Anna'a Birthday!

Our special little girl turned one yerterday! We love her so much and am so happy that she can be ours. She really is just an angel. She just had her check-up today and is still in the 25th percentile for weight and 95th for height, and she can now go in her forward facing car seat!! Woohoo! Anyways, here are some pics...we kind of had two parties: one was the Saturday before her birthday with all the family (everyone was in town), and then on her actual birthday we went to the park and had food and played. Thanks to Uncle Sean for taking pictures.

Park Party!
 


She is a chicken strip woman! This girl downed two chicken strips from KFC...she really does eat more than Kenny!
 


Uncle Sean and Anna...he will probably will be mad that I put a pic of him up, but oh well!

Anna of the fire truck, she is going to be a climber...she scares me so bad!


Anna and Kenny, it was hard to get a good shot because they kept moving

The party with just us was so much fun, I really love my family!

We didn't really take many pictures at her party, everyone else did for us, so until I get some e-mails, here are a few that I did take:

She wore this cute little tiara thing, but hated it, so it only stayed on for like two minutes, but it was cute while it lasted!

Bikes, fairs, dates, friends,and birthday parties

The weather has been so good lately that Kenny always wants to go outside and ride his bike, and since we couldn't really go outside too much last year (because Anna was a newborn and it was too hot), I am definitely going to take advantage this year and play with the kids outside as much as possible! So here are a couple of pictures of the kids riding Kenny's bike.

With Kenny, it's all about safety first! He insisted on wearing his "helmet", which is really a monster's Inc. hard hat! He refused to use his pedals because last time he used his pedals outside he fell sideways into the rocks...I tried to encourage him as much as possible, but to no avail!
 


Anna has to have her turn, because anything Kenny does or wants, she needs too!
 


Right now there is a carnival at the mall, and we had to go. Kenny tried for like 10 minutes to get up this darn net. Gordon and I both thought he would get like half way and then start crying (it's kind of high), or just totally fall off of it, but he worked so hard and did it! Victory! At one point when he was half way up the thing, like four kids in a row started climbing it, and I was so scared they were going to knock him off! There was a height limit, so I'm pretty sure he was the youngest in there, and those older kids scared me!

One night we went on a double date with the parents, and Stephanie and Sarah and Jill watched the kids. Anna was a pill, but in the end she fell asleep and when we walked in this was the cutest picture, so I had to take it.


Kenny absolutely adores Jill, I love seeing them together, Jill puts up with a lot from Kenny, she really is so nice to him.


Sorry, this is a long post, but it would not be complete without some pictures from Aria's zoo party. This is Anna being thrown in the air by Gordon!


Kenny is way into African wildlife, even when we sing Old MacDonald, Kenny always chooses to have on the farm zebras ( which say, crackalackin here and there), giraffes (which say roar) and monkeys. He cracks me up! Here we are looking at the giraffes.


And of course he needed to ride the carousel...he normally is afraid of it, but this time he wanted to ride it...thank you OSO!


Yes, Kenny can be a two year old sometimes! This is him telling us no to something!

Smile Song

Kenny singing the smile song. Whenever Anna is fussing he sings this song to her...or he just tells people to start "crying and screaming", and then sings it to them.

Life

So I haven't blogged in awhile, life has been pretty normal, and pictures have all been on our phones! Anyways, nothing to interesting is happening here (totally not complaining!), Gordon's job is great, I'm doing good and the kids are wonderful. Hopefully with St Patrick's Day, Anna's Birthday, and then Easter and California coming up we can get loads of pictures and cute stories to post, but for now here are some pics of just normal life with the babes!

Kenny treats his blue bear like a baby, it is sweet, he loves playing with that bear!
 


Anna literally sticks the microphone in her mouth and starts making noises! She puts it in the right way and everything, it is the cutest thing, she is our little music woman!
 


Kenny playing with his stuffed rocket, he got a real on with our tax money and now plays with that one!
 


Anna is a big standing woman now! She cruises like crazy and can stand by herself, although when she lets go of anything to stand, she just starts laughing and sits down, she is silly!
