Enjoying Time with Lita and Grandpa

I realize that it has been a while since I last posted on Kellen's blog......my apologies!!! School started two weeks ago, and any spare time has all but disappeared!! I will try to keep up a bit more!

Kellen has been up to his normal stuff. He continues to play soccer every Saturday morning. He really enjoys soccer - especially his coach (he is really fun and great with the kids).

He is getting so big. He is comfortable playing by himself in our spare room (what he calls "Kellen's living room") and it is so cute to listen in on him - he will be talking to his cars and toys, and will break into a song (usually the theme song to "Jake and the Neverland Pirates").

He has been more into spending time with Mommy. Whenever he plays a game, he always wants Mommy to be his partner....or, when he is watching television, he always wants snuggles from Mommy (and Mommy has no complaints!).

He is really into giving you kisses and telling you that he loves you. He will spontaneously say "Mommy, Daddy, I just love you!" He seriously knows how to melt your heart!!!

However, with his adorable lovings, he has been really pushing his independence over the past few weeks. He is testing boundaries by ignoring requests, or moving very slowly if you ask him to do something (basically, anything to drive you crazy!). But, then he gets upset when he is disciplined, and quickly tells you that he was going to do it, but first he just had to tell you something (seriously, this is what he always does...very odd). Ahhh, kids!

Now, that you are all caught up on what is new with Kellen......back to the blog!! Two weeks ago, Lita and Grandpa came up for a visit. Kellen was very excited when Lita suggested that they bake banana bread together (Kellen loves to bake). Here they are baking yummy banana bread.

And, later that day, Kellen had lots of fun hanging out with Grandpa.....something was very funny between them!
