Avery's 1st Birthday

On Saturday, Kennedy was in invited to her friend Avery's 1st birthday pool party. She met Avery and her brother Jackson at the Little Gym. Her and Jackson were in class together this past spring, and she will be in there class again this fall. Right when we got to the party, Kennedy found their car ride-on. She loved it, and she refused to get out of it for almost the entire party. I obviously need to take my child for more rides around the block in her Radio Flyer sport coupe. She finally got into the pool for a little while, but she still went straight back to the car. For the final group pick, the car had to be included in the picture. There was no way she would have sat still for the camera otherwise! Happy 1st birthday Avery!!!! Thanks for inviting us!!!

Safari Drive Thru Zoo in Gentry, Arkansas

A couple months ago, Trent and I decided to take Kennedy to the Safari Zoo in Gentry! I was really excited about the adventure, but Trent was not enthusiastic at all. However, he sucked it up for our Sunday family outing! Kennedy seemed to enjoy a few of the animals, and a few others not so much. We started off in the goat petting area. It did not go so well because one of the goats thought that Kennedy's shirt would make a great meal. It was a pretty funny sight watching Trent tug on the corner of Kennedy's shirt hoping the goat would release it from its mouth. The goat was harmless, but the two of them were done hanging out in the goat pen. I managed to take a picture of Trent and Kennedy right before the goat made its move. It is too funny because the only thing that goat had on its mind was getting her shirt!

After exiting the goat pen, we moved on to see some other animals. There was a momma kangaroo with her baby in its pouch. I got a little worried with Kennedy and the kangaroo because she almost stepped on one of her legs. I could just picture that kangaroo jumping up and attacking one of us. They had all types of animals including lots of babies. I think that Kennedy's favorite part of the day was during the actual drive thru safari. We decided to pull a Britney Spears and let her sit in the front with us so that she could see out the windows better at the animals. She thought that her driving the car was the best part! The entire time she rotated between eating her Puffs, hitting the widows to attract the animals and driving the car. We thought the safari drive thru would never end! We were exhausted! Luckily, the ride home was more relaxing for Trent and I with her sitting back in her car seat sound asleep!

Kennedy and her entertainment!

Kennedy is entertained by the smallest things!!! I thought that these pictures were too funny not to share. This week, Kennedy decided to take all of her toys out of her box. She thought that it was more fun to play inside her box than outside of it.

Lovin' some outdoor fun!

Every time the door opens to our backyard, Kennedy makes a beeline straight into the grass. She loves being outdoors! She enjoys playing in the flowerbeds and trying to pick her mommy's flower. She gets in trouble when her little hand gets too close to those flowers. One of her new favorite toys is her bubble lawnmower. She thinks that it is the coolest thing to make the bubbles come out the side. Every time she gets them flowing out the side of her mower, she yells "bubbas" and tries to look into the hole. She gets a little frustrated while dragging the mower backyards and no bubbles come out. One time, her daddy tried to show her the correct way to push the mower, and she threw an absolute fit. She started stomping on the ground in circles closing her eyes. She was not watching where she was going during her tantrum and ran face first into the wooden fence. We got rather worried at first thinking she may have gotten really hurt. She cried some, but then she was fine only leaving a huge strawberry across her face. That is the last time daddy has messed with Kennedy and her bubble mower.
