Cereal for the 1st time.

With this post I should be up to date! YEAH!

September 7th we gave Kylee cereal for the first time. She eats (drinks) really well and we thought she was kinda board with just the bottle so we gave her food. We put a towel down on our footstool and put her in her Bumbo with the tray on it and tried to feed her. We used the silver spoon that Great Gram got her. She got more on her than in her. I'm not sure if she liked it or not.... I think she kept spitting it out because it was so new. By the end of it she was crying and we fed her the rest of her dinner in a bottle. I guess only time will tell but I'm sure she will be fine, she comes from a family of good eaters so lets hope she is not picky!

Kylee's new quilt

My Aunt Mardel is really into quilting and found this beautiful bright quilt for Kylee to play on at one of her quilt shows. It's really nice because it is big enough that she has lots of room to play and she loves the bright colors!

Renaissance Festival

September 1st, Labor Day we went to the renaissance festival with my mom, my Grandma and Danielle. It was a very warm day but we all had a great day. Danielle got a henna tattoo and Kylee got a fairy hat thanks to Great Gram. We ate lots of great food, even a turkey leg that really sparked Kylee's interest! Kylee lost a shoe... but just like Cinderella it was found and returned! The festival is quite unique and a lot of people dress up... I brought Kylee a princess hat to wear (that only lasted a few minutes). We also saw a parrot that she really wanted to play with but we didn't think that was such a great idea so she had to admire him from a far. We had a great day and I want to take her back when she can get into it more.

Meeting Rachel

My BFF Rachel came into town over Labor Day weekend. This is the first time she has met Kylee because she lives in Arizona. I took Kylee over to the Smith's so Ray could see her and Kylee met more new friends.... their 3 HUGE dogs! She loved them and wanted nothing more but to pet them! The dogs did really well too.. and it's a good thing because Rachel's brother and his wife just had a baby girl too. Kylee got to meet Emma the next day when we went to a family lunch at the Smith's. Kylee looked HUGE next to Emma (she was only 2 weeks old). We had a great weekend and I am glad that Rachel and Kylee finally got to meet!

Playing with Hunter

August 23rd Kylee met a new friend Hunter. He is the son of Lisa, my oldest friend whom I don't see very often but wish that I did! Hunter is almost 3 and was very gentle with Kylee. They played outside on a very hot day while Lisa was having her garage sale. Despite the heat I think that they both had fun!

August Milestones

August Kylee really started to get to be fun! She loves all of her toys and has really started to play. I have been garage saling to find her toys. I have found that you can pay big bucks for kid toys and that does NOT mean that they will like them! Even if they like them you have to change them up because they get board! I (my Mom too) have found some really great deals. Kylee now has many learning toys and an exersaucer at our house and Grandmas. One of her favorite toys is a green frog rattle w/ 4 hoops on it..... she can eat that thing for days! Yup, everything goes into the mouth! She is a very happy baby but likes to have people to play with.... or at least be able to see them. You may say she is a bit spoiled but it's kinda hard not to be when she is w/ a family member at all times! She doesn't go to daycare, I take her to work w/ me and Freida and I play with her all day. Daddy has her on his day off and wants to spend quality time with her so they play. If my mom or Grandma have her they want to play with her... so yeah she is use to people playing with her! So needless to say when I want to get things done around here it can be a challenge. She goes to bed at 8 but by then I don't want to clean and I want to spend time with Mike. So yeah we might have dishes in the sink and my flower beds need to be weeded but I would rather spend time with her! (I do clean during her naps. LOL)

August Milestones

August 4th she rolled over for the first time! (from back to tummy) she gets mad because she can't crawl yet and gets stuck.

August 6th she found her feet and she LOVES them!

August 16th she started to try and hold her bottle (still needs help but she is trying)

August 19th four month DR appointment. She got her 2 round of shots (she did good). She was 15 lbs. 7 oz. 24 3/4 inches.

Go Tigers!

Kylee loves watching baseball with her Daddy! I think that she likes the sound of the announcers voice. Daddy loves the Braves but the Tigers are a close 2nd (and they don't sell Braves stuff in MI). On July 26th we did a Tiger's photo shoot and she had pink Tigers gear just like her Mommy! She got the baseball form her Grammy when she was born.
