BIG day for a little girl

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.

Uncle Gerimias and cousin Franco

My uncle and cousin were driving through on their way back to Texas, and we were able to visit for a bit. The last time I saw Franco he was a baby! He is so big now. Kaylee was a little overwhelmed by all the new faces so she was glued to me most of time. It was a really nice visit and so good to see everyone. Jon even got to very briefly meet Uncle Gerimias because of a forgotten camera. He and Jake were fixing a Kiosk in St. George, and the gathering was a bit of a surprise so I just thought they wouldn’t be able to meet. So them saying hi while getting into cars to go separate ways was a happy accident. We took lots of group photos because people were coming and going. Also I love that Franco is white like me. 🙂
