So today we found out several things about Kaylee. First carrots are so gross they cause puking. It was funny and sad. So we are moving on to green beans. Second she’s tall enough and strong enough to flip herself out of her crib. I walked into her room seconds before she did so after nap time, and promptly lowered her mattress. I really should have done so a while ago but things kept getting in the way. Well it’s done now so disaster averted. And third…. it’s a TOOTH! Yes my friends she finally got her first tooth. Since a few days before Christmas she’s been pulling at her ears, and having mild diarrhea sporadically, so we have been waiting for other signs. She never got a fever, swollen gums, or acted like she was hurting. So this afternoon while feeding her green beans I felt her gums again for the hundredth time. And there it was a very sharp all the way through the gum little baby tooth. Jon was as surprised as I was when I called to tell him. There was nothing there last night when we last checked. I hope the rest come in so easily. I feel bad when babies are ouchy teething. Oh and she thought it was funny looking through the crib bars. I’ll post a picture of her tooth when it’s out more for a better shot.

VERY edited (but still long) Kaylee opening some of her gifts.
Yummy Christmas Eve Navajo Tacos and SCONES!
Kaylee’s first hair cut.
I took pictures of the after, but not of the before or during. So the before shots aren’t the best. But hopefully you’ll get an idea of what the back of her hair looked like, and it’s length. Jon held her while I cut the bottom two inches off the back of her hair to get rid of her lovely mullet she was sporting. She did great. So now she has a little baby A-line that we think is really cute. It’s hard to tell in the pictures with the angle. Also her rub spot is filling in, but all her new hair is coming in a very light brown so she still looks sparse in the back.
I think she likes it. Oh, I gave Jon a haircut too so now Kaylee doesn’t have anything to hold on to for Daddy shoulder rides. Jon likes that, but I sort of miss her grabbing on tightly and securely. Oh well, Jon’s careful with her.
