictures of Bridger afterward! He was tired after, so was just chilling, eating grapes, watching a show and playing with cars...that little multi-tasker!

This cute boy is getting so big! I can't believe he is already 3 1/2...he is such a sweet and fun little boy!!


We had ice cream sandwiches and Bridger had a popcicle. He took a few licks, then decided he wanted to save it, so we put it in the freezer...he wanted me to take a picture of it!
