Smiles

This is a fun stage with lots of smiles. He is almost 3 months and we are guessing right around 13 pounds already. He is so much fun - he loves to look at faces and grin from ear to ear. We also get tickled how when he sacks out for a quick cat nap here and there and spreads his arms and legs out. Wouldn't it be great to be that comfortable? Here are a few examples below...

Christmas was a big deal for Keenan meeting so many of his family members. He slept through the night for the very first time (7 hours) on Christmas Eve. It was a great trip and we were all sad to leave!

Santa Baby!!!

Keenan's first Christmas!!! We are excited to spend the holidays in South Bend with Ben's family. He did so well on the 8 hour car ride which we split up into two days. He enjoyed partying with the Fisher/Brittons/Thielkings and he attended his first annual Nace party with all the babies. He got to meet the kids...Anna Rose, Audrey, Jack and Riley - all for the first time(his extended family). More pictures to come...

Keenan meeting some of his role models for the first time.

It was a good day for Keenan to be able to meet his uncle LJ, uncle Wagon, uncle Nace and uncle Ferrett - someday down the road maybe he can join them for the 'guys weekend'

Baby photoshoot with dad ~

Ben had a good time taking pictures of Keenan this week. He was giving him so many cute facial expressions, he couldn't resist.

Video and Pictures of Keenan

We have enjoyed working with McNeal Video for our wedding and were glad to know that Amanda had started her own 'baby videos' We just had to do this for Keenan as we knew that all of our family except Grandpa Dave, Grandma Susie and Grandpa John would be away for the birth and first few weeks. Therefore, we needed a way to capture the moments for everyone else. She put together a wonderful memory for us and we are so glad to have this for years to come. I can already imagine he and his own children watching this together someday. Don't worry, there are no major labor shots!!! :)


Here's the link to their blog which has the link to our video -- once you get to the video page on blip tv - you have to let the video upload for about 5 minutes for it to play straight through. (turn your music up) check it out when you have a chance.

We also had Joey and Amy take professional pictures of Keenan so we wouldn't ever forget that very first newborn look. You can view them online at http://www.photoreflect.com/scripts/prsm.dll?eventthumbs?event=0QOL0010
