On Thursday night, after Kensington’s “meet the teacher night” at pre-school, we loaded up and drove to Missouri to see Andrew’s folks.
My child cannot sleep or rest without this pink blanket on her head. What?!
On Friday morning, the weather was sooooo beautiful! We all decided to go play on the back deck in our pjs. Fall had arrived in Missouri :).

Smith loves to swing too
I love, love, love this boy!
What a goober! I took this picture at lunch on Saturday. He had about 8 puffs in his mouth.
Gretchen and I had planned Broderick and Kensington’s birthday palooza for about 6 months. We were going to eat at this awesome gourmet hot dog place and then head back to their house for dessert. Kensington slept through the entire dinner. She fell asleep in the car on the way there and then stayed asleep while we all ate our yummy hot dogs (I had the Philly Cheese steak Dog…so good!).
Smith was wide awake during dinner and havin’ a great time!
Still sleeping while her daddy holds her and eats his dinner.
She woke up for gifts and cake :). We were celebrating Kensington’s 2nd birthday (September 15) and Brode’s 4th (August 25).
Me and my bestie G. We were meant to be sisters :).
Aunt V came and took great care of Smith while we goofed off outside. We love you Vicki!
Gretchen took the kids down to their pond to feed the fish. Kensington has been talking about it since we left, “I feed the fishies”.

I forgot to flip this picture over :). It was a yummy cake (and you know how I love cake!).
Eating her birthday cake
I love this picture! Smith (7 months) is having a great time. Poor Sylvia (10 months)! They are going to be so close as they get older.

I'm SO envious! I want to be in Missouri too! I can't imagine many things as fun as hanging out with G-dawg and Shay Shay Shull. 🙂
Happy birthdays, Broderick and Kensington!
