Ryder had his first birthday a couple weeks ago. We can't believe he is a year old. He is growing so fast and is such a sweet boy. Since the pool party got rained out they had a BBQ with bubbles and toys. The kids had so much fun and it is always good to spend time with our family!
Kennedy's cousin Jacob started football this year. He is so adoreable! The players look like little bobble heads since the helmets are bigger than them. (they are 5 and 6). He is doing very good and one day would love to be an Archer Tiger like his daddy. Jake ran the ball last week and did a great job. Parker is going to start golf lessons this fall. We love spending time with them and hope to catch some GA games with them this year. Go Jacob! 
Ok. I know it has been forever since the last update. I am sorry. I will first tell you whats going on with Kennedy. Then do some updates of events that have been going on the last couple weekends. Kennedy is completely rolling over and loves it. As soon as you place her on her back she is on her tummy. She has turned into such a talker too. She loves her teething rings, which we know she is so teething. It hasn't broken through yet,but I think it will be any day. Anything you put in her hands, goes to her mouth! Kennedy has the most adoreable laugh. She is such a great baby!
Kennedy loves sitting in her bumbo seat. The first time we set her in it. She was looking all around and was very impressed with herself, that she was sitting there by herself with no one holding her. She is on the verge of rolling over. Daddy works with her everyday. She is almost there. She can't seem to get that back leg over yet. I still swaddle her at night though. That will be coming to end soon. I can't swaddle her when she can completely roll over. I am starting to break her into having her arms loose while sleeping. She naps with her arms out (in the touchdown position) but they wake her up so much when she is asleep. If anyone has any advice on how to keep baby's from moving there arms so much while they sleep, pass it along. One loud noise or fidget and she is in that freeze positon with her hands up.
Daddy has had some great bonding time with Kennedy while he has been out for summer break. She will be starting school in 2 weeks when Daddy goes back to work. She will be attending Carrington Academy starting the first of August. It is a great private school located in Windemere. We toured all day cares around and this by far is the best we have seen. Some friends in our neighborhood have children that go there and have spoken so highly of the program. It will be good for her to have interaction with other children as well. Right now we really have been spoiling her while she has been home. Mommy does work from home and has a flexible schedule, so she won't have to go to school everyday all day.
We are getting Kennedy baptized in 2 weeks. So I will definatley be posting pictures of that. I hope she behaves when we are up at the alter. She is getting to the age where she is starting to get really upset when someone she doesn't know holds her. So I am sure it is going to go over very well, when a stranger she doesn't is holding her pouring water on her head. Lord help us! But it will be well worth it for her to become a child of God!
We took our first trip with Kennedy to the beach last week. We had a great time. She was excellent. She slept the whole way down and back while mommy watched sweet home alabama. Kennedy didn't really leave the condo, but only to put her toes in the water. It was nice to get away and do some shopping.
This is my first mothers day with Kennedy. We had a great day. Since we had spent most of the day before with my family taking pictures. We went to granny and poppy's to spend the day with them. They love seeing KK and visit her usually weekly. They have shown me so many pictures of Lee when he was her age and she looks just like him. She is ate up with her daddy!
