On Tuesday evening, Auntie Whitney flew into town to help us watch Kennedy. Kennedy's daycare was closed for the week, but we still had to work. Since Whitney was still out of school and her work allowed her to take off, it was a good chance to get together. Kennedy just loves her Auntie Whitney. At Kennedy's daycare, they had been working with her to sit up on her own. Since Kennedy had been away for a while, we were starting to get worried that she'd lose her progress. During her time here, Whitney continued to work with Kennedy and it paid off. She has continued to get better and better at sitting up on her own. Sure, she can only do it for a couple of seconds, but it's progress nonetheless. We also enjoyed getting to visit with Whitney about her upcoming wedding with Nate. Whitney even asked Rachel to serve as her Matron of Honor. That was a great honor for Rachel. Those two have a special bond. Too bad Whitney doesn't live closer.
Kennedy has also learned to truly jump in her bouncer. For some reason, she curls her toes under her as she jump, and jumps and jumps. It's quite humorous to see her jumping full on. The photo below doesn't quite do it justice.
For new years eve, we didn't really do anything special. Funny story, we were visiting with some of our neighbors from Bolivia. They told us that in their country, they have a custom of doing various things within the first five minutes of the new year. One of the customs is supposed to bring you much travel in the new year. You are supposed to carry your luggage up and down the block. We thought it'd be fun to watch and sure enough, about a dozen people came running out of the house with their luggage right at the stroke of midnight. It looks like a fun tradition. We might even give it a try next year.
For new years day, we did some much needed house cleaning. That evening, we were able to have our neighbors, the Chaney's, over for dinner. It was a nice visit.
