3 Months!

Happy FREEZING COLD Tuesday!  Happy FREEZING COLD New Year!  I hope everyone's 2014 is off to a fabulous start.  My mommy and daddy keep grumbling about the weather and overall winter we are having.  I'm sick of it too!  The walls are closing in on us!

Helping daddy shovel on New Year's Eve


Yeah... this dude!

Despite her baby turning 3 months and me 19 months, my mommy told me a Keith Urban update takes precedent.  If you recall, last time we wrote she was on a mission to win tickets.  Well, she didn't win tickets... BUT, she went from having no ticket (and pouting about it) to a text message the morning of the concert telling her of an available ticket, to learning it was in row 24 on the floor, to her friend being pulled onstage and get serenaded by him, to her getting to the front row, to her enjoying the concert up close and personal, to her running her fingers through this dude's hair and touching his sweaty chest... Yep, leave it to my mommy!  She's nuts...



3 Months!
3 Months!
Can you believe my baby sister is 3 months old today?  She is getting so big and I love to play with her.  I entertain her while she's swinging, bathing, eating, and sleeping.  Mommy gets irritated when I grab her and tickle her through the crib rails when she's trying to sleep.  I'm just making sure she's covered and cozy, mommy! Sheesh!  I can't wait until she can play with me in our toy room downstairs.  I got caught trying to bring her downstairs last week...  I was pulling her chair over (with her in the chair) to the stairs when mommy came out from the bedroom and asked me what I was doing with her.  I simply replied, "downstairs."  Apparently, that was almost a disaster.  I saw no harm.
Always so bright eyed!

Yep! It happened! My first haircut.

Just a swingin'
I got my daddy's baby blues...
Lookin' pretty for my first girl party!
My shirt says it all - Sweet baby girl
Loving bath time these days.
As my mommy would say... "look at that face!"

Ain't nobody gonna steal my hat!

Who knows?  My mommy is camera happy!











I'm sure you're all wanting an ear update.  I had my followup appointment and PASSED the hearing test!  The tubes are open and in place... and doing their job.  Mommy hates when I ignore her because now she's certain I can hear.  But, I can only listen to her Keith Urban story so much!

Ummmm.... How come no one warned me about shots???  Here I thought I was going to my 2 month checkup to show the doctor how adorable I was!?!?  And bam!  The nurse comes at me like a spider monkey and poked the heck out of me.  I was ticked.  I definitely showed them how my lungs work.  Even after we got back home I would give my mommy the lip and whimper.  She kept telling me I was breaking her heart.  Well, guess what mommy?  That's what I was going for!  Anyways, I weighed 12 pounds, 9 ounces and was 24 inches long.  Off the charts for length!  I'm going to be a super model if I keep up with this height thing.  Ok, no... you're right. Perhaps a basketball or volleyball player?  Oh, who am I kidding?  Mommy says I'm only playing softball.

Well, I hope we can move back home to Illinois soon.  This Antarctica business is getting old.  Mother Nature needs to shape up or ship out.  You all keep warm.  Have a nice Super Bowl Sunday, hug your Valentine's, and pray that silly Groundhog brings us good news.  
I wonder if this guy will find his way to our house on Valentine's Day?

Love,
Blake and Kendall  XOXO
