Our Tiny Dancer :)

Kaelyn went to a little summer dance camp and at their last class they showed us what they have learned so far (in just 3 classes) and a preview of what they will learn this fall. :) Nonny and Papa happened to be in town from FL so they got to come see our sweet ballerina too! She did great. I can't believe how much she has grown! Wow, my baby is a beautiful little girl now. Kaelyn, you make us so proud. You keep love, laughter, and craziness alive at all times! :) We love you!

How cute are all these little girls?!

 

 

 

And here's our sweet Kalli at 7 months :)

Kalli Gets Earrings!

We were in Greenville exchanging a few things at the mall and we walked out right at the place we got Kaelyn's ears pierced a few years ago... Piercing Pagoda. Kae was around 7 months when we got hers done and Kalli is about 6 and 1/2 and we figured since we were there we would go ahead and do it. Luckily I had our point and shoot in the diaper bag so we could snap a few pics. :) Kalli has soooo much hair that I had a hard time keeping it tucked behind her ears so the lady could see where to pierce! LoL Our baby girl did great though... Cried as you can see, but just for a few seconds and she was back to our happy girl!

 

 

 

 

6 Month Update

Kalli, on your 6 month birthday you were sick with tummy troubles. This is the first time you cried on the scale at your checkup... you just didn't want Mommy to put you down. I still snapped a quick pic to record your weight... 12lbs. 9oz. You are a petite little thing! :) Since you were sick you didn't get your shots on this day. On this day, you had diarrhea and a fever of 102. Since you are on the small side they were worried about you and did a cath to take urine for testing to make sure you didn't have a UTI, or something wrong with your kidneys. This was scary for me considering I thought it was going to be a routine checkup! But Praise God, the cultures came back negative and you are just fine! You had some sort of virus and we went back on the 25th for your 6 month shots.

 

Now for the fun stuff... You have been making your mmm sounds for a while and people even swore you were saying Mama at 3 months old when you cried. You are a Mama's girl and you were definitely crying for me. haha ;) Your first word was "Mama" and you said it super clear on June 17th!

Here are a couple pictures of you on June 16th sitting up so proudly and starting to scoot and crawl. You are a super little mover!

 

 

We spotted your first tooth on May 31st and another one came soon after. Here are your sweet little teeth. :)

4 months old!

Our tiny baby girl is 4 months old today! Can't believe it! Here she is swinging for the first time at the neighborhood playground... what a big girl. Even helping Mommy with laundry already. hehe

Kalli, at 4 months you are rolling over both ways, cooing, smiling, and "talking" a lot, such a sweet girl, sleeping great on most nights...although you are starting to teethe, and it's interrupting a lot lately. :-s You reach out to grab everything and are using your hands so much. You have been scooting on your back since before 2 months...you would scoot right off your changing pad! Now you are scooting a little on your tummy when you see something you want to get. I am excited about watching you grow and introducing you to 1st solid foods soon! :)

Happy 4 months, Kalli Dawn! We love you so!

 

 

 

 

Just Because HK Party

Kaelyn's friend Elise hosted a Just Because Hello Kitty party today! Kaelyn and I had some much needed Mommy Daughter alone time. We left Kalli home with Daddy & Skyler and ran some errands before heading to the party. It was so much fun! They played games, decorated cupcakes, played on the swingset, had yummy food, and a pinata. The cake was sooo cute and made by the other little hostess' Mommy. Thanks Patty for opening your home for all of us to have a great time! Tonight when I was putting Kae to bed she said, "Thank you for taking me to the party Mommy. I had fun with you...I love you so much!" What a perfect ending to a great day! That alone time meant as much to her as it did to me. :)

 

 

 

 

4 Month Checkup

We had Kalli's 4 month checkup on the 12th, and you know what that means...
those dreaded shots! Everything looks good and she is a growing girl at 11lbs. 5oz.
They said she is a petite little thing and she looks like a babydoll. :) So thankful for our healthy baby girl, and let's not forget Big Sis! She was so sweet and concerned when they "poked" her Kalli.
Check out those metallic bandaids...Recovering in style. ;)
