Happy Birthday Kelsey Liz!

Okay, so Kelsey turned 1-year old a couple of weeks ago.  I finally have a few minutes to dig though the four million pictures Randi took (thanks Rand!), and post.  First, here's a quick update on Kelsey.  She is now walking, and has been for over a month.  What a slacker mom I am.  With the first kid I write down the exact date and take pictures and video.  Kelsey gets a brief mention a month later.  But she loves walking around.  In the last two days she has figured out how to stand up without crawling to a wall, so that's fun.  She also babbles up a storm.  Her favorite word is "tickle".  Okay, that may not be what she means, but it's what she says.  She points to things and nods when we ask her questions.  She's getting so old.   At her 1-year check up, she weighed 17 lbs. 12 oz. and was 29 inches tall.  She's actually smaller than Emily was at a year, which is saying something.  She's super cute too!  Anyway, on to her birthday.  We just had the family over for a little party.  Always fun.  Kelsey didn't really get the cake for a while, but eventually got into it.  So, here's some pictures!
