For Chad's birthday this year, I cooked up a little surprise. And by 'little' I mean I had to tell him we were staying over night at the Peery Hotel because his federal discount was way better than my IHC discount.
Unfortunately and in true Beth form, I forgot the camera in the rush to get Kelsie to her Aunt Kelli's house in Sandy. Oh well. You'll just have to use your imagination. So imagine, if you will, me and Chad arriving at the Peery Hotel, eating a nice steak and salmon dinner, walking up to the Abravanel Hall instead of the Capitol Theater (oops, thanks Kelli for the correct info), watching a couple of opera's (this song was in one of them, sound familiar? Love it!) and heading back to the king size bed at the Peery without a baby for the night. And that is where your imagination should end. I mean it. THE END. Skipping forward to the next morning, Chad and I then walked around downtown and took a tour of the Beehive House. We really enjoyed ourselves and by really, I mean REALLY. I love you Kelsie, but it was kind of like the old days without ya, babe.
I worried like crazy that Kelsie wouldn't sleep the night for the Lunt's but she did. She also seemed to not care much that we weren't around either. Her cousins entertained her the whole time and she loved the attention!
And now Kelsie baby.
Here is the babe sleepin' with her arm out!
And here she is spread out!
Oh and this is how I find her every time I get her from a nap. Perpendicular from where I placed her. Today, she had flipped over onto her belly. Funny girl!
I guess I should tell you about her six month update. She now rolls both ways pretty much whenever she feels like it. I put a toy just out of her reach so she would roll towards it but instead she rolled away from it. Stubborn little fart. Just like her mama. Chad and I cracked up for a while after that. She likes to do the 'crab scoot'. While laying on her back, she pushes with her feet and moves herself back. I swear she's always going to have a bald spot.
Her weight: 18.8 lbs (95%)
Her height: 27 1/4 inches (95%)
Her head circumference: 17 1/4 inches (80%)
She babbles all day long. "Nanana's" are her favorite. She also thinks her mom is pretty freaking hilarious. I can usually get her to laugh pretty hard. She squishes up her nose and sniffs hard. The best is when her mouth is open and she does this. Hahaha. I also taught her the fishy sound. She did it for two days straight and now only does it occasionally. I'm thinking she wants to learn a new trick or it's that dang stubborn thing again.
Chad face, maybe?
First time at the pool! Screamed like crazy at first then loved it!
Don't you just love that her little toes are peaking out!
By the way, we are going un-private for a while. Chad hates logging in so we are going to try it one more time. Honestly, I hate it too. So there ya go.

She is too cute! She's so big, I can't believe it. We should get together soon so I can see her.
Haha great post. And yes that picture is a total Chad face, looks just like him. I can't believe you can even keep her swaddled still! Gaines is all over the place when I put him down, there would be none of that going on. He sleeps like a stinkbug when he does fall asleep, makes me laugh. I love the one where her chunky legs are all spread out all over the place. I want to squeeze em!
Thank-you my wife for removing the private status. I now will once again visit our blog :)
I just noticed the top picture. Looks like Kelsey is just gabbing away to her daddy. So cute.
Oh my goodness I want to munch on those thighs of hers! I can't wait to see you next weekend, we are going to have so much fun!
You are so funny. I wish you'd told us all the details. Seth would LOVE that. Just kidding. Once I told him about a talk I had with Kelli along thoes lines and he was totally grossed. "That's my sister". Was all he could say.
Glad you guys had a fun night out.
Super cute kid! Congrats on getting away for a weekend! It must be nice to have family so close. I wish we did! I love her sleeping positions. Cami is never in the same position that I leave her in :).
UMMMMM!!! All I can say about this one is I LOVE LOVE LOVE that you swaddle Kelsey So tight. I did the exact same thing with Jane, and it would always frustrate me sooo bad when she would get out of it. I actually made my own swaddle wrap that I put velcro on IT RULED.. She is super cute
