Pumpkin Baby.

So a ton has happened in the last two weeks since my last post...Perhaps one of these days I'll just stop being lazy and start blogging/posting pictures on Facebook on the regular again :) One day. In my spare time. (ha)

Kadence gave away her first kiss. Yep, you heard me. Jason and I were sitting on the floor in the play room rough housing with KK. Well, more like she was rough housing with daddy. She kept crawling over the top of his face and kicking him. She crawled away a little and then turned around and charged him as fast as she could..got right up in his face..and out of no where, planted a juicy wet one right on his lips. It was the funniest and sweetest thing I've ever seen. Definitely jealous that he was the first..and only. She's yet to attempt another one!

I started obsessing about a new website called Pinterest -- and have been getting a lot of great inspiration for taking photos creatively. A great fall idea was to take a large pumpkin, carve it out and stuff it with a baby. HAHA So I did it. Not just once but twice and KK loved it. Not to mention all the attention she got because of it. We took her (and her pumpkin) and met up with her little B.F.F. Colette down at the Farmer's Market -- and surrounded her with a bunch of other pumpkins and took a ton of pictures. She was such a sport. I wasn't too happy with how they turned out and wanted a little different lighting..so I trekked her and the pumpkin down to MeeMaw's house at the end of the week and tried it out again. I must say, I like that photo shoot a little better. Still haven't found time to actually edit the pictures, but they'll be up soon!

{See FB for the first photo shoot}

This was the finale shot from the second shoot, wish she was
still in her pumpkin for this one :)











Speaking of Colette -- we've been doing quite a few play dates lately trying to get KK to interact a little more with some babies her own age. It seems like when we take her to church and leave her in the nursery that everyone loves on her so much that they never set her down -- therefore, eliminating her opportunities to play. Although last week when we picked her up, she had a huge wallop on her forehead HAHA. Colette's mommy and I just finished up their playroom this week though, so I'm looking forward to some future play time together!!!

I think the rug rat has yet ANOTHER tooth coming in -- on top, next to the other little pearly one. That brings us up to a grand total of 5 that I can see at the moment and she's not even 11 months yet! She's been taking them in stride though and it doesn't seem to affect her too much. Although, we did have a little issue with digestion a couple weeks ago..made a trip to the doctor and had a little scare with her being on the brink of dehydration. Guess the extra saliva from the teething caused quite an issue, but we got it under control. Her little bum was so raw though :(

If you click and look at this one bigger, you can
see a tiny little tooth poppin' up on the bottom. One
of many new ones :)
New foods since the last time -- she's up to #3's now! Such a big girl. She's had some pasta mixtures with big chunks in them -- an orchard mix with some chunky fruit -- and some beef rice pilaf which had some big carrot chunks. MeeMaw spoiled her with a teething biscuit..which was followed by an immediate bath. She was a hot mess for sure! She's also enjoyed some fresh broccoli, which she wanted SOOO badly until she actually got it in her mouth. Fail. She loves corn bread though and blueberry muffins :) 



Last little antidote for this update -- we were sitting on the couch the other night watching a movie and KK was doing her thing (ie getting into everything) and came across the diaper bag. Next thing we know, she has her little container of O's (what we call her round snacks) and she's somehow managed to open it and dump a good amount out all over the floor. Before I could even get up to start picking them up, she starts crawling around and cramming them into her little mouth as quickly as she can. We couldn't stop laughing at her and decided to let her "clean up" her own little mess. She's a trip!!


Till next time.
