HAPPY HAPPY BIRTHDAY KENSLEY DEAR!

Kensley turned ONE on Sept. 19th but I wanted to have her one year old picture back before I did my blog.
It has been so much fun to watch her grow the first year of her life. She is definitely Chris' child. Not only does she look like her Daddy, but she is just as social as he is. Where ever we go, she HAS to say "HI" to everyone. And she has since she was 8 months old. I love it. There's no way that I can be shy when I have her with me out in public. Here's just a few of her accomplishments of her first year:
Smiling (always my favorite)
POOping regularly - I know it's kinda gross, but in the beginning when they're going about 8 days without pooping, you're grateful when they get regular-
Cooing
Sitting
Crawling
Clapping
Dancing
LAUGHING
Saying: HI - MOM - DAD - Kylie - BYE - Kitty - Tickle - Go get it (although not very clear) -
Hot - and my least favorite...nonono
Sign language for PLEASE and ALL DONE
Blowing kisses & waving
All of these things I love to watch her learn.
Now...if we could just get her to walk so she will stop eating things off the floor, (like CAPRENTER ANTS!! remember that post? Gross...if you didn't see it, go to the beginning of my blog, it's a gross one)
KENLSEY, I LOVE YOU and my life would not be complete with out you in it. You complete our family, like the cherry on top of an ice cream sunday! You are the sweetest baby and always SO HAPPY! May Heavenly Father continue to bless you as you grow in this life. I know he has blessed me by letting me be your Mother! 123 Always

So CUTE! We can't wait to see her (and everyone else). It is so sad that none of the kids even know us :( since we are so far away. We love you guys!

Happy birthday, Kensley! The world is a better place since you entered it. You are so loved by many.

Kirstin, your reflections of the past year are so sweet. You are such a good mommy. Your babies know right away that you cherish them. Knowing that gives them a sense of their divinity.
