Yum! Yum! Kaylee loves her crackers!
Kaylee just turned 9 months old. Time sure has flown bye us! We are loving being parents and are having such a blast with Kaylee. She is so much fun!!! Every day is more and more exciting with her moving all over the place. Kaylee LOVES bathtime. I think she could stay in the tub all day if we let her. She has duck and fish bath toys that she plays with the whole time to where mommy usually has to take them away to be able to give her a bath and then she gets to go back to playing. She loves splashing all around. She also loves playing peek a boo with someone in the shower. She loves crawling over to the tub, standing up and then jerking the decorative curtin back and giggling. Kaylee and daddy play this game a lot. He will sit down in the tub while the shower is running and she has a ball. She doesn't want to stop. She finds this so humerous and enteraning! So, I think in one of my most recent post I said she said MaMa. Well, she has not said it clear again. She talks alot of gibber jabber such as mamama, dadada, bybybyby and so forth and a couple of weeks ago we started teaching her Bye Bye and waving to someone when they leave or she leaves. Now Bye Bye is her favorite word and she loves to wave to people, all the time. She has been going through a lot of adjustments recently. She is loving her new room and home..it has dogs, cats, a bird and turtles. Kaylee LOVES animals..she will chase after them..aka...crawl after them all over if she can. Her favorite animal is a dog right now, especially Kyra...Sara's golden retriver. Kyra is almost two and has tons of energy and feeds off of Kaylee's energy. Kyra can get Kaylee giggling and not stop. She was trying to stand up on her own a lot for a couple of days and then all of a sudden she quit trying. She still trys every once and a while but not as often. She loves to dance. Daddy beat boxes and she can move to the beat. She loves music and loves to move to it! It is so cute. She does this crawl we call a monkey crawl. She is up on her hands like she is when she normally crawls but instead of being on her knees she straightens her legs and "monkey crawls". This is how she crawls now....it is very rare for her to crawl on her knees and now she is really good at the monkey crawl and can go really fast. She is great at playing all by herself...which is great for the early morning wake up call mommy gets. Mommy goes and lays back down on the couch in her bedroom and rests while she starts playing in the mornings. Mommy has not quite gotten adjusted to the move in the sense of everyone else in the house stays up late...really late..dinner is not usually until 8:30/9 pm and then everyone stays up and talks afterwards..with Kaylee getting me up around 6 am I am struggling to be coherant due to lack of sleep. I am trying to go to bed earlier bc my body just can't do it. Kaylee is roughly 15 pounds and is struggling to fit her 6 to 9 month clothes. Some of her clothes fit great but some still swallow her hole. Due to the transition of moving she started waking up again in the middle of the night and I would nurse her. Now she is teething again. I can see her 5th tooth coming in on the bottom and we think another one on the other side is also coming in. So due to all of this mommy had not gotten to sleep through the night. Kaylee also has changed her nap pattern. The first four months of her life she did NOT nap so when she finally started I didn't know what to do with myself. NOw I have plenty to do and all of a sudden a couple of weeks ago she started sleeping for an hour in the mornings compared to the 2 hour morning nap and an hour to hour and a half in the afternoon which she use to also sleep for 2 hours. So she only took two 2 hr naps for 5 months and she is already cutting them back. She is waking up from her afternoon nap as I finish typing.
Josh got a great job doing home watch. It is a dream job for him bc he gets to drive his dream cars for the homeowners. (in the sense of a secular job) and such a blessing from the Lord. He makes sure everything is taken care of while the people don't live in their homes down here in Florida. We can't believe we have already started thinking about her 1st birthday party...crazy huh?
I am a little sad today due to Kaylee finished off all the homemade baby food I made for her back in June. It is bitter sweet moment bc as of tonight I am putting her on all table foods and no more baby food. She has been eating cantalope, bananna's crackers, toast-toddlers toast, puffs, and so forth and now we are going to move onto the rest of the foods. She is still being nursed and will still have her otmeal baby cereal for breakfast but to me it just is one more thing to remind me that she is growing up quickly and appriciate every moment we have with her.We have been so blessed from the Lord with such a happy and healthy baby girl.
