Today Jay and I packed Kennedy up and took her to the Picture People for her first photo shoot. She slept through the first outfit and nothing we could do would make her wake up. We tried everything from wiping her face to tickling her feet. She was out. By the time we put her in her second outfit she was wide awake (and not always happy). We wanted to buy every picture they had, but ended up just getting a few. She looked adorable in all of the pictures so narrowing it down was not an easy task. We took a few as a family and tons of her. (Check out the headband I made for her in the yellow pictures.) Click here to see her professional photo shoot gallery.

Kennedy has been very busy lately. Yesterday after lots of shopping with Mommie, Kennedy had bathtime in her new bathtime. I really struggle with bathtime and I am hoping it will be easier when she can support her own head. Click here to see the latest bathtime pictures.
Today was Aunt Mere Mere’s birthday. We were supposed to meet her and Jay downtown for a birthday lunch. Jay was busy getting a 403 in Lexington, so Kennedy and I met Dori and Meredeth at the Gourmet Shop. Click here to see pictures of Meredeth’s birthday. (Kennedy wore her party outfit for Mere Mere)
Tonight, Kennedy and I met Grammy and Papa Lovett at Copper River for dinner. Papa Lovett hadn’t seen her in a while so he liked seeing how big she is getting (although he said he is ready for her to walk and talk). Jay was able to make it to Copper River when he was finished with Lexington. Click here to see pictures of Kennedy with Papa Lovett and Grammy.
Overall, we have been super busy and having a blast. Kennedy becomes more aware everyday and we are having so much fun. She has been wearing some really cute outfits lately. She is such a well dressed baby! Sleeping lately hasn’t been great. Either she sleeps like 5 hours in the swing or is up every few hours in the pack n play. Today she rolled over in the pack n play all by herself. She is growing up so quickly!
Kennedy goes to a Party!

Kennedy went to her first birthday party. It was Caroline’s 6th birthday party at the pool. Kennedy was sporting her adorable bathing suit and cover up and I actually was able to get her to take a cute paci! Click here for pictures.
More firsts for our gal

Kennedy, Jay, and I ran some errands last night before heading home for Jay to work. We were in Target when Kennedy started crying. It wasn’t time to eat and other than that she never cries. I took her to the bathroom and saw that she had a dirty diaper. I changed her and loved on her and she quit crying. When we were checking out I noticed that she had poo on her clothes. Jay and I decided it would be best just to get her home to change her since her diaper was clean. When we got home I immediatly stripped her down and fed her. She had crusty poo all over her back so I decided it was time for a real bath. She needed a good cleaning. I have uploaded those pictures into the baby gallery.
Another hmmm moment, I’m not sure if her belly button is healed yet or not. I thought it was, but when I really dig in it and look in it I can still see something that looks a little bit like a sea creature. I’m not sure if all baby’s have this or if she is just not willing to get rid of hers. Guess I’ll add calling Dr. D on my to do list today….
One of our favorite places in the world to go is Lake Greenwood. Jay and I have been itching to get back there for months. Finally yesterday after packing enough stuff to last a month, we headed out for Kennedy’s first trip to Lake Greenwood. She loved it (or at least mom and dad loved it.) Jay’s parents (Dori and Doc) were there. They enjoyed some great snuggle time with our precious little angel baby. It was so relaxing and we had such a nice time. Kennedy was a great little baby and only went through 7 outfits while we were there. (Haha).
Tomorrow’s first…. Kennedy goes to her first birthday party. Pictures to come…
Church
May 24
Kennedy went to her first church service today. She was a little angel and slept through the whole thing. I think she really enjoyed her first church service. Now we are trying to decided where and when we want to have her Baptized. That is turning out to be a difficult decision.
Clothes count for today: 7 outfits and counting UPDATE: Kennedy just pooped and peed mid-diaper change…now she has been through 8 outfits!
1. PJs from last night
2. put on a dress onsie for church
3. came home from church to change diaper… pooed and peed on mom and the outfit during diaper change
4. put on a comfy PJ for a nap… mom fed me and leaked on it 
5. put on a different PJ outfit…spit up on it and a blanket
6. put on a cute outfit to wear to publix… spit up on it
7. currently wearing another PJ outfit..gave up on Publix trip
*8. Got Dad with poop AND pee mid-diaper change…now wearing oversized onesie.
I have done at least a load of laundry every day since Kennedy’s arrival. That is one thing I was not prepared for. Lucky for me Kennedy has lots of clothes (even though she is just now starting to fit into her newborn clothes). I will be sad to have her get bigger and grow up, but I am ready for her to be able to wear some of her cute 0-3 months clothes:)
