This a real conversation that Matt and I had last night:
L: What should I be when I grow up?
M: If you want to work, you should become a librarian.
L: Why do you want me to be a librarian?
M: FREE BOOKS!
I seriously laughed forever, but he's cute isn't he?

Random Stuff
Kennedy is sick today. It seems like she is always sick, but today it is a stomach bug instead of a cold. And now I'm sick to my stomach too, but I think its from cleaning up all of Kennedy's "sick".
Anyway, she is sleeping now, and I thought "Hey, I need to blog." ... so here is a list of random things that I just thought I would put out there:
1. Yes, we got a halloween costume for Kennedy, but no - we didn't put her in it. I fully intend on dressing her up, taking pictures and then marking a post "Happy belated Halloween!" but I just haven't done it yet. I think its because I'm not really a fan of Halloween and I didn't think Kennedy was old enough to feel like she missed out quite yet... so yeah, its on my to-do list.
2. I am 100% excited about Christmas this year. This will be my first Christmas spent in Utah (weird, right?) and I am excited to just relax and be at home this year. I already have all my decorations up (including our Christmas tree and a few presents underneath) and Christmas tunes have been playing a LOT lately :) . I don't feel like I am skipping Thanksgiving (as I am often accused of) but rather that I am including it in my celebration of the Season. I really do love Thanksgiving, but I view it as an ode to Christmas rather than its own separate holiday.
3. Speaking of Thanksgiving, I am also way excited to go to Tucson for Thanksgiving! I was looking at one of my friends pictures of Tucson on facebook and it made me a little homesick. I miss all the palo verdes and palm trees. I miss the creosote. I miss the Saguaros. I miss the way the air smells... its SO much better than the air here. I miss El Molinitos, the front yards full of rocks, and even the stucco. Most of all, I miss my parents and my friends - but I am just thankful that I get to visit!
I told you it was random, but at least it was a blog, right? Pictures of Kennedy as a bumblebee are coming soon!

Someday I'll post pictures of me and Matt... but not today
Notice anything interesting about the next few photos?
Yeah, this is Kennedy's official pose. But its not just for the camera, she looks at me like this all the time, and smiles when I tip my head to mimic her. Funny, eh? She also tips her head when she sees something interesting (ie the camera)... like she's trying to explore all perspectives. She's so weird, but I love her!
Here are some bonus pictures:
ALSO, in case you are interested:
- Kennedy has shot up! well, kind of. She has grown about 2.5 inches in the last 2 months (or one of the measurements is wrong) and is now in about the 85th percentile for weight and about the 70th for height. Hooray!
- We let her "cry it out" last night and it was AWFUL. Definitely one of the hardest things I've ever had to do. She cried for just under an hour, but whined for about 30 minutes before that. That is a LONG time to listed to your baby cry. I just hope that it turns out to be helpful.
- Also, she ate a leaf today. I wouldn't have known except she threw it back up. GROoss.

Fall
We went with our friends KJ, Macie, and Eva to the corn maze today at Thanksgiving point. I had never been before, and other than being kind of cold, it was lots of fun! Eva is about 4 months older than Kennedy, but they seemed to like each other. Kennedy bounced up and down at the sight of a new friend and Eva constantly waved hello to her (it was so cute!) Here are some pictures from our day: (I realized I didn't get any pictures of KJ and Macie! Sorry guys!)
It got pretty cold, so we had to bundle up!

Go Cougs!
This is Kennedy gearing up for the game today! She's going to go watch it with Daddy while I go to the RS broadcast.
This picture cracks me up. Like father, like daughter!
