Beth's Baby Shower

Well, my good friend, Beth, at work is pregnant. She is due to have baby Huck on December 6th, but I won't be surprised if he decides to come earlier. We had a baby shower for her at work yesterday and she got a lot of really cute stuff!

Her nursery is navy, red, and khaki, and the theme is vintage baseball. I ordered her cake from a lady that I always use for cakes. They are always delicious and beautifully decorated!

Thank you to everyone at Arkansas Surgical Hospital who helped make Beth's shower awesome! Many people helped in various ways and I appreciate everything that everyone did to make this day special for Beth.

Now here are a few pics...

This is one of my favorites...this is Beth opening one of her last presents...it was a laundry basket FULL of baby goodies!!!

Thinking of making a change...

Well, here I go...day 1 of trying to do better with my blog. I have neglected it quite a bit over the past year or so. I hate that I haven't kept it as up to date as I wanted to. But thanks to my wonderful friend, AMANDA, I realized that there are people whom I love that I don't necessarily get to see or talk to all the time, but I would love for them to stay up-to-date with what's going on in our lives and how much Kinley changes every day!

When I first started this blog, Kinley was the only thing on my mind! While she is still very much the main thing on my mind, I have come to realize that there is so much more to our lives as a family. And I pray and hope that one day there will be more additions to our family. We grow and change everyday, both together and separately, and I'm thinking about creating a new blog (that I would link to this one...) that would be more about us all as a family. My dilemma is a name. If you have any suggestions for what our new and improved "family blog" could be called, please let me know.

Try to do better!

This is my first time to try to post from my iPhone. I want to see how it does because starting today, I am going to try to update my blog more regularly. I have neglected it a lot over the past year or so. More to come...

I know its been a long time...

Let's start with a few pics:

I haven't posted anything in quite a long time!!! We no longer have a home computer that works or internet. I occassionally borrow my dad's laptop and that is what I am using right now. I really do wish I had kept this blog updated better, but I will try my best to at least make periodic posts of the lastest Floyd Family News...

Kinley is growing and changing everyday! I can't believe how much she is talking these days. She says so many things. Here are a few examples:

"I want cheerios."

"I love shoes." (at Target in the shoe isle last week )

"Don't touch it." (She says this a lot when she lays her washcloth over the edge of the bathtub)

"I wanna sit."

"I love you." (MY FAVORITE!!!)

"Its OK, Carter." (She says this to our friends' baby)

"Hush, Susi!" (She calls our dog (Lucy) Susi)

She can tell you many of her body parts: eyes, nose, mouth, teeth, cheek, tongue, ears, hair, neck, arms, legs, hands, feet, and tummy.

She doesn't just walk now, she RUNS!!! And she can run fast! She is hilarious. She is also not afraid of water at all. If it was up to her, she would walk straight into the pool without anything. It doesn't even bother her when her face goes under the water. She is my little tadpole.

Bryan taught her to give "hug with arms." For awhile now, if you ask for a hug, she just lays her head on you and says, "awww." Now you can ask for a "hug with arms" and she'll wrap her arms around your neck and give you a hug. Its the sweetest thing ever!

I'm sure there's more new things but I'm going to go for now. I have an unexpected day off today so I need to get some things done around the house.
