Picture overload.




So I decided that I wanted to document Kinlee's 1st year, So I made her a little book she can look back on her 1st year and I have great intentions on doing it for every year. This starts from basically the most recent pictures down to when she was first born pictures.  I cant figure out how to get an exact order, so its as good as its going to get.  We love our Kinlee so much, she has been such a blessing in our lives.  We couldn't imagine life without her.  At a year old here are her measurements.
Weight:  18lbs 13oz
Height: 29 inches!
Head circumference: 17 1/2 
She is still pretty little, but she is getting SOOO big now with all the big girl food she eats and absolutely NO bottles or baby food.  A couple big things she does:
1.  She has 8 full in teeth and 2 molars that have come through and are about half way in.
2. Her favorite things include reading books, hanging with her cousins, and watching PBS :)
3.  She is perfect on walks and from the time she was little is calmed by the outside.
4. She goes to sleep at 9 (give or take)
5.  Wakes up around 10 AM (good sleeper)
6. She takes one nap and its never consistent, usually 1 to 2 hours.
7.  She LOVES dancing to music.
8.  Favorite words:  Momma, dadda, gus gus, woof woof, peek a boo, i want some, more( in sign language), thank you,  and uh-oh.
*she has said many other words here and there, but these are the ones she says all the time.
9. Favorite food:  Bananas and chicken nuggets.
10. She walks like a pro...basically runs everywhere.

Kinlee is a walker.



This was a while ago, but Kinlee started walking and she is into everything! She has a fun time moving furniture and being able to walk from one thing to another without biffing it! She is so cute when she is up walking. She is such a big girl!

New Year Goals

A little late, but I decided I would write down all my new years goals so that I don't forget them throughout the year! Also, I'm going to try my hardest to update on here how I'm doing with these goals....I have a TON but I chose the most important.
1- Teach Kinlee the best I can- spend as much time as possible cherishing every little thing she does.
2- Sign up for school (GET A's OF COURSE)
3- Make a new friend.
4- Call the friends I have more- and make time to do things with them.
5- Be a better wife by cleaning the house and cooking more.
6- Eat healthier and Lose weight DUH (dont we all have that goal)
7- Watch less TV
8- Learn to sew
9- Send cards for Birthday's and Special Occasions as well as thank yous for nice gestures.
10- Do my callings to the best of my ability.

That is what I narrowed it down to, and I'm hoping to accomplish them! Wish me luck!

Better Late than Never.....

I wasn't able to gather many photos other than just a few, so hopefully this wont bore you to death.

I think that the first thing I need to fill everyone in on is Kinlee's beautiful blessing day. Kevin was able to give her blessing and it was so precious. He makes such a great daddy. We were shown SOOO much support and we really appreciate everyone who was able to make it. It was super fun to have everyone at our house for dinner and it was the first time we had all of our families together at once. It was great. Kinlee looked SOOO beautiful. She wore a dress that my mom and I bought. (THANKS MOM) We went looking somewhere south of Salt Lake City where my uncle lives, and the first shop we went to we found exactly what we were looking for. It will be a dress I can use for all my little girls as they come :).
