Hi everyone!

First of all - election day!! We are happy that election day came and went and Michael will (soon) be able to relax a little more. At least I am. We tried to teach Kenley how to say "vote" but it didn't take.

We had a fun and relatively low key weekend. Daddy has been busy working on some wrap up election stuff so on Saturday Kenley and I headed to Bebe and Grandpa's house for some cooking and quality time. On Sunday morning, Daddy took us to the pool, which Kenley loved. Then Bebe and Grandpa watched Kenley for the afternoon!

Here are Kenley and Daddy at the dog park next to the pool. Kenley loves dogs- and will say doggie and "woof woof"! Daddy asked this weekend, "when do they stop being doggies and become just dogs?"
Here are Kenley and Grandpa Bert playing with the leaves. Kenley also says "Papa" now!



She has been a very busy and very chatty girl lately - she talks CONSTANTLY about her friend Milo from day care. "MILO!" She also talks about books, airplanes, and birds. She loves being outside, in fact this weekend when it was quite early thanks to the time change she was banging on the front door at 7am demanding "OUTSIDEEEE!" So we took her to the pool. Tonight she also was reading books with me when she suddenly pointed to her crib and said "night night." I put her in the crib and she laid down on her blankie and went to sleep! Oh, and she learned to sing the "E I E I O" part of "Old MacDonald." So she loudly joins in at that part when we sing the song. I also hear her singing it at night in her crib when she wakes up. All in all very cute, if I must say so myself!

We love Easter! We were so excited to celebrate with the whole fam this year (Bebe and Papa missed it last year), and for Kenley to actually hunt for eggs (you might remember last year's picture where we just put KK in a pile of eggs and let her "hunt" for the eggs she could reach!). Easter basket is stuffed, food ready, eggs hid...we are ready! Kenley loved her Easter basket! It had some extras from Mama, Bebe, Grandma, and Great-Grandma. Kenley was so happy she hardly noticed what was missing...(candy!). Kenley's a pro with these instruments, which she learned how to use at music class. She was so happy to have her own set! Most of all she loved her new books! Here's Kenley with Bebe and Nan. Thanks Mary and Megan for the candy and the cool glasses! But mostly the candy.... It's time for the hunt! The rainy weather made the Easter bunny improvise and hide eggs only on the front porch and lawn...but it worked out great! Kenley is a pro now! Chocolate coins t...

Why "Kenley"?

By -
Many people have been asking why we selected Kenley's name, so I thought I would post a little background. When we thought about what we wanted to name the baby, we wanted something that complimented "King" and that was unique but easy to pronounce, etc. We ideally wanted something that started with a K and that was two syllables long. We first heard the name "Kenley" from a person on one of our favorite reality TV shows, Project Runway: a fashion designer named Kenley Collins. http://kenleycollins.com/ We wouldn't say we named the baby after the designer, as she was not a very nice person on the show, but we still loved the name and decided it was perfect for our baby. Kenley is an English name and has been used for both boys and girls and also as a surname. It means "Royal Meadow" pr "the King's meadow" and is the name of a town in England (in Surrey). According to the social security website, Kenley is the 998th most popular name ...
