Halloween 2006

AS many of you know Ryan loves stars wars. As I was thinking of what Kendric would be for Halloween I came across a costume on ebay that I thought was very suitable for him to wear. Ryan thought it was pretty cool and I am thinking yea, pretty cool!! Kendric did look in it though. Let me just say Darth Vader!!!

I had all the kids that I watch come over in their costumes so I could take a picture of them all. They all were very cute. Kendric's good friend Jonathon came as broke back mountain cowboy. just kidding Emily, but he was really cute. We did not go trick ur treating that year, but it was still fun to celebrate it.

Pumpkin patch

Kendric enjoyed going to the Pumpkin patch with his good buddy Jonathon who I watch during the week. They seemed the enjoy theirselves.

Milian visit with the great grandparents-August 2005

We took a visit to Milian where Ryan is from to visit his grandparents. We go about twice a year. We always seem to have a good time.

big 1st birthday party. Elmo is a everywhere

We had a Elmo theme birthday party,and let me tell you Elmo was everywhere. Kendric had an obession to Elmo at the time. So we went all out. We had quite a bit of family and friends there. It was a great time. Kendric sured enjoyed the cake.

4th of July-2005

Our 4th of July was pretty laid back. We just stayed around here and had our neighbors over. We hung outside for most of the day and Kendric really enjoyed that. He enjoyed plaing with the ice from the cooler. I was anxious all night because I was not sure if Kendric would sleep through all the noise, but he did. What a great a little sleeper at that time.

Christmas 2005

My parents live about 9 hours away so we dicided that flying would be the best thing at this point. Kendric was so easy right now and we did not have to buy a ticket for him.

Being that he was only 3 months old, it was a fairly easy trip. He slept most of the time. We had such a fun time and it was like a vacation for Ryan and I because my sisters and parents took over duty. They did not hear any complaints from us. It was such a joy to see everybody with our little boy and to celebrate our 2nd christmas as a married couple. That was a great year.

Football season 2005 -2006

Ok, so the people know us really well know that Ryan is a huge, I mean obessed football addict. Kendric was born at the very beginning of the season. SO the first thing Ryan bought Kendric was a football jersey, Chicago bears of course, and Ohio State. Kendric knew all about football already only being a week old.

At home as a family of three sept 2005

When we finally got home after Kendric's birth it was so surreal. I could not believe that he was here and was ours to keep. It was so wonderful to wake up to the wonderful miracle of life.

My parents came to visit right away and boy, let me tell you, they were so crazy in love with their first grandchild.

A trip to Ohio, our first family vacation, June 2005

When Kendric was about 8 months old we decided to go to ohio and fly again. It was so easy to fly when he is that young. He was at a really fun age and was doing so many cute things. Of course my sisters and parents stole the attention again, but who would'nt. We went to the zoo, which I think was more fun for Ryan and I, but I think Kendric enjoyed it. We also went to the beach waterpark, which is 10 minutes from my parents house. He really enjoyed that. It was another great visit.

Kendric arrival

I am just now starting a blog page. I have been wanting to do it for awhile now. I am now finding a little time each day to work on it.
I will start with Kendric's birth.
Kendric Evan Clark was born Sept. 4th, (10 days from my birthday) and weighed 7lbs, 5 oz and was 20 inches long.
Ryan and I were just smitten for him and could not believe that he was here.
