ONE YEAR OLD!!!

Kylie Jo is now one year old! I can't believe it. It doesn't feel like it has been a year. Time has gone by so fast. It feels like just yesterday we were bringing her home from the hospital. She is growing up fast and I love watching her grow and learn. She is everywhere these days. She doesn't like to sit still for very long.
We had her first birthday party this past weekend. It was exhausting (for me and my mom), but fun! Kylie got so many presents. Most of which make noises. She has all kinds of buttons to push, books to read, and clothes to wear. She had her very first cupcake at her party. She loved it! At first she wasn't to sure, but then she took the whole thing and tried to put it in her mouth. She ate most of it and then ate a little icing off a second cupcake. She is a fan of sweets like her mommy.

Here she is getting the icing on the second cupcake.

Here she is in her pretty party dress and
sitting below the banner her mommy made her for her party

Here is her "cake". I made all of the cupcakes...all 91 of them
(that is how many four boxes of mix made)

Just another picture because I think it is really cute :)

I love her in her overalls.

Kylie Jo,

I'm glad you had a great birthday party. It was exhausting, but I would do it over and over again for you. I can't wait to continue watching you grow and learn new things every day. Just don't grow up too fast!

Love,

Mommy

Almost One

Almost a year ago to the day I posted how I was ready for Kylie to come. Now she has been here for almost a year, and I don't know what I would do without her. I didn't know how much I could love someone until I met her. I cannot believe she is turning one year old on Thursday.

Here she is in the 4D ultrasound.

Here she is at 10 1/2 months.

I hope to post year pics soon. Her birthday party is next week and she is ready to have her first cupcake :):)

These past 12 months have flown by!

Happy 1st Birthday Kylie Jo...our sweet and lovable Kylie Bugs!

Mommy and Daddy love you very much and are proud that you are our daughter.

Smiley Kylie

Love these pictures!!! They were taken by one of my co-workers at our yearly police party.

This was a very long day for us, but you can't tell my Miss Kylie's smile. We were outside from 10a-5p on this day, and she loved it. We spent the first part of the day at at family function by the lake and the second part was the PD party. She is such a ham. Everyone thought it was so funny that as soon as the camera was pointed at her, she would start cheesing. Hope she always does this when she gets her picture taken. She is a very very happy baby (if you can't tell by the pics). Love those baby blues!!

In a little over a month she will be a year old. Hard to believe it. She is all over the place and getting into everything...and I mean everything. Her favorite thing to do is stand up at the coffee table and bang the remote controls and coasters on it and then let them fall to the ground. Good thing the coasters are not breakable. She has also started walking along the table when she sees something at the other end that she thinks she needs to have.

I know the picture is not the best quality, but still very cute :)

It is hard to believe my little baby is going to be a year old in less than two months. She is now all over the place...more than before. She now crawls on her knees when she wants to, but is still very fast doing her army crawl. She likes to "run" (crawl really fast) away from me when she is trying to get somewhere she is not suppose to be (like the bench next to the tv or the hearth). She keeps us busy.

My Beautiful Baby

Stand Up!!

Kylie's newest accomplishment

Last night she crawled over to a box in the living room and pulled herself up. She then bent down and sat down. She is very proud of herself, and so are we. She is getting so big! We also had to lower her bed so she can't climb out. We actually had to lower it by two levels because she is so tall. Can't believe my little baby is going to be a year old in less than three months.

9 Months

Miss Kylie Jo is now 9 months old. Where has the time gone? She is growing up so fast! She had her 9 month check up this past Friday and she is 15 lbs and 30 inches tall. Six more inches and she will be three feet tall!!! I think she weighs she about the same as a 6 month old. The doctor said her height and weight are growing at the same speed so everything is good. She eats every three hours so I know she gets plenty to eat. She loves to eat!!!
