it's monday. oops. again. since i rarely ever get time to post on sunday, i think i'll just call it something like "pictures from last week." i will brainstorm...
in the meantime, enjoy one last sunday seven, that isn't really seven. or sunday.
1. to start, i bring to you what we do on sundays. because SUNDAY IS MY FAVORITE DAY OF THE WEEK. and, you need to know. and, this blog is to document us and so i can write and no one has to read it or listen to my babble.
sundays are for...
+ church
+ naps [more like no morning nap for kenley {because of church} and then she only takes a 10 minute nap after church soooooo, now i just let her take a nap on me and she took a near 2 hour nap yesterday. success.]
+ facetime with family and friends
+ sometimes meeting with the missionaries
+ sometimes having friends or missionaries over for dinner
+ watching undercover boss on amazon prime and eating popcorn [you guys. undercover boss is where it's at. we wanted a sunday appropriate {read: uplifting show} to watch on sunday evenings. and i'm not into the whole sports thing on sunday. we took a shot at undercover boss. just watch an episode. i cry every single time. there are some good, good people in this world that just give when they have so little. we are so blessed. so, so blessed.]
+ sunday walks [we've been bad this winter. too cold for us or just way too busy with things and our free time is spent napping. also a necessity.]
+ not sleeping in. 9 am church. oh, and a baby for an alarm clock.
+ love. i just love everyone and everything on sundays.
+ happiness. i'm always happy on sundays. except for when i'm not, because, i'm human.
2. kenley got some new dresses for christmas. baby gap is where it's at. are you dying over that sheep dress?! grandma kendrick had to get it for her. i had my lamby and now kenley is quite obsessed with hers.
thanks santiago's and grandma/grandpa kendrick!
2. this photo is just so funny to me. i was folding laundry on the bed and kenley was just hanging out, drinking her bottle. i had to put her lamb under to prop it up a little bit. this girl is so funny.
3. one thing i hate about apartment living is that i can't wash my car anytime i want on the driveway. i used to wash my car after i got home from the gym all the time when i lived at home. now, it hardly ever gets done because i have to pay. i hate that. anyway, this is one of those "fancy" ones with the big crazy spinning sponges and the floppy ones that flop back and forth over your car. kenley was so entranced by all the commotion. she didn't like when i vacuumed the car after. sorry girl.
4. SHE'S GETTING SO BIG!! she sat in this chair while we were getting our brakes looked at last week.
5. we're still really working on this tummy time thing. she always flips onto her back, or mostly prefers just sitting and playing with her toys. she's so cautious and gentle and curious.
6. kenley also tried some of mama's green smoothie last week. she liked it! it's mostly spinach, but she most have known there was a banana in it. also, she ate it from a spoon. A SPOON! i didn't even have to try and finagle it or trick her to get it in there! 'atta girl!
7. erin had a bday.
to celebrate we...
went to lunch and baby bounce with daddy, because he flew home thursday morning rather than thursday night! he was a little bit of a fish out of water at baby bounce. it's like 40 babies + their mom/nanny, so yeah. at least there was one other dad that day. he didn't hate it. he said it's a good activity for kenley and i. and hello, former first grade teacher over here loves baby bounce. singing, nursery rhymes/poems. it's all so good.
8. i bought a bunch of material to make kenley's spring clothes. little tops, dresses, and shorts. but i only made one thing last week annnnd, i made them a wee bit too small. they don't come up over her diaper all the way. i used this pattern and adapted it a little bit, and the 0-6 looked like it would fit. 6-12 just looked so big! and she is still wearing her 3-6 months jeans and leggings and even a few 0-3 bottoms (although, i'm retiring those right now.) so, now i have some little shorts for our next baby, which steven is convinced our next, if not all, will be a girl. only time will tell. not yet.
9. when kenley takes her morning nap, i workout in the living room. unless we go running. sometimes, she doesn't sleep long enough for me to workout and eat and shower. and i need to eat before i shower so that i eat breakfast around 10.30/11 rather than noon. {i do have my smoothie after her morning feeding to tide me over.} anyway, lately she's been waking up before i have time to shower, so we resurrected the mesh feeder {she hasn't been using it as much. we're working on that pincer grasp.} and she chomps away on that while i shower and get ready. works quite nicely.
10. it's a nursing picture!! ah! but, i'm dying. how precious is that lamb hold while she's eating?! she gets so distracted when she eats. but first thing in the morning or last one at night, she actually stays focused and just eats. she'll play with my hair, which is the sweetest. i've truly enjoyed nursing this little one. it was a rough start. so glad we can continue doing it.
...that's all.
