Merry Christmas!

I know this blog has pretty much been abandoned, but I am hoping to start trying to take more pictures now that I am pretty well adjusted to my work schedule.

I saw last night that The Pioneer Woman has a new photo challenge up (Bokeh) so I decided to take a few pictures last night.  Nothing great, but it was the first time in awhile that I have used my camera for something other than just snapping a few quick pictures of Kennedy running around the house.

Here was what I got:

Pumpkin Patch- Round 2

We went back to another pumpkin patch today, this time with the whole family. This place was HUGE with the crowds to match.  Kennedy got to run around with a bunch of pumpkins and try her first taste of corn on the cob.

Then I saw sunflower seeds like this, and I was a little grossed out.

This has been a really rough week for me, but there is something that makes it all better.

Fall!

I am so excited that Fall is finally here, now if only the weather would start to cool down.

Yesterday we took Kennedy to a pumpkin patch:

There wasn't actually many pumpkins, but Kennedy when buck-wild when I let her run around the pumpkins.  I was hoping for a picture for a Halloween card, but as you can tell, that wasn't going to happen with her running all over the place:

But this one makes me smile

Birthday Party!!

My little girl is one now and Sunday it was time to celebrate!

The theme was pinwheels and with my wonderful sister's help we had over 70 handmade pinwheels to decorate with.

Before the party Ron took Kennedy around the yard to check out all the decorations:

Kennedy got to destroy her second cake in less than a week (she better not start expecting this everyday!)

Happy Birthday sweet girl, I can't believe a year has already passed! 

And thanks again Kim for all your help, your the best sister a girl could ever ask for!

Shoe Shopping

Kennedy is a pro at walking now and she really needs some real shoes instead of all the cutesy little sandals she has that she manages to pull off in about 2 seconds.  Today my sister and I took her shoe shopping and the cuteness was almost too much to handle.  What is it about these teeny tiny shoes that are so irresistible? I think you could take the ugliest shoe on earth and make it baby sized and it would be adorable.

Check out my little girl in her big girl shoes:

Work

Since I spend so much time at work I thought I would take a little picture of what I see every day.

Road Trip teaser

This has been a great summer, and I was lucky to spend part of it one a road trip with my mom and sister. I'm still trying to get used to my new daily schedule now that I am working full time, and I know the blog has been very neglected. I plan on putting up all the trip photos soon, but for now here a few that kind of sum up the trip:

Lots of driving:

Lot of animals:

and lots of acting silly:

Catching up

I know I have not really been posting on here much, but I really haven't had much time the past couple weeks to take any pictures.  I have now officially been working full time for the past 2 weeks and I am still adjusting to my new schedule.  I really like my job, but being away from Kennedy is so hard for me. I am not used to being away from her all day and just getting to spend an hour or 2 (if I'm lucky) with her before she has to go to bed.  It makes me sad just thinking about it so i am not going to right now.

The only pictures I have taken recently have been on the weekends, and just quick snapshots:

My mom bout Kennedy and silly baby wetsuit that has floaties built into it.  It is so padded that she can't even sit up in it, she just tips over!  By the time I grabbed the camera she was prety much ready to ge her out of that thing, so she has a little meltdown:



Hopefully that works, I've never posted a video before.

Sunday I went to the Hollywood Bowl for a girls night with my sis.

Kennedy just cut 5 teeth at once and has atleast one more we can see coming in.  She has been dealing really well with teething so far, but I can't say the same for her toys......

And here she is (with a little piece of the book still stuck on her chin)  I know it's not a great picture, but I am so happy to see her when I get home and spend every minute I can before she has to go to bed, so I really haven't been thinking about taking pictures lately.
