Kennedys photo shoot!:)

So one of the girls in our ward makes these amazing headbands and baby clothes and asked Kennedy if she  would model some of her new stuff for her face book page. Of course I was thrilled and said yes right away!  I LOVE how the photos turned out. If any of you are wanting baby clothes or headbands you should totally check out her page http://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=535043335#!/MandaBOWtique.. her prices are totally reasonable and all of her stuff is adorable! The photographer was also AMAZING and here is the link to her page http://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=535043335#!/C.ThielPhotography..enjoy!!

Update:)

So we have been soo busy lately and I have been terrible at blogging,,as you can tell! And sorry for not completing the 10 day challenge haha:) but it was fun while it lasted! Fall semester has started for Kelin and he is enjoying most of his classes. He is looking for an internship for this upcoming Winter semester in January, so we are praying that everything will work out with that! We are hoping to get out of the Burg for a semester ha. Kennedy is growing faster than ever and will be one years old in less then a month! Seriously time goes by so fast and I never really understood when parents would complain about their children growing up so fast until I had my own! We are becoming pretty baby hungry I am not going to lie, and I want Kennedy to have someone to play with. Kelin will be graduating in 3 semesters and so the ideal time to get prego would be August so we would have the baby a month before he graduates. Another exciting thing that I just found out is that we will be going to Chicago for Thanksgiving. We are so excited and graetful to Kelin's parents for buying us plane tickets. We are also excited because all of Kelin's brothers will also be in Chicago for Thanksgiving! It will be so much fun and we can hardly wait. Not much else is going on besides the weather. Everyday it seems to get colder, windier, and darker! In Rexburg this means its about to snow. So sad:(! Kennedy and I love our daily walks to the park. I am going to have to get some new craft ideas to occupy my time because I am going to have plenty of it in winter. I am using this blog as a journal to document our busy lives so I am going to try and be better at blogging more often. Anyways here are some recent pics of our little princess..enjoy:)

10 day you challenge: 7 wants

1. Hubby to graduate, about a year in a half left!!
2. Be settled with a cute little house
3. Loose the rest of this baby weight!
4. Be the best momma and wife I can be each day
5. Dream car: white escalade:)..one day?
6. Cherish every moment with my quickly growing baby
7. Continue to be as happy as I am:)

It was actually really hard for me to think of 7 things because I honestly have everything I have ever wanted. I have already married the man of my dreams and have the sweetest little baby. Of course their are things I am looking forward to such as, Kelin graduating, and expanding our family and stuff. I just want to cherish and savor each moment of my life because time goes so fast and I dont want to waste it wishing for things in the future. Anyways, not to much is going on! We just got back from Utah 2 weeks ago and had an absolute blast! So thankful to all the people who spoiled us and made time to see us. Kelin hasnt had to work this week so Kennedy and I have been very spoiled by seeing him the whole day every day and we absolutely loved it! Kennedy cannot get enough of her daddy and giggles whenever he is around. Its so cute! I have been busy with walking lots and doing crafts. I will post some of my recent projects I just finished. Fall semester starts back up for Kelin in 3 weeks so until then we will be partying it up enjoying him before its back to the grind. Fall is my favorite season in Rexburg because its absolutley perfect weather and all the leaves change pretty colors. I wish it lasted longer! Also halloween is coming up and I am more excited than ever because I get to dress Kennedy up and take her trick or treating. Having a baby just makes every holliday one hundered times better! So many exciting things to look forward too:)! Until then we are going to keep enjoying summer and workin on my tan!

1. My husband, daughter, and extended family
2. My Heavenly Father, Jesus Christ, and the gospel
3. The SUNSHINE (love warm weather and being tan)
4. Traveling (obviously dont get to do much of this being on a college budget but one day will travel lots.)
5. Fashion, totally and completely fascinated by it!
6. Crafts, lately I have been really into doing little craft projects here and there! I am nowhere near as good as some people but it is def becoming one of my passions.
7. Working out! Tennis, running, basketball,anything really! I just love working out and getting endorphins.
8. Spending time with and visiting the people I love. This upcoming week we will be going to Utah and will see many people I love dearly. We will get to see my mom, mother in law, sister, granparents, uncles, aunts, cousins. Haha yes lots of people:)
9. Cooking, I am always looking online for new recipes and trying new meal ideas. I have a major sweet tooth so I really like making desserts also:)!

Now I am going to spend the day playing with my beautiful baby and cleaning the house. My hunny will be working until 10 tonight so I might just have to do some deep cleaning to keep myself occupied!!

10 day you challenge:10 secrets

1. I am absolutely terrified of flying! Whenever I absolutely have to fly I will hyperventilate everytime their is any turbulance at all. Seriously, ask my hubby or sister!! I totally drive them crazy when flying.
2. I gave up going to college and getting a degree to have my baby, and I couldnt be happier! I feel like being a mommy and a house wife is the greatest job on the planet and that I am born to do it. I wake up every morning feeling like the luckiest girl on the planet!
3. I am my toughest critic and am constantly feeling like I never do good enough. Maybe this makes me a perfectionist? If I dont do something absolutely perfect then I beat myself up about it inside.
4. I have a serious sweet tooth and alot of times would take an ice cream cone over having dinner or lunch any day:)! Yes this drives my husband crazy!
5. I have a serious love for clothes and shopping! I know most girls love to shop but I think I could spend my whole day at the mall just looking at all of the styles of clothing. Even when I am just walking down the street I am always noticing what people are wearing. Most of the time I will remember what someone was wearing the day before rather then their name!
6. Sometimes after a long busy week I just need to chill on the couch with my family and crash. It is hard for me to constantly be on the go without any down time.
7. I am incredibly east going. You know those high maintiance girls that have to have everything perfect? Well I am the complete opposite. Through life experinces I have learned you just have to go with the flow. This attitude has made me who I am today.
8. My life motto is "come what may and love it" this quote was given my President Monson and I absulotely LOVE it. What a great example he is in my life. As long as you have faith in Heavenly Father and a brightness of hope everything will be ok. Life is so beautiful and should be spent being happy!
9. I am a serious home body. My husband is my perfect match because he is the same way. We would much rather be curled up together on the couch watching a good movie then being out on the town!
10. I am the happiest I have ever been in my whole life. I have the most amazing daughter and husband in the world and I feel so grateful to be blessed with them. Everyday I try to be the best I can be for them:)

I am doing this challenge to take up some spare time and also because it will make me a more consisten blogger. Often times I become bored of blogging and dont know what to write about. This will keep me entertained:) On a side note, here is a pic of my girl grocery shopping with mommy and daddy! (Yes my hubby does grocery shop with me and I love it more then anything:))

4th of July

I know we are almost in Aug but I totally spaced posting about our 4th of July weekend. We had a wonderful day starting with the Idaho Falls parade! Kennedy was a good sport and was quite entertained by all of the floats and people. After that we went shopping and had lunch. We went to our friends mom's house after and played games until the fire works. Kennedy had about had it by them so we had to leave about a minute after the fire works started. It was ok though because she was such a good little trooper the whole day I didnt mind leaving early! We even missed all of the traffic:)! Here are some pics of our great day..
at the parade!
