Cutie Pie

Helping momma with the laundry
Falling alseep eating - Kaelyn has started to show some real personality when it comes to eating. It is so cute and sneeky. If there is something that she doesn't want to eat, she won't spit it out, but just sits there with her mouth closed. She seems to even pretend to fall asleep. Sometimes she will eat something that she doesn't like but moans with every bite. When you give her a bite of something she likes, then she will stop moaning. It makes us laugh. The other day, she was falling asleep eating something she didn't like so I went to put her in bed. She was sleepy in my arms, but when I put her in bed, she started laughing and stood right up and kept laughing. I picked her up and she started crying. Go figure. She loves standing in her bed. Back to eating we went, and she got sleepy on me again after 2 bites.

Kaelyn loves playing with her Pappy dog. He inches up next to her with this look that says, "please play with me". He is so very gentle with her and we couldn't be more pleaded. She even slaps him most of the time, and he is still very gentle. Ringo on the other hand growls at her when she gets too close. He doesn't want her near him at all.

Snow and more snow

This snow has been crazy for Oklahoma, but boy is it beautiful. Kaelyn played outside for a smidge, not quite old enough to get a real thrill from the wonderful white creation. The goats are not too thrilled with the weather, but they stay cozy in the hut that daddy built for them. Oh yeah, by the way, we got another goat. Her name is Snowflake. Very interesting and exciting story there. If you are wondering why we would do such a crazy thing, it was because we learned an important thing about goats. They are herd animals and need company. Babe was not eating her food and was very unhappy. She is pregnant, so food is very important, so we had to get her some company. It was like magic. She loves her food now.

7 months

These months just keep getting funner and funner. Kaelyn is now seven months old and more active than ever. She is pulling up on everything and laughing and squirming with glee all the time. She certainly lets us know when she wants something or is unhappy with something. Wiping her chin when she's done eating and changing a diaper or putting on clothes are quite the chores these days, but the giggles, and kisses, and joy with life make up for it all. Here are a few cute pics. Kaelyn also got dedicated at church today. It was a beautiful service today and a wonderful time of year to be blessed to have her dedicated. She is such a blessing to us and is a gift that we get to cherish here on this earth.

The 6th Month

Boy oh boy have we been having fun or what. Kaelyn is just growing and growing and enjoying life more and more everyday. At her 6 month check up, she weighed in at 16 lbs 4 oz and was 25 1/4 inches tall. She is a shorty, but I like her that way. Kaelyn loves to eat and still only has rejected avacados. Everytime we add something new and interesting, she loves it. She says DADADADADADa all the time these days. An mmmmm sound comes out only when she is mad. Her new favorite thing to do is crawl in our laps and tug at our pant legs to get us to pick her up. She is beginning to do the real crawl more often these days except when she is really excited about getting somewhere and she goes to town with her inch worm crawling screeching as she goes. It is so cute. She still is thrilled about her bath time. She loves to bang her toes on things and slap the ground and try to lay on her puppy, Ringo. She "sings" when she plays her piano and loves to get ahold of anything that we have in our hands. She is definitely a mommas girl, but as long as momma is not in the room, she is happy with most other people. Poor daddy, his day will come soon. At least she says dada. We are just in love with our baby girl. Enjoy the cute pics and videos.
