Birthday Fun

Today I turned 27 years old and I got to spend the day with my sweet baby girl.  I went to give Kahlan a kiss this morning and ended up with a slimy, wet tongue in my mouth . . . there is nothing better than having a child :)  Andy and I took Kahlan out for some Panera for dinner and just enjoyed the day.  This was probably one of the best birthdays I have had, not because of any special plans or gifts but because of my amazing husband and my beautiful daughter.  Here is a quick video of some of the fun that we had today.

New Videos of Kahlan

Kahlan's love for Zoe

Kahlan has been very interested in Zoe for weeks now but apparently tonight Zoe was just the funniest thing that Kahlan had ever seen.  Poor Zoe still wants Kahlan to be able to play.  I have a feeling these two will have a lot of fun.

Long time...since i posted...again

So i apologize for the long delay in between posts....again. Actually, i am not sure there are that many people reading this, but for arguments sake, lets say President Obama does. For this reason, i will be more diligent. Kahlan has now fallen deep into love with her Jump-a-roo. Dude, she is like an astronaut training for low gravity space walks. In the beginning, she enjoyed it, but now, you could really just leave her there for....ever. The face is pure delight when she gets actual air and some limited weightlessness. Last night, Kahlan was melting just before small group. Nothing was working, so we put her in the jump-a-roo. Fast forward 2 minutes, happiest baby on the block. Some other things we have noticed is the yawning. For a while now, Kahlan has been a five alarm eye rubber, BUT she now has included adult-esque yawning. This is really helpful for knowing when she is really tired. Laura has observed some rolling over, although this proved to be a fluke. She is however, accidentally rolling over, instead of not at all. Should be exciting. Thats it, gotta work.
