What a Do!

These pics were taken right after Kellen got up from his nap. As you can see from his big smile, he is one well-rested baby. He is also showing off the fact that he finally has enough hair to illicit "bed-head"!

Stepping-Up his Game

After some 11 + mos of training, Kellen has brought his skills as a walking man to our attention. Please note that no infants were hurt during filming (those are cries of joy).

Soooooo BIG!

This is what folks in hip-hop refer to as 'call and response', as in; when I say 'so', ya'll say 'big'...
Kellen's getting a bit of a lesson here, which he obviously passes with flying colors. Next up, Kellen learns how to hype-up a crowd.

Trip to Wisconsin

In June, Kellen got to spend time with his Uncle Ben, Aunt Nicole and cousin Alex. He also got to meet his new cousin Mikey, who was born on January 1st. They all got along very well and we look forward to watching them grow up together!

The many talents of Kellen!

It has been a very busy July for Kellen (aka KDP, buddy, little man, oosh...the list goes on). As you can see from the pictures, he has really expanded his talents. Kellen is now eating eggs, making messes, going for boat rides, fishing, swimming (more like floating), opening cabinets, riding in a bike trailer (not his favorite past time), digging in the sand and overall just looking cute!

Summertime!

What can I say...the sunglasses were an impulse buy and worth every penny!

The Fenway Franks...and lil' frank!

Recently, Adam, Kellen and I went to Oregon to visit our very missed family and friends. Our inspiration for the May trip was the Pole, Pedal, Paddle, which is a relay race that takes place in Bend. We each had one leg to complete in the race. After a lot of disputing, it was finally decided who would complete each part of the race. It started with downhill skiing (Zach), followed by cross-country skiing (Dad), a 20 mile bike ride (Jill), 10k run (Me), kayaking (Diane), and Adam finished it off with a sprint. Kellen was our official mascot, which Adam, in all his creative genius, gave the name "Bay-B" (which of course is for Jason Bay AKA "The Yankee Killer"). Overall, a really fun event that will hopefully become a tradition in the Channing/Palmer household!
