Hello everyone! We hope you all had an excellent rest of the summer. I, for one, am very glad Fall is here, not only is it my favorite season, but I am sick of this heat! Not that Fall arriving has changed the heat yet, it is still going to be over 100 this weekend, but at least I know there is relief around the corner! I am just going to post a bunch of random pictures from the last couple of months. Not much is new since I last posted, so if anything changes I will post again soon!


In no particular order:

This was a hot day and I was out doing yard work so I had Chris bring Kennadi out while I had the sprinklers running. She loved it.

We have taken a couple of trips to Disneyland this summer. I took Kennadi in August to meet up with some old co-workers who were down for the week. It was such a good day and Kennadi was on her best behavior the whole time even though she didn't sleep a wink all day, I was very pleased although my back hurt for days after because of holding her in a lot of the lines. It is a lot of work taking a one-year-old to a theme park alone, but well worth it! Of course I was so busy with her I didn't take many pictures, so all of the Disney pictures you see are from the next trip this month. We went with my mom, Cip, Drake, Dylan, Elizabeth (Dylan's friend), and us. It was another great day and way less crowded. We got a late start since someone (me) forgot the tickets at home and had to drive back 30 minutes to get them. Won't do that again!

Elizabeth and Dylan with Kennadi

My mom bought Drake a light stick and Kennadi an adorable mickey mouse head band with ears that lit up. But of course she did not want the head band, she didn't throw a fit, just dropped the head band off the stroller and pouted a bit while looking at Drake's stick longingly and trying to reach it. So we went and traded the headband and her face immediately lit up, she still plays with it at home and loves it.

All she wanted all day was for me to hold her, she didn't want Chris or my mom, it was tiring but she was ok after a while.


This was the only picture I got of her and my mom because this is how she acted anytime anyone else tried to hold her. Dramatic!
She played with these lights for like 20 minutes outside of the store in downtown Disney, funny how random stuff can keep kids busy.

Chris and I have lots of conversations about how much trouble we are in if she is already getting this much attitude. Apparently she is a lot like I was when she gives these looks, so she will turn out great right?!

When I took her to Disneyland in August I got her this Minnie Mouse doll as a treat for being so well behaved. She cuddles her and kisses her and puts her in the stroller and walks around, it's very cute how serious she is when she takes care of Minnie and her dolls. This is her patting Minnie's back.

Virginia gave her this snowman last Christmas and she loves it still, adorable!


More of the looks

Battalion Family Day- Kennadi loves the bounce house! Even when there were big kids being rough and she couldn't stand up she just sat there and cracked up as they bounced her.



Wearing daddy's hat before work, this is the look she gave me when I told her to give it to him because he needed to go to work.


She gave it back anyways though


Chris went to Mammoth to go backpacking with my dad in August while Kennadi and I stayed home. I painted her toe nails for the first time, she was so excited and proud she pranced around after and kept looking at them saying "pretty"


Don't know how this could be comfortable

If we let her dress herself she would look like this a lot

I straightened her hair with a blow dryer for the first time today, she looked very grown up and adorable.


Chris was working out and she was attempting to work out too. I have been trying to teach her yoga and this is her downward facing dog.
