Messy!!!


Kylie had her first experience with real spaghetti the other night. She has only been eating the baby food kind and loves it so we thought she might like the real thing. We only gave her a few noodles, and she did pretty good. She kind of had a hard time getting the noodles to stay in her mouth, but after a while she got the hang of it. After the few noodles we gave her the baby food kind and let her eat with her hands. That was first. She had a blast eating with her hands and making a mess!!!! Her hand, face, and belly were red from all of the sauce.
Spaghetti for dinner means a second bath for Kylie Jo.
Love that messy face!!!

Growing Up

Kylie is growing so fast. It is hard to believe that she is already 13 1/2 months old.

Kylie's Latest Accomplishments:

  • Signs the word "More" when she wants more of something to eat/drink
  • She now has 9 teeth. I found the 9th tooth today while she was eating a snack.
  • When you say "Arms Up" she does it
  • Points to what she wants and says "uh" which I guess it her word for "I want"
  • Stands up by herself when she is playing on our bed/or any other big bed. She doesn't do it much on the floor I guess because it is not as soft. Can we say "spoiled"...just kidding.
  • Has been riding in a forward facing carseat since last month and she loves it.
  • Turns the satellite for the tv on and off and knows which button to push to do it
  • She still uses a sippy cup, but now she likes to drinks from a regular cup (kind of messy, but we learned to only put a little liquid in it)
Favorite Things:
  • Vanilla Wafers (she could eat them any time of the day if we let her)
  • Eating anything off Mommy and Daddy's plate even when she just ate
  • She likes avocados just like mommy and mac and cheese (the real stuff not the baby food kind) 
  • Mommy and Daddy's sunglasses (she takes them off our head and puts them on her)
  • Reading books
  • Buttons of any kind
  • Her stuffed kitty cat that rides in the car with her
  • Looking at pictures of herself on Mommy's cellphone (she hands me the phone and says "uh")
  • Waving and smiling at everybody she meets
  • Going to YaYa's house to play with YaYa and Uncle Ryan
  • Making a mess of toys in the living room (We call her "Hurricane Kylie" after she is done playing)
