Kennedy Ellise

 

I dont have any pictures of her from the day she was born.  They are all on Jordans phone and my moms camera.

Parker LOVES holding his little sister.  And he is such a good big brother too.  She sat there and stared at him for most of the time he held her.

Paisley likes her too.  She was so excited she got to hold Kennedy's feet.

 

Happy Easter!

 Im pretty sure this one wasnt taken on easter but since it was on the camera I added it!

 They can get along well enough for a good picture.

 Some day we will teach this kid that she doesnt have to lean her head over so far.

 Egg hunting was alot more fun this year cause Pai was faster and she actually got it.

Pj was super nice to his sister and let her pick up a few that he could have just picked up real quick.  We didnt get eggs painted this year.  I boiled some and had the stuff.  We were just real busy with pulling apart the bathroom.  We did get wood letters for the baby and I repained Pjs name too. 

Happy Valentines Day!

We made cookies for Valentines day.

 While I mixed up the dough the kids stired up some fruit snacks.

 And then we cut out the cookies.

But I didnt have any heart cookie cutters and it took FOREVER to cut them out with a knife. Plus the kids couldnt really help much with that so we used star cookie cutters.

The Birthday Recap!

We went with my sister and my mom  to Discovery Gateway.  The kids had a blast.  The adult had an anxiety attack from all the kids that were there.  It was alot more fun when the school of kids left and it was alot mroe quiet! 

There was a horse. 

 and a grocery store.  They really liked picking up the food out of a truck and putting it back on the shelves.

 Parker opening his gift from mom and dad.  It was Hiro.  He has been asking for Hiro since way before christmas.  Unfortunately we found out that Hiro is hard to get and at christmas time we were having a hard time getting him.  All the ones we could find that were a reasonable price were over seas and  for some reason they were having problems shipping them to the states.  So when Jordan found a reasonably priced one for his birthday we were pretty excited.  (I never could have imagined I would be searching high and low for a toy for my child so early in his life.  And now I can understand a bit the crazy people on black friday going after that toy of the season.  Although I wont EVER do that!  EVER!!!)

 opening up his gift from Grandma and Grandpa Nelson.

 

 Its was another train.  This trains name was rusty.  Im pretty sure his uncles had more fun putting together his tracks than he did. hehehe

The birthday song.

 Blowing out the candles.

 I've made Pj a football cake for  the last three years.  This year he asked for it.  I was super happy that he would ask for  such an easy cake.  Plus he chose chocolate. mmmmmm my favorite.

I STILL cant believe I have a four year old!!

Happy Birthday Parker!!!

Today Pj is 4!!!!  I cant believe its been four years already!  I've been thinking alot about what an adventure it has been.  I remember the day we brough thim home  from the hospital and he didnt want to sleep.  Finally at 6am I woke Jordan up and told him to go get a bottle from the store.  (Which turned out to be PINK!!).

He is such an amazingly sweet little boy.  He shares his toys (for the most part).  He is VERY cautious!  He refused to actually walk until he knew he could do it.  Which ment he walked around on his knees, putting holes in all his pants till he was 15 months old!  But once he knows how to do something watch out! 

This little boy has taught his mother ALOT!  Like patience, unconditional love, how to really laugh, and what being a mother is really like (which I absolutely love, all of it!)! 

Parker is a great big brother!  Just this morning when I was in the bathroom I heard Paisley start crying.  Then I hear Pj comforting her and saying he was sorry and it was an accident. 

 

He can count all the way up to fifteen (further Im sure)  But if you ask him to he will pretend like he cant. 

When you ask him how old he is he will ask to count your fingures!\

I love you Parker!
