1 year already!

My how time flies! A year ago beautiful little Kendall Tamra Clement was born. Over the past year I have enjoyed seeing her grow and change. She now toddles every where she goes, almost running. She is a smiley happy baby. If you put your arms out she will come running for a hug with a smile ear to ear. When she is getting tired I'll say "Kendall you want to go night night?" She responds "nigh nigh nigh" and will rub her eyes. Last night I said "Kendall do you want ice cream" and she said "num num num", like she does when I'm getting her food. She has her teddy bear that she absolutely loves and has since she got it several months back. If she starts getting sassy I will say "Kendall where's your bear?" She'll look around and go find it and cuddle with it. When we are leaving places I tell her "say bye bye" and she will waive. She loves to laugh and boy can Coralynn get her giggling. Cora loves being a big sister and is an amazing little helper. She's always trying to figure out what sissy needs or what she's getting into. Coralynn cleaned the house last night because she wanted it to be all clean for sissy's birthday. It was so nice to wake up and have a clean house this morning. Cora was so excited to be baptized recently and she is doing her best to make good decisions. They are both growing and changing so much I hope I'm able to get on the ball and it's not another year before my next post.

This is a new bear that Grandma Barb gave Kendall and she LOVES it. She laughs and smiles when you give it to her and she even grabs it and snuggles with it.

Kendall LOVES her cereal. She can't wait to take her next bite. Yesterday we attempted a step 1 food, it was beef and broth. She made a face that showed the clear dislike for it. We thought we would try a couple bites to see if it was just a first reaction but on the 3rd bite when she gagged we decided she really didn't like it and we decided to leave it alone. Maybe sometime we'll try a fruit.

Happy Baby

So far so good! Kendall is now going to the same daycare that Cora has been at since she was 8 months old. She seems to be doing a LITTLE better about having to have Mom around all the time. She still has her moments when Grammy and Daddy get done and hand her over to Mom to take a chill pill. Sissy is still loving her TONS we usually have to tell her to back off. For the most part Kendall is still a smiley happy baby. She has determined though in most instances tummy time is not for her, she rolls onto her back and continues being a content baby. Tonight while Kendall was just chillin out on a blanket Cora, Daddy, and I played wig out and Sorry, we had so much fun. I love my family so dearly and am glad to get to spend quality time with them. We even found some time to clean up the house and put away the Christmas decorations. What a nice peaceful productive day, and now we have tomorrow to relax. Thank goodness for the Sabbath.

Watching Kendall grow and learn these last several weeks has been such a joy and such a blessing. She has sure changed a lot already. Kendall smiles when you smile at her or sometimes when she hears my voice. It is so wonderful to know that she is recognizing loved ones.
