Happy 6th Birthday, Kenzie!

Dear Kenzie, I can't believe it! You are six-years-old now! That is crazy. If someone asks you to show you how old you are (which doesn't happen really at 6 but let's pretend for a moment), it would take you two hands. TWO! You continue to grow and grow... and grow. It isn't uncommon for people to still think you are somewhat older than you are. At this point you are 47 inches tall (81st percentile) and you weigh 48.6 pounds (55th percentile in weight for height). You are still tall and thin. Nothing new there.

Plus, with Jack we were limited on space in my car so we almost needed him to drive his truck just for the added space. The trip up was uneventful except for some heavy patched of rain. Steven got a lot more rain on his trip but both of us made it within about 30 minutes of each other. We all went to dinner at La Hacienda, a super yummy Mexican restaurant in Palatka. Pa
