I thought that this would be neat to look back at a year or more from now. She really hasn't changed much in looks. She is just as beautiful now as she was at birth. I love you, Kinley!

Happy 1st Birthday, Kinley!

Happy Birthday to our precious little girl! I can't believe that you are one already! Where does the time go? You have brought so much joy to our lives. Daddy, Kaden and I love you so very much! You are walking all over the place, even bending down to pick things up and then standing back up and continuing on your way. You "talk" all time. You say mommy, daddy, baby, more, ball and even mamaw. You can be so stubborn at times. You know what you want. Kaden absolutely loves you. He is willing to help you do anything. You love him too. You will lean into people or things when you want to give kisses. It is so cute! Here are Kinley's one year pics...

Happy Birthday, baby girl!

One Year Ago Today...

I went to the hospital thinking that Kinley would be born. Little did I know that my body and Kinley had other plans. My doc had shut down the pitocin and had given me cervadil. Since this was my second child she did not think that I would need it...but obviously I did. The next morning we started the pitocin again. Here we are one year later celebrating Kinley's birth. Her party was this afternoon. We had a lot of fun! Here are some pics from our day...

What an Eventful May

May has been a crazy, but fun month. My mom, sister-in-law and I went to see Tim McGraw in concert. Then for Mother's Day weekend my mom and I headed to Chicago to shop the weekend away. We had a blast! We got there Friday evening and went to dinner and then we went to a Cirque show. It was awesome! Then all day and night Saturday we shopped. On Sunday, we ate breakfast and then headed home. My mom and I have never done anything like that before and it was much needed. I can't wait to do it again someday. Thanks, Baby for taking great care of the kids while I was gone. Below is the only pic I took of my mom and I.

May 13th was my brother's birthday. We went to dinner and then we let the kids feed the fish that were nearby. Here are the four kids with Aunt Carah. (Lexi, Kaden, Hanah, Kinley)

Love these four kids!

On Friday night we went to Pizza Hut for dinner. Kaden has had a super loose tooth for a few weeks. I told him that Uncle Chad always used to pull my teeth for me. Before I knew it, Kaden had walked up to Chad with a napkin in his hand and asked him if he would pull his tooth. Needless to say the tooth fairy made a visit to our house Friday night. Here he is with his missing tooth. It doesn't really look like one is missing because his tooth is already coming in.

Kinley's first steps

Kinley started walking the week before she turned 11 months. She is an early walker just like Kaden was. Within a day or two she was walking all over the house. Sorry that the video is sideways. I cannot get it rotated.

Zoo Trip

At the end of April my mom and I took the kids to the zoo. It was a beautiful day for a zoo trip. It was Louie the elephants birthday so we went to see him open his gifts. Here are some pics from our day.

He just had to have his face painted. I love it!

Merry go round
