12 Months

Here are the new things that Kenzie is doing:
--she is CONSTANTLY pulling up on EVERYTHING!
--she will take a few steps with her walker toy
--We have successfully switched out 1 sippy for whole milk. Today I decided to just go ahead
and switch her completley over to milk instead of going back and forth between milk and soy
formula. Hopefully all will go smoothly!
--Kenzie still will eat anything you put in front of her! She is getting a little burnt out on
Cheerios and lunch meat!
--She loves to talk but no one has figured out what it is she is saying yet!
--Naps are getting longer---but she is trying to switch to only 1 a day
--attended her first funeral

We are switching doctors so I haven't taken Kenzie in for her 1 year appt. As soon as I do I will post all her stats.

First Bday

Yesterday was Kenzie's first birthday. I must admit, it was a pretty emotional day! Clay's Uncle Dub passed away the same day as Kenzie's party and his funeral was on Kenzie's birthday. Here is a picture of Kenzie and Uncle Dub at Easter:

Today would have been Uncle Dub's 93 birthday. Rest In Peace Uncle Dub!

1st Bday Party

On Saturday we had Kenzie's birthday party! So much family got to come in town! My dad, Brenda, and Jeffrey came into town on Friday. On Saturday Jim, Betty Sue, Travis, Kaci, my Mom, Jesse, Olivia, and Jada all came to town! My Uncles, David and Mike, were working in Midland so they came over after they got off work to celebrate with us as well! We had her party at our house. Clay cooked out hamburgers and then we did present and had cake. Here are a few pics from the day:

Kenzie obviously did NOT like the bday hats!!

Kenzie waving Hi to all her guests

Not sure what we were all looking at (maybe Clay putting together the horse?) but I was BARELY hanging on to Kenzie---aka---she was almost standing COMPLETLEY by herself!

Kenzie's bday cake---made by Jillery! I was just going to give Kenzie an oversized cupcake and Jillery came up with the idea to put 4 together to make a butterfly!

I love the pure excitement/innocence in this picure!

" YUMMY CAKE!!!" I was amazed at how long it actually took for Kenzie to actually dive into the cake! She kept just sticking her fingers in the icing and licking that!
