O.k. so my kid just will not gain weight!
These are her stats from her 12 month check:

weight: 16 lbs. 15 oz. 2%, height: 27 3/4 in. 13 %.

These are from her 15 month check that we just came from:

weight: 17 lbs. 5 oz. .34%, height: 28 1/4 in. 3%.

She eats more than I do! Seriously ask anyone who has spent more than one meal at our house. People are always amazed at just how much she eats. She really should be a little porker. We have had our neighbor David (15) staying with us this last week and even he is shocked that she lost weight with how much she eats. I told him I was hoping she would be closer to 18 lbs… Oh, did I forget to say she was 17 lbs 9 oz two weekends ago. Jon and the nurse weighed her at my last O.B. appointment while I was in the bathroom. We eat healthy, but she gets plenty of good fats. Milk, Cheese, Yogurt, all sorts of meat,…. Plus she loves ice cream, popcorn and chips and eats those whenever they happen to be around. I don’t know… I just can’t seem to keep up with her extra super fast metabolism. She is just so her Daddy’s daughter! So I have to take her back in a month for a weight check. Other than her doctor being concerned (for the very first time) about her weight she is doing great. She has so many words (newest is UP said like bup), climbs like a monkey, and is just so much fun and too cute for words. She likes to give squishes (hugs), and blow kisses. She doing so many new things everyday it’s hard to even remember to write it all down. I love how like a sponge she is with everything!

Kaylee’s 1st Birthday Party

2 Replies
So here are some pictures of Kaylee at her party. It was tons of FUN, and she sure enjoyed herself. Cake, Pinata, and gifts, what more could she ask for? We would like to thank everyone who was able to come and celebrate with us. The two pictures on the sides are of her on her actual birthday. Her stats from her WCC today are: weight: 16 lbs. 15 oz. 2%, height: 27 3/4 in. 13 %. Birth stats were: weight: 6 lbs. 6 oz. 5%, height: 19 in. She didn’t get any vaccines today due to the oral steroids she was on. So she gets her shots in three weeks. Although she has been consistently small she has done lots of growing this past year. She’s eating tons of different food, and is so far only allergic to broccoli, asparagus, and eggs. I know so sad. She got put on Zertec today. She says Mom, Dad, all done, oops, ya, Yaya, do you, hi, uh oh, ta da, yes, and many more words. She chatters at us all the time. She love reading (she reads to us), being read to, playing Starfall, talking on the phone, anything electronic, going on walks, playing with her Daddy, anything with her Mommy, singing, and of course Lamby. She gets closer to walking everyday and is everyday doing something new. Today I offically packed up the last of her 0-3 month outfits (yes she still wore some). She is mostly in 6-9 months with a chunk still being in 3-6 months. I tried on one of her new 12 month outfits on her today just to see… can we say elephant skin? I decided to still put them in her room so she could wear them on occasion. I may have to safety pin them, but they are so cute I want her to wear them. She got lots of dresses and those are easier to wear big. It’s been an amazing year, and everyday Jon and I feel so blessed to have Kaylee in our lives. She is the most amazing gift, and we are so thankful for her.
We love you baby girl! -Love, Mommy & Daddy.

9 months old today.

New stats:
weight: 16 lbs. 6 oz. 12%
height: 27.25 in 40%
head: 17 in 27%

We can’t believe that in three short months Kaylee will have her first birthday. It amazes me everyday how much she learns and grows, and how fast these last months have gone bye. She has many new sounds, her favorite is still Dad. Jon loves it, and she will say Mom, but only when she is really upset and really wants me NOW. 🙂 She has learned how to crawl, pull herself up to and walk along furniture (or us), and wave hello and goodbye when asked. She loves saying Hi Dad, and uh oh (mostly in the right context). She shakes her head no when she wants Eskimo kisses (a.k.a nosers). She thinks it’s funny to say Dad when I ask her to say Mom. She usually shakes her head no smiles, and then says DAD. I swear she knows exactly what she’s doing. She will chase me down while yelling at me to let me know that she doesn’t approve of being left behind. She much prefers walking to crawling, so we hear about it when we make her crawl. She certainly has a personality. And although she doesn’t squeek like a mouse nearly as much while sleeping we still affectionately call her Squeeker, (she answers to Kaylee or Squeeker). Happy 9 months baby girl. We love you and wouldn’t change a thing about you.

Well it’s time to lower the mattress.
