Catching Up....


For those of you who have or have had children you know what I am talking about when I say we are now playing catchup! Jason and I have not done much of anything except drool over Kennedy, her every smile, her every wimper, yadda yadda yadda. We have had Nana and Grandaddy Jurey over a few times to share the love with Kennedy (and let Jason and I sleep) and also Grandma and Grandpa Gardner over a few times to share the love with Kennedy (and let Jason and I relax). We are so grateful for the visitors.


We have already taken so many pictures of Kennedy that I think she will need her own blog before long! She has had a fabulous adventure filled first week. Here is where she has been and what she has been doing. Kennedy had a touch of jaundice and was at the hospital (not admitted, but for daily blood withdrawal) from Sunday through Wednesday. Her count is down low, we did not need a heat lamp or medication. She has already been to Target for her first shopping spree (newborn clothes, because we didn't think she would be this small of a baby), she has been to Milton (to see her new house that we are moving into before Christmas), and even to the allergist (for mama's shot). We made a stop at Woodham Middle School and she saw my classroom, hung out with Ms. Emily (a co-worker of mine who has a 1 year old son named Atticus, who could be Kennedy's future husband), We have been to O'Charley's and the Pensacola La Hacienda (but no Juvenal, so it doesn't count). We stopped by briefly to see Uncle David, Aunt Tiffany (who was at work) and her cousin Kelan for a moment but Kennedy slept through the short stay. She has had a ton of visitors at the house including: Aunt Katie, Aaron, Andrea and Aubrey, Both sets of grandparents, emails (and phone call) from Auntie Audrey and Uncle Bernard, Patsy, Neil and Hannah, Justin (she loves that guy) only to name a few.


I am sure she is tired of Jason and I taking her picture, but she makes the most fabulous faces, smells the sweetest, and is so much fun to stare at. Who cares about anything else! We have been very fortunate as Kennedy averages sleeping about every 4 hours and eats every 4 as well. She isn't into crying (must be tough like her mama) and only fusses when she is having to take a sponge bath. But at least she smells fabulous and is all relaxed when we are through. Please check us out regularly as it is hard to email all the pictures to everyone.




With Love,

Jason, Jen and Kennedy (we have been waiting a long time for her to be here and it is FABULOUS!)
