Standing and a walking

Kendra decided to attempt standing on Christmas Day.  We all cheered her on so she decided to then take her first step that night since she had quite a few cheer leaders.  She is determined and keeps practicing standing. 

Know what I want

When I try to give Kendra a toy (when in the midst of a bunch of toys) a lot of the times she ignores me and reaches for a different one.  She definitely knows what she wants.  I don't think Aubree was this way.  I think she usually grabbed the toy I was giving her. 

Settled

So funny the little quirks of each kid.  I've noticed that Kendra settles down for bed much easier if she has something in her hand.  Same with when I change her diaper.  She is much more cooperative when I have given something to hold. 

Kendra sleeps

Kendra has been so much easier to put to sleep. When she was a baby I often feed her and set her down so she could watch us.  She'd put herself to sleep.  Now she will go to sleep easy watching us from her car seat (fully strapped in) at day care, or as soon as I sit down on the rocking chair with a blanket and a binky she lays her head down.  SO easy. 

Definitely my child

She has pick at scabs and everything.... At the moment she is picking at the dry skin on my feet while I do my makeup for church. 

Daddy

Ry was preparing for subbing for gospel doctrine (and I loved it, It's a thing I've seen my dad do a lot, just studying the scriptures) and it got me to thinking of the things I love most about Ryan. 

The things that are big plus about him.  

-Playing with the girls and interacting with and giving Kendra kisses.  I've always adored when a guy interacts with a baby. 

-On occasion when he would leave the house in his church clothes during the week to help give someone a blessing. 

-Seeing him study scriptures/talks to prepare for a talk/lesson. 

- When he does something out of the norm, without being asked. 

I will try and remember to add more but those are a couple I wanted to put down before I forget to make note of them. 

Bree making pizza

Pretending to make pizza during sacrament. Aprons & hats needed too... She wanted to tie them on Daddy, mommy, and Kendra too. We were trying SO hard not to laugh.😃 

Also another favorite saying of hers is "he mile a me" (she smile at me).
