Here's Kellen after his bath drying off with his new frog towel.

The escape artist

Sunday night as I was cooking dinner in the kitchen, I put Kellen in the exersaucer in the dining room. Next thing I know, Kellen is crawling to me in the kitchen. He learned how to crawl out! We are lucky he didn't fall down the stairs as we don't have a gate in the dining room.

I videotape taped him today doing it again. I'm having trouble uploading it but I'll try again tomorrow.

Hat Days

I put the white hat on Kellen because we went on a walk, and it was pretty chilly. Kellen was in the bundle me in the stroller, but I wanted something to cover his head. The white hat is sized 3-6 months, but I hadn't found a winter hat I liked yet, so it was all I had. I thought he looked pretty funny!

The Chiefs hat was on during a game that Lee and Kellen watched together.

4 teeth!

Kellen had another tooth break through this morning. We're up to 4, and I think there are two more coming in on the top. Guess it's time for me to start brushing them!

Election Day - A True Patriot

My mom came over today and wanted some pictures of Kellen in front of the Obama sign. She brought some flags, which were a nice touch.

"Don't you know the right way to hold a flag is in your mouth?"

"How many stars and stripes are there again?"

"I just got a text from the Obama campaign!"

Obama Baby

Kellen and I want to urge everyone to vote tomorrow - but only if you are voting for Barack Obama!! Ha. This picture of Kellen with his Obama sticker is from a few months back (pre-haircut). Not sure who Lee is voting for, but he'll probably say McCain just to tick me off!

Kellen and I will be doing the environmental thing and walking to our polling place tomorrow. Let's hope the line is not too long.

Puppy Love

Kellen was a puppy for his first Halloween! He went Trick or Treating at the Grandmas' houses. Lee and I both wish he were the only puppy we had...Lee especially.

The Pumpkin Patch

Working 9 to 5

Kellen and I met Lee for lunch last week. Here are some pictures of Kellen helping Dad in his office!

After lunch we stopped by Webster House, one of Lee's old projects, to show off Kellen. Here is Lee and Kellen in front of the building.

Kellen is sleeping though the night!

It only took 9 months, but it finally happened! 3 nights in a row! Not getting woken up 3 times a night has been a dream to me, since I like my sleep. I wish we had Ferberized him months ago...it was very easy.

Now I am just hoping Kellen will still be sleeping until 8 am regardless of Day Light Savings time. Then I can get up and work out before he wakes up.

My first blog post

I finally caved into the pressure and started a blog! Now if I can only figure out how to load pictures...
