Summer fun!

Kendall spent about 4 days in Grand Haven with grandma and grandpa Berends. Grandma said she was very well behaved and was making friends with all the other kids that were camping. She didn't care how cold the water was - she dragged grandpa in there no matter what (thank goodness I wasn't there!!!) Aunt Becky was also there at the same time and Kendall was attached to her hip. And as you can tell from the pictures - Kendall IDOLIZES her cousin Breanna. But when I first told Kendall she was staying at the lake with grandma and grandpa she was a bit confused - when we got there she said "where is gamma Milla and Jack and tarlie???" I told her there is more than one lake and she looked at me funny and I'm sure she was thinking "whatever mom".

When Kendall got home there was a furry surprise for her. We got a kitten! Kendall cannot get enough of her (i think it's a her). Her name is Boo. Kendall wants to hug and kiss her and carry her EVERYWHERE. She will tattle on Boo and say "moooom - boo just scraped me" - and I have to tell her she needs to leave the cat alone!!! Boo already has such a personality - when we get home she runs to the door and skids into our feet and purrs like crazy. Her and Kendall are getting along great so far - I think mostly because Kendall wants to give her 800 treats a day!

Yesterday we went to Binder Park Zoo. Even though it was TONS of walking - it was AWESOME to feed the giraffes. Kendall wasn't hesitant at all. I was completely amazed at how long their tongues are! They are about as long as Kendall's arm.

When we got home from Grand Haven Kendall has become even more of a daredevil and will now jump off the diving board with a ring on all by herself! She is very proud and wants to show everyone that comes over her new talent. I have a video of it that I will post when I get home tonight.
