The Latest...

Well I have not been a good blogger lately, and I have been even worse at taking pictures... but I so wanted to share what has been going on with us and Kenzie...

So we went to the Hoogle Zoo and she loved it, especially the Elephants, she was amazed at there size and that they were real.

She had fun watching the Monkeys, she would giggle when they would make noises and swing around.

When we got to big Cats she was just in Awe at them, I think they made her a bit nervous, but everytime we saw a new Cat she would just stare right at them, and didn't turn away until we were out of there sight.

This was a fun experience for us as parents to watch Kenzie see new things and get excited about them and just be in awe of nature. It was fun for Kenzie too, she went with some cousins and had a blast... Thanks Aunt Marci...

Easy as drinking Water...

I'm finding out that losing weight is as easy as drinking water, this is Awesome. If you want more information on this, please e-mail me. I love this and can't believe its as easy as drinking water literally... my e-mail is stbelnap@gmail.com

I can't believe she is 2 years old already!

We had a lot of family over and that was so fun, it's alway nice to celebrate with family.









She was wondering if this was really for her and didn't know what to think about the candles that wouldn't blow out.





This was my "E" for effort cake, it was my first one and well the picture tells the rest, she is such a John Deere fan right now and loves Tractors, so of course we had to have them on the cake.







She had so many cousins who wanted to make sure she opened every gift, and then they had to make sure everything was alright with them. It was so fun to have them there, she just loves her cousins.






These two are peas in a pod, Katelyn is 10days younger and was just making sure that Kenzie was able to get around on her trike, so cute. What would a John Deere cake be without a John Deere trike, she loved this gift. It was so fun to see her face and watch her ride around on it.








This was her on a real tractor for her two year pictures, which we will be mailing soon, they turned out so cute, I wanted to capture this time in her life and what she loved at this moment. Tractors it is... So grateful she is in our life and we get the honor of raising her. It is the most fun and worthwhile, happy time of our lives... Thanks Kenzie for your laughter, kisses and new words, you are my sunshine!!!

My little Farmer...

Kenzie loves horses so luckly we have good friends that would let her ride them. she thinks she is a real pro.













I thought this was such a cute picture, the horse seemed to really like her.










This is her giving the horse a hug before we go, she wasn't happy. she loves the farm and could probably live on one. but her mom can't so well just have to take visits for now.









She loves to feed the animals, one of her favorite things to do is go get the eggs and feed them to the pigs.

here she is making sure they all get one egg. and then of course she has to pet them.

She is making sure she tells the dogs goodbye too, we can't forget them... What would I do without this cute little girl, who is basically my complete opposite, I just love her and all the fun things she sees in this world. She is my sunshine everyday!

"Get Inspired"... I did.

I thought this was Amazing!!! What spirit and love comes from serving others and giving all we have to those we love... This was sent to me from my sister in-law and so glad she did...This is a True Story - you will want to turn off my music on the bottom right before playing...

A son says to his father: 'Dad, would you be willing to run a marathon with me?'
The father, despite his age and a heart disease, says 'YES'.

And they run that marathon, together.

The son asks: 'Dad, can you run another marathon with me?' Again the father says 'YES'.
They run another marathon, together.

One day the son asks his father: Dad would you please do the 'Iron Man' with me?'
(Now just in case you don't know, the 'Iron Man' is the toughest
triathlon in existence; 2.4 mile swim, then 112 mile by bike, and finally another marathon 26.2 mile running, in one stroke)

Again the father says 'YES'

Maybe this doesn't 'touch' your heart yet .. until you see this movie (watch with sound!):

Something to remember...

I thought this was such a cute idea, you can send in your favorite picture of your little one, select the colors, materials etc, then you can preview your design and they send it to you in 10 days. I can't wait to send in Kenzie's and post it, go to http://www.allpopart.com/ what a fun photo to have on her wall and have as a keepsake...

Fun ways to help keep your little one busy...

I Was reading the March issue of Parenting mag. and they had some great ideas to keep your little on busy while on the go, so I thougth I'd share some.

While driving get a cookie sheet and some fun magnets and let them create what they want, right now Kenzie loves her LeapFrog magnets with the alphebet so I'm excited to try this.

While in the mall or Store, have them see how many people they see that are wearing purple shirts, or how many people are wearing flip flops etc. Give them a paper and crayon to keep track of. Kenzie is not old enough for this one, but I think when she is, she will love this, as she is very observant and analysis alot.
