Kenadi turned 2 on February 22. Can't believe how fast time is going! It seems so recent that she was born and we were going through this. I still worry about her and that something will happen, but everything shows that she is a healthy, active, sassy little girl. We love our tiny Kenadi. Funny story about Kenadi being little. Her and I went to Walmart a couple of months ago. We were in the baby aisle just looking around. A woman was looking at some baby shoes and asked me what size Kenadi wears. I told her shes a 5. She asked how old she was. When I told her she was almost 2 the lady was so surprised. She thought she was only about a year old. Thats Kenadi!
For Kenadi's birthday we kept it kind of low key. We hung out that day and played and had hot dogs for dinner (thats what she wanted!) We then took the kids to Build-a-Bear and they each got to make something. East just hung out in the stroller sleeping. Kenadi made a bunny wearing a BYU shirt (of course) and Jack made a bear with a Cars 2 shirt (of course). They had a LOT of fun doing that!
We then went home and got on webcam with my parents and Andrew's parents and she got to open her presents from them. Gotta LOVE webcam!! That was it for that day.
Saturday, Emily & Dylan, Kathy, and Adam & Arielle came up. We had cake and ice cream and had a fun time just visiting. All in all I think she had a great day!
Some little thoughts about Kenadi:
-My parents say she is JUST like me! I believe it.
-Last week in Nursery, the leader told my parents that Kenadi is a very good little girl but she does like things done her way. She was putting puzzles together with a little boy and he was doing it right so she would tell him, "No, like this!" She likes to do things HER way.
-She is definitely type A personality. I know shes only 2 but the kid is very particular about things. She FLIPS out if she gets even just a drop of water on her. She likes to sort through things and LOVES putting away the dishes.
-She has a temper! As Andrew would say, "her Latina flavor" came through. Boy, if she gets mad, she sure gets mad. Most don't believe it, but she can throw THE WORST tantrum you have ever seen. It is actually quite funny. She starts to cry so hard she falls on the floor and starts to flop around because of lack of oxygen. Yes, her lips have started to turn blue on many occasions. We are usually sitting right by her blowing in her face to try and get her to breathe. Luckily, she hasn't passed out yet.
-She LOVES her dresses! If one is laying on the ground, she'll pick it up and put it on. The other night we were on facetime with my parents and the kids and Kenadi had one of her dresses over the clothes she had been wearing that day. Even though she does that quite often it still makes me laugh.
-Her and my parents dog, Sophia, have a special relationship. They share food, tissues, Sophia licks Kenadis hands. Yeah, Kenadi has gotten quite sneaky about it now. She will share food when she thinks no one is looking and as soon as you say something Kenadi says, "Stop!" to Sophia and holds her hands up. And yes Kenadi has really shared a tissue with the dog. Kenadi needed to blow her nose so she grabbed a tissue. She wiped her nose, then Sophias, and then hers again. Writing this out makes us sound like we don't pay attention to what shes doing. We really do! She just is sneaky!
-She loves, babies, princesses, girly stuff, makeup and having her nails painted, but she also loves to play cars, and trucks and trains with Jackson! Her and Jackson usually play so well together. They also LOVE to play doctor with eachother. It's so cute.
-She also is SO SO clumsy! Our new running joke is that its a good week if we havent had to check her for concussion. She runs into walls, falls randomly, as my mom was saying if you blow on her she falls, she trips, shes tumbled down the stairs. Seriously, I am surprised we have not had to go to the ER or had any broken bones. I think we have had to hold rags on lips from more bloody lips or gums on her than we have with Jackson. Hes a boy AND older! Thats alright.
-She LOVES to cook! and Eat! I don't know where she puts it but she eats and eats. Although, she usually takes about an hour to eat a graham cracker when she has one for a snack so maybe thats part of it.
We love Kenadi! She is a lot of fun and brings a lot of laughter into our lives. Pictures will come soon.
