Happy Valentine's Day!!!

Quit taking my picture and just pick me up mommy!

taking a break from playing to see what's on tv

check out the bow :)

what I found in my pile of clean clothes when I went to fold them :)

Trip to the park and packing.....

Sunday, the weather was beautiful so we decided to take Kylie to the park and let her swing!  She wasn't real sure at first, but soon you could tell that she really enjoyed it.  I'm sure we will be going back there all the time now!  Of course I took pictures.....Photo uploader decided to randomly turn some of my pics and I don't want to redo it so just turn your head please :)


not real sure about the swing

there's a little smile

very unsure about the slide



looking up at Daddy while he pushes her!


that sure was fun!

Sunday, I was needing to get some packing done, easier said than done with a mobile baby in the room.  She made herself very useful, I would pack something and she would reach in the suitcase and unpack it, usually throwing the item behind her.  I finally got tired of packing and decided that putting a cute hat on her and taking pictures would be more fun :)

trying to look all sweet and innocent, she didn't stay sitting there for long!

hmmm...what's this

those don't need to be in there

notice the mitten by her foot....luckily I wasn't really packing yet, was just gathering everything that I was going to take.

such a cute hat!


love this look on her face!

A Weekend of Firsts....

Saturday, Kylie went to the Lovefest and got to see her first parade.  She seemed to enjoy it, except for the sirens, she did tear up with those.  I think she loved watching all the people and the floats going by, she is such a people watcher and sooooo nosy!  After the parade, we shopped at the Lovefest and she enjoyed seeing people and didn't mind when people talked to her or even held her, she did great.  One of her favorite parts was touching a cold metal pole (it's the little things in life!).  As we were leaving, she actually started waving for real (before she would raise her arm and we would assume it was a wave, but now we knew it was for real!).  We think maybe it was from seeing all the people waving during the parade.  She now waves at everything...us, Kit-Kat, the tv, her toys....sometimes she also says Hey while she's waving, so cute!  Later on Saturday, she actually crawled on all fours, just a short distance, but she still did it.  I think she prefers the one armed belly crawl because she is so fast that way and it's less work.

Kylie waving :) she raises her arm and moves her fingers/hand
Kylie has been having horrible nights lately....last week her top left tooth broke thru, yesterday I noticed a bottom one has broken thru and her top right one is right below the surface, so poor baby has 3 teeth coming in at once, no wonder she has been so miserable.  Once these come in, she will have 3 on the bottom and 2 on the top.


OH!!!! Her hair is getting nice and long and bows stay in it now, even the bows that don't have the no slip grip are staying in, so exciting :) I'm ready for pigtails!


check out that bow!  I know it doesn't match...that's not important, it's just important that it's in there and stayed for a long time!

Not a lot going on......

There hasn't been a whole lot going on, just crazy weather.  Last week, we were supposed to get snow, 1-3 inches, and the whole city shut down the day before.  We kept waiting and waiting and waiting and well.....no snow, everything did ice over though and there were over 800 accidents, but no snow :(  I had wanted to get pictures of Kylie in her first snow, but had to settle for pics with her first icicles from the ice storm...she wasn't too thrilled!  As quickly as it got cold, the weather got nice again, for a few days and now it's back FREEZING again.  We're actually having some snow flurries right now.  Kylie hasn't been sleeping at night, she's waking up every hour which means I'm waking up every hour.  I'm as tired as I was when she was a newborn.  Kylie has her 3rd tooth, her upper left one broke thru this week.  Also, Kylie is finally moving forward, she's doing a one-armed army crawl and is really getting around good! 

Here's some pictures......

she loves this toy, especially the red gate that squeaks and says peek a boo when she opens it

pretty in pink

love this picture, such a prissy look on her face

she loves this toy, I pop the animals up and then she closes them all
