Just some baby fun

Kaelyn strutting her new diapers.

Playing at the zoo with our mommies group with the lorikeets. Kaelyn quite enjoyed looking at them, but they were a little noisy.

Our dear friends Rachel and Jason came down and visited a couple of weeks ago and we had a fabulous time getting to see them again. They live in Indiana these days.

Just a couple others for fun. I really love the one of her in her highchair and pink jammies. She just looks beautiful!!! We love our dear baby if you can't tell.

Kaelyn at 5 1/2 months

Wow!! This has been a big month for our little girl. Even just a big last two weeks. She weighs in now at 15 lbs 4 oz. She has mastered sitting well, she army crawls all over the living room requiring constant supervision. She has cut two teeth, started solid foods, and wants to check out anything that she hasn't touched before. She is so conscious of the world around her and gets bored easily with the same old things. She dumps over baskets and bangs on objects now. Grammy got her a new toy that has been her favorite lately. It is a cookie tray with several different shaped cookies that fit into respective holes. She loves to take all of the pieces out and make the tray sing. She is such a delight!! She laughs so much and gives such heart melting smiles. Life is quite fantastic. Kevin and I have definitely discovered that you can never understand the love of a parent until you become one yourself. What a priveledge it is to be blessed with children.

So far, there is no food that Kaelyn has turned down yet. She has tried bananas, pears, apples, peas, and sweet potatoes. We will try carrots next. I bet she really loves the sweet fruit we have been feeding her. She certainly lets us know how much she loves them with her cute giggles and her screaming when it is all gone.

One thing that we just do not understand. About 95% of people that see us at a store or out and about come up and say "Oh what a cute little boy". They say this even if she is dressed in pink or a dress. I don't get it. So, we started putting berets in her hair. She looks so pretty. Someday this will all change I am sure. She would make a pretty handsome boy though cause she looks so much like her daddy, but she is our beautiful girl.

Kaelyn has definitely become a momma's girl, and if momma isn't in the room then she wants daddy instead of anyone else. It is so fun that she loves us so much. She knows her parents well.

Well, check back soon.

Growing up so Fast

Our little baby girl is doing so many things so fast. She is about to take off crawling. She gets up on her hands and knees all the time and rocks, but doesn't know what to do with her cute little hands. She is also working on sitting, but has a ways to go in that department. Enjoy the cute pic and video.

4 Months Old

Wow!! Time is flying but with so much fun. Kaelyn went to her 4 month check-up on Friday and weighed in at 14 lbs 4 oz and is now 24 in. tall. She has evened out very well with her height and weight. The Dr. said we should wait until 6 months before we start any solids, but I am not sure we can wait that long. Kaelyn wants everything that we put in our mouths. She reaches for our cups and lets us know about it when we don't let her get her hands on it. She puts her mouth on it like she is going to drink out of it. We will see how we do and plan on making it until at least 5 months. Kaelyn is rolling everywhere and working hard at sitting up. She can hold her weight up for a minute or so, but then falls too far forward and gets uncomfy. She bears her weight on her feet very well and jibber jabbers tons. Tummy issues are great with the goats milk and aside from the bathtub, being outside is Kaelyn's favorite place to be. It's use in soothing her is still amazing to us. Yeah Kaelyn, we love you!!!
