22 Months

Kaylee,

I can't believe it has been 4 months since I've updated the blog! Time is flying by and in just 2 more months, you will be 2 years old. I have done a terrible job at taking pictures, it has been a while since I've taken any with my digital camera. I always grab my phone to get pictures of you throughout the day and that is something that I'm really wanting to change.

I also want to make it a point to get more video of you playing or talking. Everything you do is so cute and I want to be able to look back and remember the cute things you say and do.

Here's what you've been up to:

• You are still in size 5 Target diapers


• You have a few 2T things that fit you, but you mostly wear 3T (and even have some 4T clothes that fit)


• You are wearing a size 9 shoe


• Your vocabulary has really grown! You still say things that we can't understand but after repeating yourself a few times we can usually figure it out.


• A lot of times instead of saying "Hi Mama" to me, you will say "Hi Baby"


• You love playing with Liza and you always run into our room when you wake up to go find Remi


• You just finished Mother's Morning Out and will be going back again in the fall, you did so well and really changed and learned a lot


• You are down to 1 nap each day. You will usually take a nap shortly after you eat lunch and sleep anywhere from a hour and 1/2 to 3 hours.


• You still sleep 12 hours every night (and I love you for it!)


• During the day you like to climb up on the couch and lay down. You will say night night and cover yourself up with my blanket. Then you will ask for your paci and your lovie. You never lay down long and will get right back up. I think this is your sneaky way of getting your paci during the day.


• You are becoming picky with what you eat. You usually end up just snacking throughout the day and won't eat much at breakfast, lunch and supper. If I would let you, you would eat nothing but fruit snacks everyday.


• You have learned how to say I love you ("lov ooo") and it is the sweetest thing!


• You still love giving kisses. You especially like it when your Daddy holds you and you go back and forth giving both of us kisses.


• Speaking of Daddy, you are a Daddy's girl! You ask for him when you wake up in the morning and several times throughout the day. When I tell you he is at work you will say 'work' and continue to play.


• You still sleep with your lovie every night, but also sleep with Minnie Mouse and 3 other bears.


• Speaking of Minnie Mouse, you are obsessed! When you were out of town last week visiting your Grandma & Grandpa, your Daddy & I were talking to you on Skype and he was holding Minnie. You saw her and started reaching for the computer saying "Min Mouf(Minnie Mouse)" and started crying. We felt so bad!


• You love to sing and dance to songs, especially Wheels on the Bus and Itsy Bitsy Spider.


• You also like singing your ABC's and can count to 10 along with me.


• You love going back to TN to spend time with Grandma, Grandpa, Great Granny & Uncle Quinten. You spent 9 days with them last week and didn't want to get in the car with Daddy & I when we picked you up.


• As for the funny things you do... you are trying to learn how to jump. You will stand on the ground and get up to your tip toes and then almost fall over. You are also a copy cat. Yesterday I was talking to you and thew my hands in the air and you did the same thing, I couldn't help but laugh.

I have been working on planning your 2nd birthday party and still can't believe you are going to be 2 years old. I love doing things to surprise you and I'm excited to see your reaction to the things your Daddy & I have got you this year.

I love you so much baby bug!

Love,

Mama
