A Girl and her Baby

Kaylee has REALLY taken to baby dolls lately. She almost always has one in her arms and she has to have one to sleep with also. I love this stage, she is pretending to be a little mommy and is really getting into pretend play. I think I know what is going on her Christmas list!!

She hasn't gotten into the cabbage patch dolls yet, I think they are too big. I will have to wait to bring my old ones out for a little while.

Ouch!

Kaylee got her first good booboo today. She turned and fell right into the corner of a wall. She doesn't seem to bothered by it. You can still see a pretty good bruise 12 hours later. I think she is going to take after her mother when it comes to bruises:) Poor girl. She has had a runny nose today, fell from the slide at Church yesterday and hurt the back of her head. She is not having a good week so far. Hope it gets better.

The finished Product

I finished Kaylee's tutu over the weekend. It was so easy to make, I already have the materials to make more:)
This just shows you how full it is!!


What little princess wouldn't go off riding on her horse.? Now all she needs is her Knight in Shining Armor.

As you can see, she wears it all the time. She has found it is hard to do puzzles with it on though. Speaking of puzzles, Brian and I are very impressed how good she is getting at these puzzles. She can match all of them up. She still has to learn to turn the pieces to fit them in, but she is starting to get that.

The post just wouldn't be complete without this picture:) I thought halloween was over. I guess since he was sick and didn't get to go trick or treating, he had to dress up now.

Little Princess

Kaylee learned a new word the other day. Can you guess what it is?

Tutu!!!! I am in the process of making this for her but she couldn't wait to wear it. At first she was a little timid with it, but then she wouldn't take it off. She dances in it and I love it. She is my little princess:)

Cracking me up!!!

Some of you know that I watch my neighbors 6 month old daughter. Well, yesterday, I had both girls playing downstairs. I smelled someone so jokingly, I asked who was poopy. Kaylee immediately raised her hand:) Where does she learn these things?

Happy Veterans Day. A special shout out to my dad who served in the Marines - many years ago. Thanks Dad, proud of you!!!

16 Months Old

Really? Kaylee is 16months old today? I can hardly believe it.
She is doing so many new things lately:

She loves to do the knob puzzles. She doesn't all the way get the pieces into the puzzle but she is matching the pieces to where they should go.

She has so many new words and phrases lately. She says: uh oh, wow, bye, hi, baby, diaper, plus more I can't think of. She knows the sounds to: train, lion, snake, cow, sheep, puppy, monkey, horse, and a few others. She is also learning her sign language. She goes around the house signing please and more, mostly. She will show us what she wants so it helps a lot.

She is getting very smart. I can not believe how much she comprehends at this point. I have been challenging her and giving her two instructions at a time and she carries them out with out me repeating them.

She loves to give kisses, most of the time. She gets a little stingy on them sometimes:)

Her favorite things to do right now are: play at the park, go for walks, wrestle with daddy, and just follow us around the house.

I know there are more things she is doing that I am going to have to document here for my sake, but I will have to add them later. We have some play time to get too!!!
