Daycare projects

Kelsey has been engaging her inner artist at daycare so we had to share her summer projects: toe maracas, toe bells and a toe guitar! Kelsey rocks!

Beach day at Aunt Ninas

Kelsey had so much fun today at Uncle Nick and Aunt Nina's house. She got to see Mema, Michelle and Nicky. Kelsey  went so far in the water with Daddy splashing all around. So lucky we get to do beach days with our family!

Happy 10 Months!

Happy 10 Months! Kelsey is eating all types of food by herself. She loves pork, puffs, and bread. She kept her bottle feeding a secret but now we have seen her enjoying her bottles. She is standing playing with her music table and has a serious case of stranger danger. We are still waiting for the first tooth and her to start crawling or walking but we wouldn't trade her smiles and giggles for the world.

I love DQ

Kelsey could not resist her first trip to Dairy Queen. She loves chocolate ice cream and even had sprinkles today!

Bottle time

Kelsey has been holding out on us at home. She s been feeding herself since June at daycare and now at home she is too. What a little stinker!

Happy Birthday Thomas

Such a fun time celebrating Thomas 6th birthday. Kelsey was surrounded by babes and she held her own playing with their toys and dinosaurs. Highlight of the day was Kelsey screaming in happiness while Thomas opened all his gifts (poor Ben sorry Kelsey scared you) and of course ice cream cake!

Da bears

Happy Friday from Papa bear, Momma bear and baby bear!

Lion or Lamb

Kelsey artwork from MSS. Who has the cutest lion face lol.

Stewart Dr Daycare

Kelsey had an awesome time at Aunt Dana's today with her cousins Thomas and Ryan. Thomas sang songs to Kelsey to calm her down when she got upset so cute. Kelsey also got the tour of Joyful Noise meeting all Ryan and Thomas teachers. And, shockingly Kelsey did not eat her bottles but luckily has some room to spare. She can't wait for the next time she gets to hang out with her cousins!

Italian baby

Kelsey had her first piece of garlic bread and tortellini alfredo and of course loved it. Bring on the carbs since she s a true Italian baby.

Chicken

Kelsey is getting to be so independent. She enjoyed eating pieces of chicken by herself. What a cutie.

Finger food

Look who is feeding herself. All Kelsey wanted was her puffs and teether food strip tonight.

9 month checkup

Kelsey went for her 9 month checkup and was 27.5in and 21.5 lbs. Our girl is healthy and continues to grow. She has signs of 2 teeth one about to pop through. Well see in the next few weeks what happens!

Last day of vacation

Unfortunately it was uber windy today at the beach so it was a quick trip but Mommy got to see her friends Christy and Matt and their 3 cuties. We enjoyed the day more at the pool with Grandparents La and Uncle Ricky and Nicolette. We are so sad vacation is over but had such an awesome time and are so lucky our family was all here.

Grandparents night

Kelsey enjoyed the pool and beach today. And we finished the night with dinner out with both Grandparents La and Mc. Then made a run to Duffer's for milkshakes while we watched the fireworks from our balcony. Kelsey couldn't hang for the fireworks this year.

Lots of Laughs

Kelsey had a blast again today at the beach, although Daddy was hurting after taking her out far into the waves and getting crushed by a white cap, while she was up and over laughing the entire time. Kelsey and Daddy shared a Kors ice cream cup.  Kelaey was hysterically laughing all the way up and down the boardwalk cruising in her stroller enjoying the people watching :)

Kelsey first time at the boardwalk

Kelsey first ride was on the pink flying elephant (jumping in excitement before we even got on the ride) then the balloon ferris wheel, boats with her cousins (Ryan held onto Kelsey the entire ride while Kelsey put her hand on Thomas back and steered  the boat) and finished on a big horse on the carousel. And she got to "watch the tram car" a Wildwood staple. Kelsey had such a big smile all night long!

Beach baby

Kelsey had so much fun on the beach with her cousins. She even tired herself out for a few long naps on the beach. And we finished the night with dinner completed by Grandparents La making it down to Wildwood!
