Block Party

Yesterday we had a neighborhood block party. We couldn't have had any better weather than we had. It has been so cold for the past couple week and be actually got some sunshine, it was the perfect day.

We always love the bounce house! We could all stay in there all day long.

We also got to decorate pumpkins.

Kellen wasn't able to decorate pumpkins with me but he was able to sit and enjoy a cookie. Actually he had lots of cookies, everytime I saw him he had a cookie in his hands. The neighbors just love my brother.

How cute is this pumpkin?!!! Hopefully we will be able to carve pumpkins this weekend at Grandma's house. Mom said that she would make me a princess pumpkin, we'll just have to wait and see!! I love my princesess!!

School Fun Fest

Last week my school had a big fun festival. Katie went with us and my Dad even came to the festival with us. We ate hot dogs and even got to have some cotton candy for dessert!!

This big slide was my favorite!! The line was the fastest of all the other rides so we spent the most time on this one.

I didn't always like the fact that I had to stand in line but I got the hang out it. I think the worker guy even caught on to my "line-cutting" he kept telling me that I had to get in the back of the line. It wasn't my fault that those kids weren't paying attention!!

Mommy and Kellen!

Kellen has finally started to say "Mama"... it's about dang time considering he's been saying "Dada" for months and it's Mom that's always been around!! Everytime Kellen says "Dada" I like to try and get him to say "Ken-dall, Ken=dall" it hasn't worked yet but someday it will.

Dad tried helping me play putt-putt, and when I did get the hole in one I didn't want that prize, I really wanted the consulation prize, so the worker gave in and gave me the yo-yo!!

Towards the end of the night Katie and I fell in love with the big obstacle course!

Katie coming down the BIG slide!

Katie and I

We had an amazing night and was lots of fun seeing all of our school friends.

Kellen walking

It's been a pretty uneventful month so far. The weather changed from warm to cold just about over night. I have enjoyed the cold weather cause that means that I get to wear my footsie jammies. But am having a hard time understanding why Mommy took my bike off the deck and put it in the garage. I always try to get her to bring it in the house so I can ride inside!!

When it's cold out Mom and I always like to bake cookies for our friends. I am very specific as to who I want to make cookies for. We always know that without a doubt the Stegman boys will always enjoy our cookies. Which is good cause it's normally Katie that I insist we make cookies for.

Kellen is getting so much bigger. I love it that he walks all around the place. I always have to make sure Mom knows when I see him walking. We have had lots of fun teaching him "tricks" like blowing kisses, high-fives, waving, clapping and sticking his tongue out!

Kellen thinks that he is hiding from the camera!

Look at those eye lashes... Mom says they are long and beautiful just like mine. We're not quite sure where we get the long eye lashes from, but I'll definitely appreciate mine when I get older.

Kellen blowing kisses!

Our "booger" (that's what Mom likes to call him) is getting so good at walking. He needs to practice so that he can go trick or treating with me in a couple weeks.

Princess Party

Today we went to a Princess Party with my friend Katie and her cousin Maycie. Everyone had to wear Princess dresses and there were tons of princess activities for us all to do.

There was a big castle that we had to walk through to get into the party, it was SOOOO big!!!
First we got all pampered and got make-up put on. I love wearing make-up!!

Then we got to make jewerly boxes and decorate them with lots of stickers!

Me and my Mommy!! I love her so much, she's the best Mommy ever!!

Next we went into the "nail salon" where I picked out bright red nail polish...

Katie picked pink polish, look at our pretty nails!!!

Then we got to decorate cookies with frosting and sprinkles, of course I picked purple frosting and LOTS of sprinkles!!

Of course I finished eating my cookie before my friends were done decorating theirs so I played around while I waited.

Then we went to the dance class and I got to dance to lots of fun songs with all the other princesses! I'm not shy at all, I just ran right out there and started dancing like crazy!!

We also went to the Princess concert. All of the Princesses were there, they all did a great job singing their favorite songs!

They all came out together for their final song!

Before we went to play BINGO we stopped and took pictures in the carriage cut-out!

It took a minute for me to get the hang of bingo but before long I won and got a really cool princess sticker holder!!

I love Katie!

We had so much fun at the Princess Party. I am so glad that Katie invited me. I don't think that I have had that much fun in so long. Anytime when I can wear a princess dress and get treated like a princess all day is a great day for me!

Can you tell my brother is teething?!!! He drools like a crazy person! He already has 8 teeth, before long he'll catch up to me and be able to eat everything (not that not having many teeth stops him from eating that much).

Mom taught him how to stick his tongue out!! That doesn't really help with all the drooling, actually it makes him drool even more!

Mom got me these footies jammies that I just love. I even wore them a couple days this summer when it was really hot... I refused to admit that I was sweating to death and wouldn't take them off.

Pictures

September has been an interesting month. My Dad decided to move back to Kansas City so that he could spend some more time with Kellen and I. We haven't gotten to see him as much as we expected but we are having a great time getting to know our Dad once again.

The weather is starting to cool down so we have been playing outside just about every afternoon. We take lots of walks around the neighborhood, I usually ride my bike... I'm getting really good at riding uphill.

I love making up my own songs and singing them as loud as possible for anyone that is willing to listen. I sing about any and everything. Mom was cooking dinner and I found her new umbrella and had to do a song and dance on the patio while I wait for dinner.

My Nana got Kellen a rocking chair for his first birthday just like the one that I got for my first birthday.

I taught Kellen how to stand up in his chair!!

Kellen attempting to enjoy an Oreo. After the birthday pictures we all know that chocolate isn't his favorite flavor. He didn't really eat the oreo, he just made a mess with it then tossed the whole cookie on the floor.

Kellen and I have been sick for a couple days so Mom was letting him run around without clothes in an attempt to lower his fever.

For the record Kellen is starting to walk around by himself. He is so stinkin' cute!! I love my brother so much!!!

Wichita Zoo

Saturday morning we went and watched Konnor play soccer.
After the game we went to the Zoo. While we were waiting for Aunt Pretty we got to feed the fish and play around outside the Zoo.

Konnor, Kourtnee, Brayden and I.

Konnor loved my stroller!! It's a good thing that I love to run from exhibit to exhibit instead of riding!!

Here is that crazy Giraffe that always climbs into the ditch and gets really close to the fence.

Grandma and all us grandkids!! We have the best Grandma ever!!

The whole clan!!
