We Made It!!!

Kendall and I officially made it through our first week of work and Daycare!!! Woo Hoo!!! I am loving my new job and I really think that Kendall is enjoying daycare. She didn't even cry when Wayne and I dropped her off Monday, but then she cried everyday but Wednesday. Monday I called to check on her 4 times, but for the rest of the week I only called twice a day. I was pretty proud of myself! :) Anyways, she has been doing really well! They say that she cries off and on, but not that much so that's good! I have heard from a lot of people that it usually takes kids about a week to get used to the change so we will see how it goes next week! Here are a couple of pictures of Kendall on her first day of daycare!!!

Back to Work!

For those of you who haven't heard I am going back to work! I actually start tomorrow. It all happened so fast! I decided that I wanted to go back to work on Monday, I emailed my resume to a couple places, got one call back, had an interview on Friday, and then they called me Tuesday and wanted me to start immediately!!!! I interviewed babysitters for 2 days and nobody gave me a "good feeling". I decided to look into daycare even though I knew it was horribly expensive I didn't know what else to do. I actually found one right across the street that is pretty reasonable! I am so excited and I think it will be so good for Kendall. Soooo everything is in order and I am so nervous for this week. It will be so different around our house! Who knows if I will even have time to blog anymore!!!! Hopefully, but if you don't see as many as usual try to understand. :)

Great Grandparents

This last week Kendall got to meet her Great Grandma and Grandpa Barger. They live in Michigan and decided to come for a much needed visit. It was soooo great to see them! We pretty much spent the whole time catching up and eating. We like to eat. LoL The weather was perfect in Tonopah so Kendall spent the days outside with Papa and Great Grandpa Barger. It was a fight every night to get her to come inside! Great Grandma and Grandpa took her on lots of walks in her stroller which she also loved. Other than that it was just very relaxing! I miss them already!

19 Months Old

I know that I am like 2 weeks behind, but I thought I should do a 19 months post for Kendall anyways. Just to let everybody know what she is up to. She is as crazy as ever and has a huge attitude! LoL We go rounds everyday! She is at a whining stage which is driving me CRAZY! She can now say puppy, baby, mommy, daddy, no, ow, eye, and I think that's about it. I swear that she keeps trying to say juice, but I am not for sure. Oh and she says Shhhhhh....it's so cute! Even though she can say mommy, I have noticed that when she wants my attention she yells MOM! LoL She loves to read and will sit down and read her books aloud all day. She also has recently started putting her shoes on all by herself. They are always on the wrong feet, but at least she's doing it! She loves to play with the dogs and when they go crazy running around the house she cracks up. She still loves to sing and dance, but lately sometimes if I try to sing and dance with her she gets mad and sometimes even plugs her ears! Such a brat! Anyways I think that's about it. I took the pictures below this morning because her hair looked so cute!

OWIEEEE!

This morning Kendall pulled down a shelf that had her books on it. :( Poor girl! She is so tough though! She only cried for like a minute! She also has a bruise on her forehead that I didn't get in the pics.

Kendall's latest interest

She takes ALL of her clothes out of her dresser! That's it, she just takes them out! Usually she puts a shirt or a pair of shorts through her arm and walks around the house like it's her purse. LoL Here she is so proud of herself after emptying her dresser.

Labor Day Weekend 2008

This Labor Day Weekend ended up turning out very weird. Wayne's dad was racing in town, and then Wayne found out he had to work so he spent the whole weekend going back and forth from the track to home to work. Needless to say he was exhausted by Monday. He always seems to over work himself...Anyways, Friday and Saturday Kendall got to spend a lot of quality time with her cousin Kamryn. Kamryn is now walking and she was ALL OVER Kendall. LoL They were very entertaining. Kamryn would grab Kendall's shirt and when she tried to run away Kamryn would just hold on and run behing her! LoL She wanted to hug and kiss her the whole time and she had to be touching her at all times! Kendall is very into doing her own thing and she wasn't very happy about Kamryn always having to be RIGHT there, but then there were times when Kendall seemed to like it. They were in their carseats Saturday morning, right next to eachother, and Kendall decided she wanted to hold Kamryn's hand. It was the cutest thing ever! I wish I would have thought to take a picture. I did get some pictures of them standing at the fridge chatting. Kendall was going on and on about something and Kamryn was listening so intently, and then they would look at eachother and laugh! They are such funny little girls. :) Saturday afternoon we were getting ready to barbeque when Steph started saying that she wasn't feeling very well. Then Josh threw up, then Steph, and then Kendall!!!! I was totally shocked! She ended up throwing up like 4 times, but Steph was sick until like 1:30 in the morning! Right when Steph stopped throwing up Kathy started throwing up, then my dad got sick Sunday afternoon, and I started throwing up early Monday morning! It was pretty crazy! I have no idea what we caught or if we all ate something bad or what happened, but it sucked. Oh well, I guess it happens. Everyone is starting to feel much better so that is good. I made a picture pile of all the pics I took of the girls. There are some super cute ones!
