9 Months!



Kai is 9 months old!!!

Weight 18.1 lbs 23%
Height 27.5inches 17%

Our little Kai is growing up! I can't believe he is 9 months old and will soon be 1!!! Kai is such a happy baby and has been SO easy! He is always happy and will sit and play on the floor and entertain himself. Kai is a very social baby and is constantly talking. He loves to be around people and is always smiling and talking to anyone that will play with him. He can sit up on his own and scoots around on his bum or rolls around to get to what he wants. He hasnt learned to crawl and is not at all interested in it but he LOVES to walk...holding our hands which kills my back! I never thought I would want my kids to walk early but I am kinda hoping he does so he can get around on his own without me having to walk around with him. He says "dada" and "baba" and "Ohhh." He loves to be outside and loves the water. He can wave and is learning to clap. Poor little guy has had a rough few months since we moved...about a few weeks after getting here he got a horrible cough that finally after almost 4 months and 5 doctors he was diagnosed with whopping cough. He is finally better and his cough is almost completely gone! I am so glad I chose to have my kids vaccinated...we were told our little guy would probably not be here otherwise! Get your kids vaccinated and if you are pregnant make sure you get the pertussis vaccine before you leave the hospital...Landon and I were never re-vaccinated before Kai was born and we got whopping cough and didn't know it because its not as serious in adults and passed it on to Kai! We love our baby Kai and feel so blessed to have such a sweet little guy in our family!

DISNEYLAND

We were so excited to go to Disneyland and had so much fun! I was a little nervous that Julien would be too overwhelmed and not have fun but he LOVED it and so did we! I am kinda bummed that we didn't get the best pictures because we were too busy chasing kids and having fun but here are a few. It was just a magical day!

On the tram riding to the park...Julien was SO excited!





Julien's first driver's license
...he thought he was pretty cool!
Its A Small World...Kai's favorite ride!


Julien played with the doorbell at this little house for probably 20 mins haha!

Aunt Amy bought Julien glow sticks for when it got dark, so cool!

Julien loved the boom booms!
This is the ride back to the tram. Julien lasted about 2 seconds. What a fun day!

Easter...in Cali

We were in California this year for Easter.

The Easter baskets before the kids got their hands on them

Kai loved his basket...especially the grass
Julien loved the egg hunt!

We caught Julien many times throughout the day hiding under the table eating his candy...he gave us this face every time he got caught like, what?...nothing going on under here...

California!

A few weeks ago I was trying to be all spontaneous and sneaky and surprise Landon with a trip for our anniversary! I decided that California would be the perfect place! We were in desperate need of some sunshine and I thought it would be fun to go back to Disneyland for our anniversary since we went to Disney World for our honeymoon and I have been waiting to take Julien. Of course Landon found out what we doing a few days before we left but I still get credit for trying right? We were able to stay with Amy and Kyle in Santa Monica which was so nice! I love getting to spend time with my sister and their house is just a few blocks from the beach!

At the airport ready to go!
Kai and Anabelle...best buds!

Hanging out at the beach!

Swings on the beach, hes in heaven!
