Kaida is 6 months!

I can't believe Kaida is already 6 months. She is 13lbs 11oz and 26 inches. She loves watching her big sister. It is so cute to watch her hold her own bottle. But when she drops it, she is extremely mad.
We went to Utah for my cousin Monty's wedding. Ridlee was so cute she was commentating the wedding ceremony. When the bride walked down the isle she said "Look, Monty married a princess." The first time Kaida ate baby food Ridlee fed it to her. They both did so good. Love my girls!

The girls

I took these pictures of the girls the other day. Ridlee had a lot of fun even though in the one picture she looks so bored.

August

August has been a very busy month. Kaida turned 5 months old. We had 2 family reunions. And it feels like we are always on the go.

Kaida's sad face. This is what we see a lot.

The girls. Ridlee loves to hold her sister.

Kaida is 4 months old!

I can't believe Kaida is already 4 months old. She is starting to get out of her colicky stage and laughing when we play with her. She thinks Ridlee is hilarious. Kaida is now 24 inches long and 11.7 lbs. Tall and skinny little thing.
We have enjoyed watching the Blue Angels for the past 5 days. They flew right over our house. Ridlee did not like the noise or the house vibrating. She did look at one that flew right about us and said "look mom is has sparkles!"
We also went to a condo in Ogden and went swimming everyday with Kyler and Brandy. Ridlee had a blast.

4th of July

The 4th was fun. Ridlee is still afraid of fireworks. She liked the big ones at the river for a little while. I think the noise it what she hates the most. Ridlee loved getting candy at the parade.

Finally Summer

Kaida just turned 3 months old. She is happier more often which is nice. Ridlee likes to talk to Kaida and get in her face. Their personalities are soooooo different, it's funny. In the past month we have been to Utah to visit family again. We went camping in Palisades. Both girls did great camping. They both slept throught the night in the camper. I wish Kaida would do that at home. I have adjusted to being a stay at home mom and I'm not in survival mode anymore. Yeah for me. We also put a playset in the backyard. Ridlee loves going down the slide.



Camping

We survived 2 months

Kaida just had her 2 month check up. She is now 8lbs 15oz. She is our little runt. She still wears preemie and newborn clothes! She is still colicky. I hope that passes soon. I need a break. Kaida wants to be held 24 hours or a day or she tells you about it. The only time both girls are happy is when we are shopping! They are born shoppers. SO needless to say my house is a mess and I might get to clean it in a month or so when I'm not tending to 2 demanding opinionated girls.

We did make a trip to Utah and Ridlee got to play with her cousins.



We also went camping. It snowed on us, but then it would be sunny and nice. We had bipolar weather. It was fun to get out. Ridlee loved riding her 4-wheeler all over. She was very upset when her battery died.

Happy Easter

We spend Easter with Travis's family. Ridlee loved playing with her cousins. She also loved all of the candy and treats. On Saturday we made a 20 foot banana split. It was yummy.

Ridlee wanted to sit on the Easter Bunny lap




Kaida is so tiny next to a standard football!

Kaida Lyn Snowder

Kaida was born Tuesday March 23rd at 1:40pm. Weighing in at 6 lbs 15 oz and 20 1/2 inches long. She has lots of dark blonde hair and olive skin. She is sooooo good. She slept all through the night. Freaked me out cause I wanted to feed her. Here is one picture. I will post a slide show later.

Last Dr Appointment

Today is such a good day. I had my last Dr appointment. I am dialated to a 3, 50% effaced and I lost weight!! How great is that. And the sun is shinning. I actually have motivation to get things done (gotta love nesting). And I am loving having a new car (2008 Toyota Highlander). Yep this is going to be a great week! (I am Mrs. Positivity right now. That might change if I go into labor in the middle of the night) My next post will be pictures of my beautiful little girl (as long as the ultrasound was correct). Good-bye for now.

36 week update

My doctor told me she would enduce me on the 23rd. Yeah!!!! (I knew this 2 weeks ago but I was too lazy to post it) I can't wait to have Kaida join us. Ridlee is getting excited too which is really cute.

First Haircut

Ridlee got her first haircut today. Before we left the house I told her Aunt Tangi was going to get scissors and cut her hair. She started crying and yelled "No she's not." Once we got to the salon she did great. She sat so well in the chair and was happy the whole time. (It might have something to do with the fact that she ate candy the whole time)
