21 Months Old

Tomorrow Kylie will be 21 months old. How is that possible? Time is going by so fast!

We recently had her pictures taken by a lady that worked with my mom. For anyone that has not seen the pictures, you can see a few of them by going to my mom's blog (http://www.sisteroneoffour.blogspot.com/). All of the pictures turned out great. The photographer told me that I could pick ten pictures for free and she would put them on a CD for me to print off whenever. I couldn't pick just ten, so I paid for the rest. All of the pictures were taken at the Quad area at Baylor University. Kylie loved climbing up and down the stairs. The photographer just let Kylie run around and she chased her with the camera. She had a great time and gave the photographer (and mommy) a good workout.

Some Stats about KJ:

• Height: The last time we took her to the doctor they said 34 inches, but I don't think she got shorter since her 18 month checkup when they measured and said 36. They measured her standing up instead of lying down, so she may not have been standing completely straight. All I know is that she is tall for her age. She is about 1 to two inches shorter than our neighbor who will be three this year.

• Weight: 27.4 lbs

• Shoe Size: I think we are at 5 maybe almost 6

• Wears size 18-24 months in most things. She wears some clothes that are size 2T (I don't know exactly what size that is)

• Words she says: YaYa (mom is so glad), MaMa, DaDa, RyRy (for her uncle), PaPa, nanna (banana), byebye, go, pup pup (for any size dog), ball, car, manman (snowman), ba (blanket), shsh (shoes/socks), Nenna (Jenna, her godmother), rock (when she wants to rock in the our recliner), chair, down, please (and uses sign lanuage so show the word), Ky-ee (for her name), GoGo (for Dora the Explorer...don't know how it got the name "go go"), me, church, purple, bible, bow, cheese, baby, Elmo, call (she picks up the phone and wants to call somebody). She is picking up new words every day.  I may have forgotten some words because she is constantly talking and I can't always hear (or understand) what she is saying.

• Loves to read or have someone read to her.

• Loves to give hugs and kisses

• Waves to almost anyone (unless you tell her to wave, and then she won't)

It is hard to believe that KJ will be two in three months. I am already planning her birthday party. She climbs on everything and loves bananas so a monkey themed party is perfect for her. A pink monkey party of course!!
