Kennedy’s 7 month birthday!

November 5th, 2007

Kennedy in pink overalls

Technically, this was yesterday, on the 4th.  As you can see from the picture, she is sitting up very well.  These overalls are so cute on her and she looks great in them!  (Thanks, G-Mom!)  But, that was the only time Kennedy has and will ever wear them because she’s outgrowing all her clothes.

Kennedy weighs 20 pounds and is 27 1/2 inches long.  She now has 4 teeth on the bottom (2 are clearly visible) and 2 on the top.  She still doesn’t have much hair; she never had much to begin with either.  But, the hair she does have we think will be a reddish-auburn color.  Her eyes are so blue and she also has her Daddy’s long eyelashes.

Her very first syllable was “mmmmm”, which she turned into “mmmahh mmmahhh”.  I’m declaring that her first word was Mama.  :)  She has also said “dada” and recently (um, yesterday) said “ga-ga”. Yes, she’s advanced in her speech, but in our family, she has to be quick to get a word in edgewise!
Kennedy’s favorite word is “Bubba”, which is what we took to calling Colby.  She loves to say Bubba, and Colby loves to hear her say it. She also loves to be held and hugged, and she likes to hug back and give those sweet open-mouthed kisses.  Although in this picture, it looks like Colby is holding on for dear life and she’s trying to escape!

We think she will crawl soon, because in just 2 short weeks she has gone from this position… (on tummy)

…to this position (on all fours)

Actually, there’s she’s on 3 limbs.  She does get to all 4 and then starts rocking back and forth.  What a cutie.

    It looks like you’re trying to catch up on your lack of kid posts recently. I greatly appreciate it. Those are great pictures of the kids. It seems that Colby really loves his sister. She does look great in the overalls! I made some 18-month Aggie overalls for Gillian’s baby for her 1st birthday. Maybe Kennedy can borrow them soon. :)

    Wow, Addie is a year old and is only 19 pounds 2 ounces! But she’s only in the 20th percentile. I wonder how Addie would be different if she had an older brother/sister. I guess we’ll see with the next baby how much difference a sibling makes! Kennedy looks like a very happy baby!
