More Mattea pics 10-11 months

Here are a few more pics from May and June....

I figured I should put one of myself as I'm usually the one taking the pictures and rarely make it into any!

Mattea update - 11 months

Here are some pictures of Mattea from last month (June). She is fast approaching her 1st birthday and we can't believe how the time has flown by! She started taking steps at 10 months, and is now walking all over the place. She is a nonstop chatter box, half of which we can understand, and the other half...not so much! but that doesn't seem to bother her! She has continued to be a social butterfuly, greeting everyone she sees with a friendly "Hiiiiiii!!!" (and keeps repeating it until she is acknowledged, this is lovely when in busy places such as Walmart!). She loves to laugh and play and will imitate just about anything we do (answering the phone, fake coughs, sneezes, and the list goes on!) She is still our "big girl", weighing around 28 lbs and is about 32 inches tall (we see the Dr soon, so I will get the real numbers then!)

I'll be sure to post some updated pictures after her birthday this weekend!

Marshall is One!

I am taking the liberty of stealing some pics Chantelle uploaded to facebook and posting them here, for all the non-facebook users. I know they don't have hi-speed, so it likely took her forever to get them online, and I couldn't imagine doing THAT twice! Marshall just turned 1 at the end of May. He has a really bright and social personality. He looks a lot like Chantelle's brother, in my opinion. But he does seem to have that "intense" look in his eye, like Brent has!

Guitar Contest

Mothers Day

Happy Mothers Day to all the "Kennedy Family" Moms!

Here we are enjoying a relaxing Mothers Day at the beach. Who wants to come visit us? :-D

Marshall

Here is a cute one of Marshall! Not sure when it was taken, but he is 11 months old now! (I stole this pic off Chantelle's facebook page)

Mattea 8 months old

Ok I'm definitely behind the game. Mattea just turned 9 months old this weekend, but here are a few pictures of her from last month. She loves to play and also loves to talk (I guess she got one part Daddy and one part Mommy:-)). Instead of crawling, she butt-shuffles her way around and is pretty quick at it too! She loves to stand and hold hands to walk. She is certainly not shy as she greets even strangers with a wave and a "hhhaaaaiii" and when asked any questions she will nod yes while saying an emphatic "uh huh" (unless of course the answer is no, which would prompt violent head shaking instead). Still loves her food and hums and "dances" while in her high chair to show her enthusiasm. She also loves music and will start to dance the moment she hears it!

Oh and her stats...She is still above the 95th percentile! She weighs almost 24 lbs and is over 31 inches tall. Perhaps basketball is in her future......
