Happy Halloween!

Isn't Halloween great! It gives us the chance to dress our kids up all CUTE and take pictures and go trick-or-treating! :) Well I think it's pretty great!

Hope you all have a happy and safe Halloween!

More Comparing

I realized last night that the p.j's I put Kennedy in were a pair that Tessa got for her first Christmas.. 

Kennedy at 6 weeks

Tessa at 6 1/2 months

Same exact P.J's!!

Obviously Kennedy doesn't feel them in quite as well as Tessa did.. but she was 5 months older! 

Crazy huh!?

We'll compare Halloween costumes next... unless it doesn't fit her.

Blessing

Mitch was able to bless Kennedy this past Sunday. Mitch's parents flew out and his grandparents made the trip as well. It was so nice to have some family here. Just wish we could have had more. Missed my Daddy especially. Its hard living so far from family.

We have a lot of good friends in our ward.. so the circle was big. One friend told me that right before the blessing little Kennedy reached her hand up and rested it on Mitch's forearm. How tender is that! He gave her a beautiful blessing and we enjoyed an afternoon with friends and family. :) Special weekends like this always go by too fast!

All but two of the men who stood in the circle.

Pumpkins

We love the fall! Mostly for the football. But this past week fall weather actually came to southern california so during half time (of the BYU game of course) I convinced my husband that we needed to go to the pumpkin patch. I was afraid if we waited for the end of the game it would be too cold or windy to have Kennedy out for pictures. Which seems silly in today's 93 degree weather. Yeah.. oh well we didn't miss out on much of a game. And we had a blast! :) 

Thanks for the cute dresses Karen!

3 Weeks?

What? My baby is already 3 weeks old?? How does that even happen!? UGH. This is why I don't get a darn thing done all day.. besides taking care of Tess and straightening a few things here and there (my poor husband!)  I have to eat up all the newborn baby cuddling time I have. Thank goodness I know lots of women who are having babies in the next 6 months to help me deal with the loss of littleness that comes with each day. :'(

Kennedy had a Dr. appointment yesterday. Her Doc was super impressed by her strength and let me know that there is a very good chance she will be an early crawler/walker. Which means she will seem bigger sooner! Lol I know I'm ridiculous!

As for Tessa.. well she has started having an awful lot more melt downs in one day adjusting to Kennedy. But she is soo cute with her little sister. She likes to hold her hand and give her kisses. And my personal favorite is when she just talks to her, "We're at church Kennedy! Love you Kennedy. Baby Kennedy happy. It's okay baby Kennedy, it's okay!" its soo sweet.

And of course I've been busy taking pictures! :) Loving my girls!
