I have to say that FHE has been so awesome with my girls at this age. It's rare that they want US to plan a lesson,because they like to do it all themselves. On Monday, Chris had the lesson plan. It was on how to save money (mainly by keeping lights off and using less water,etc.) and how the girls could help! Well before we even started, Kylie had said that she had planned something for FHE too, so we needed to save some time for her. Chris let her go first, and though she has taught us many a FHE Lessons, I have to say this was the best ever! She brought a gift bag to the Kitchen table, full of secret stuff. One at a time she pulled out a random item and asked "What does this item represent in the gospel?" I was immediately impressed. She started with a candle. The other girls gave their answers and then Kylie talked about how it represents the light of Christ, and now matter how dark it is just that little bit of light helps. Then she pulled out matches and asked what they represent. She said that in order to have that light we need to have something else (the matches) and we talked about what those things would be...Holy Ghost...Keeping the Commandments...Scriptures...etc. Then she lit the candle, turned off the lights and finished pulling other objects out of the bag. She ended with 4 words that she found on blocks around the house. Faith, Hope, Charity, and JOY. It was so awesome. We could have skipped Chris' lesson (no offense Chris) but we didn't. Both lessons were needed. Kylie is such a blessing in our home and such a great teacher to me and her Sisters! She is wonderful BIGGEST SISTER. WE LOVE YOU KYLIE!

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
