Super Cute Giveaway

Please check out Jenny's blog at http://thesemansfamily.blogspot.com/. Right now she is having this super cute giveaway of these beanie hats and I want one.....BAD!! They look like they will fit really well and keep your little one's head warm. Keep your fingers crossed that I ( I mean Kellan) wins it.

Trip to Indy

Kellan had his first airplane right this past weekend. We took a much needed trip to Indiana to visit some friends of ours. They have a little boy who is about 19 months so him and Kellan had a great time meeting each other and playing.

Let me tell you how proud of Kellan I am . He flew like a champ. Many people complimented us on what a well behaved boy he was. I'm sure many people get nervous when they find out they will be sitting next to a baby, but they got lucky.

We gave him a bottle at each take off and he seemed to have no problems. Honestly the worst part about taking a baby is going through the check points. You need to take everything out of the bags and they test things like fluids and formula. We even had to take kellan's sandles off...like he's smuggling drugs in there.

Here are some pictures from our amazing trip.

First time at the cabin

Over Memorial Day weekend we brought Kellan up to my parents cabin for the first time. He is crawling now, so he was all over the place. Unfortunately his sleeping schedule was thrown out the window once we arrived. He wouldn't nap or sleep at night. Tim actually had to put him in the car and drive around just so he would get some rest. When he wasn't super sleep deprived he did have fun on the boat.

First Time Flying with Kellan....

...and I don't have any idea what to expect. Please offer your suggestions and tips for keeping a 9 month old happy.

I've heard to give them a bottle at take off so their ears won't pop. I look forward to your help.

Updates

I'm a bit behind...who am I kidding, I'm way behind. Mother's day was amazing. Kellan got me this beautiful purse with matching wallet. (he must really love his mama)

Kellan now has 4 teeth. His top two started breaking through. They don't really seem to bother him much which is a plus.

With the weather finally warming up Kellan is able to wear shorts. Here are a few shots of his cute little legs.

We plan on going to my parents cabin on the lake for Memorial Day weekend. Of course there will be boating so we had to get Kellan a life jacket. Not so sure he thrilled about it yet.

Who is the worst blogger ever....

Yeah me, I know. No excuses, I just don't want to take the time to sit down and blog. However, Tim is gone this week and Kellan went to bed at 7:00 tonight so I have no reason not to catch you all up.

Kellan had is first birthday party a few weeks ago. His "wife", Ave turned one and here they are.

Mama and Kellan at the party

Kellan also transferred over to his big boy car seat. We chose the Graco My Ride 65. We got it on sale at Target for $130. It's like the Cadillac of all car seats. This thing is padded from top to bottom, super roomy and even has not one, but two cut holders. How can you not fall asleep in this?

In the mean time here are some other pictures of Kellan. Can't believe he'll be 8 months on Friday.

Kellan loves to clap now

Eater and More

Kellan's first Easter went great! He found his Easter basket before church and loved playing with his basket. He got to go on his first egg hunt and hit his first pinata.

Yeah, he found his basket

The basket is so fun
