Our Little Walker

So Kylie is officially a walker now! She walks more than she crawls. She loves to take her little push walker outside and push it around on the sidewalk. I don't have any pics of that yet, but I will get those up soon. She loves walking!

She just went up to the grandparents for the weekend to stay a couple days by herself. Its our anniversary so we thought it'd be nice for her to go up there a couple days for a vacation. We will miss her but it will be a great time for us to recouperate.
She is doing great with eating- she refuses to let us feed her anything. She has to do it on her own. So no more mushy baby food!

She has four teeth on top now, and still the two on the bottom. She is getting one in next to the bottom ones, and we think that may be waking her up at night. She woke up a couple times in the middle of the night last night. But she always just goes right back to sleep.

She now knows how to talk on a cell phone! I am not kidding. She has a couple of old ones that are her own, and when she picks it up she hands it to me. Then I put it to my ear and say "hello?". She then puts it to her ear and says "Oh?". Yep, she is a genius. Sometimes she will do it without me having to do it first. She also picks up my sunglasses and tries to put them on her face becasue she knows mommy puts them on her face.

I can't believe she is almost a year old. Where did the time go?? Oh, and here is a little blackmail for the kiddies when they get older.

First Steps!

Kylie took her first step on April 29 (last saturday!) The past two weeks, she has been getting up to a standing position from the floor all by herself without pulling up on anything. So we have been trying to encourage her to walk towards us when she does that. Well she finally did on Saturday! Now every day she walks a little farther. Today we are up to about 5 or 6 steps towards us. She is so proud of herself too.

Her new favorite food is Salmon. She devours it. She is doing a lot better with table foods like cut up carrots and beans. She even pushes away her mushy food sometimes. So we are getting closer to cutting out the baby food soon.

We are all moved into our new place, and she seems fine with it. It hasn't seemed to bother her at all. She is sleeping fine and her schedule is the same. She loves the carpet and just zooms all over it. She has gotten either a little cold or allergies the past few days but it doesn't seem too bad. Just some coughing, and the dr said her throat was a little swollen, but its not strep so thats good.

Sorry no pictures of her walking yet- I need to charge the batteries. But I will get them up as soon as I can!
