Aren't they cute!

Kennedy's cousin, Porter, was baptized (in August) and here are a few pictures. I'm so glad we have documentation of the wonderful beast-that would be me in the gray dress.

I'm not sure Kennedy appreciated Porter having the attention. :)

A birthday party that Kennedy went to. Sorry for not posting for a really long time.

Once a track star now a basketball star....not if I have anything to do with it! :) Good thing we are having a boy. I think Kennedy likes the attention from Daddy more than playing basketball. She won't have time for basketball practice when she is at dance class.

Here is Kennedy singing "twinkle, twinkle little star." She gets a little sidetracked when her baby loses a sticker. You can hear the first part. She will sing the whole thing and then clap afterwards. Clearly Tony's daughter! :)

Uncle Chad bought a house and Kennedy was helping him measure. Please note the intense look on her face. I really think she knew what she was doing. :)

Earlier in the day on July 4th going swimming....

Kennedy will now say, "on your mark, get set, go, " and takes off running. here is a little demonstration our future track star!

4th of July was pretty tame at the Compton house. Tony lit some fireworks, but not too many. Kennedy did not like him very close to the fireworks. She would say, "No, daddy." But loved the fireworks and smoke afterwards. Here she is dragging around a cooler. Busy, Busy!

Kennedy is quite the little girl. Anytime you ask her to show you are pretty she is, she sways back and forth and says, "woo, woo." I had nothing to do with it. :) Here she is in new summer pjs that nona got for her.

We had our sonogram today and it's a boy! I will post some pictures tomorrow! We are so excited!

On Father's day, we went swimming. Kennedy is quite the swimmer. She would put her face in the water and wasn't never afraid. My little swimmer. Aunty Katie C helped out!

Kennedy being naughty and swimming.

Well, it has been so long since i have posted, i'm going to save my usual clever comments and just post pictures.

Kennedy has recently become found of fruit. Not necessarily eating it, but holding in a carrying it around like it is a friend. First she carried around 2 roma tomatoes through the store all the way home and into the house. The other day it was a cantaloupe. This time she then carried it to the living room to watch tv with it. It is quite hilarious to see how serious she is about it. The first picture is of her after I tried to carry it instead. The next one is of her and her new friend watching t.v. I guess it could be worse...

Kennedy enjoyed her time in Garden City. Grandpa took her on the swings, that have seen better days, first thing in the morning (as you can see she is in her pjs) and they discovered a turtle together. Uncle Brian and his family were there. Kennedy really enjoyed "taken care" of Porter. Clearly, whether Porter wanted it or not, Kennedy was bound and determined to show Porter how wonderful a binky can be.

The last of the Bell's finally graduated!! Last weekend Kennedy, Aunty Katie and I went to see Matt graduate from GCHS.

Last week was the 5 year celebration of Kennedy's school being open. So they had "spirit week" if you will. One day was wear your favorite costume or outfit. I didn't think Kennedy was going to wear it, but once I got it on here she didn't want to take it off. So all the way to school, in her car seat, she had on this pink tutu. If you remember this is from her 9 month pictures. I can't believe it still fit, but what a wonder elastic waists are!

Kennedy is starting to show her independence. I asked her what she wanted to wear to school and this is what we came up with. The socks kindof match. Once she remembered they had ducks (really they are baby chicks) it was all over. She had to wear them. Kennedy has also started doing cheese. I'm not sure where she picked it up, but anytime you have a camera she immediately starts smiling and says cheese. I think any sort of normal smile is forever gone.

Just doing a little reading....
