8 Months Today

Kellen is eight months old today. I know everyone always says how fast it goes, but I don't think you can really get it until you've lived it. So many things have happened over the past month. He went from rolling all the time to getting on this hands and knees, to the "tri-pod" position, to a crawl. He's recently found his tongue, and is obsessed with sticking it out all the time (as you can see in the picture on the left). He went from his 6-9 month clothing being big, to it being to tight, and now in 12 months. He's also become quite the chatter box. He just sings and babbles on all day long. I have noticed that he's really starting to imitate us. Just today I gave him his hairbrush to preoccupy him for a minute, and I caught him holding it up to his head, like he was trying to brush his hair! I know he's my son, but I can't help thinking "he's just so darn cute!"

Watch Out, He's on the Move

Its official, he's crawling!

Baby Dedication

We celebrated on Sunday as we dedicated our son, Kellen Christopher to the Lord. He was such a good boy! I think he loved all the attention! Many thanks to those that came out to share this special day with us! And congratulations to the other six families that also dedicated their sons and daughters that day!





The cake was delicious! Buttercream frosting, white cake with raspberry filling! Yummy!

Disney World

Kellen had a lot of firsts this week...first trip to Disney World, first airplane ride, first ride on a bus, first boat ride, first over night stay in a hotel, first bath in a real tub, and a taxi ride. Our hotel was right across the street from Downtown Disney, so we spent a lot of time shopping and walking around. He made some new friends and really enjoyed sight seeing. We spent one day at Magic Kingdom, where we met Chip and Dale, Mickey and Minnie, Sleeping Beauty, Bell, Cinderella, Buzz Lightyear, and many more!







Kellen was very excited about his crayons...



...until we took them away!

He made a new ducky friend.


First trip on a bus.



All aboard the ferry to Magic Kingdom.
