Restaurant Etiquette

I thought Kelsey was going to learn good Restaurant etiquette because we are always at one...but I guess not.

Change in plans...update

Well, our finalization date was changed. :( We are sad. The judge was not going to be available on the 30th...so it has been changed to April 13th.

Now for an update on Kelsey. She went to the doctor last week. She is now 32" and 24 lbs. She got 2 shots and more bloodwork. So, it was a tough visit for her.

Here are a few new pics of the babe.

Uncle EJ and Kelsey...she thought it was sooo funny to 'kick' him when she'd swing forward.

Finalization

I got a call from our attorney today that we have a court date!! We will go before the judge on March 30th to finalize Kelsey's adoption. After receiving the court documents we will be able to apply for Kelsey's citizenship. YEA!!

Dippin'

Kelsey has become quite the master of eating out...sadly enough. In the last week she has been to Cracker Barrel, Red Lobster, Applebee's, PF Chang's, and McDonalds! Okay, so I've not really cooked much lately. ;) It's a good thing she is not a picky eater! Recently we've been letting her dip her french fries in ketchup. She loves it. I think she only ate 3 french fries but had half a cup of ketchup!! She also loved the honey mustard. She is a dipper!

UPDATE!!

Soooo, it has been a long time since I've updated. There has been alot going on and I wasn't sure I was going to blog about it. But, here it is...we found out in January that dad has colon cancer. We were all pretty shocked, but his diagnosis was pretty promising. He had surgery toward the end of January and they were able to remove all of the cancer. They also removed his gall bladder and over 100 lymph nodes. The gall bladder was removed because the doctor thought it may give him trouble in the future and figured why not take it now...so he did. He removed the lymph nodes because they looked inflammed and he thought the cancer may have spread. However, the cancer had not and all 100 came back negative. So, we were very blessed. Dad went home from the hospital sooner than we'd all hoped and he ended up back in the hospital the next week. This time he stayed a little longer, but left feeling much better. So, dad was in the hospital the 2nd time for mainly an infection. He was able to go home today, but will have some home care and will be back in Lexington next week for more doctor appointments. So this has been our main focus for the last few months.

On a lighter note, Kelsey has turned 15 months and growing like a weed. She is learning so many new things each day and it is so much fun to watch. She has recently discovered she can walk backwards. It is so funny to watch.

We had 1 nice day last week...the only one we've seen since this fall and probably the last for awhile. We actually had snow yesterday!! Anyway, we took advantage of the pretty spring-like weather and took a quick trip to the park. So, here are a few new pics of the babe.

It's official...she is a monkey. She was able to hang from the monkey bars for a long time...by herself!!

I think she is going to be a frisbee golf player. That will make her daddy happy.
