Dear Kinsley,
I love SO many things you are doing these days!
- You make animal noises such as a sheep, doggy, monkey and cow.
- You say mama, dada, nana, and bye bye
- I can say, "Kinsley can you sing" or even just start singing to you and you will sing your own little tune back
- You love putting things in other things... I have to double check the waste baskets to make sure you didn't throw out your bows or socks or toys.
- you are obsessed with the fireplace... i am NOT loving that ha... you climb up and throw or rake the rocks out... sometimes you just sit up there and sometimes you try to bring your toys up too
- along with knowing where your belly "button" is, you are learning your ears, teeth, tongue, and lips.
- you love looking out the back door- especially when you see foxy out there
- we are attached at the hip! I love that we are bffs but I hope you don't get kicked out of childcare when mommy starts back school (although I bet your grandmas hope you do)
- you are a water baby just like your parents! you LOVED our beach trip and you love to play in other water toys here
- you have two bottom teeth and one top tooth (on the left) that came in out of no where!
- mommy makes your food and it makes me eat a lot healthier too so we can share
- we get treats like smoothie king and after shots we get tcby!
- i let you take a bath while mommy takes a shower and we have so much fun! it's really the only thing I can do to keep you out of trouble :)
- you go up the stairs which is so difficult since they are wood all the way up! I wish we had carpet for the sake of your little knees!
- no steps yet! but i am more than okay with that! i can only image the more messes you'll get into!
- it's crazy seeing you grow... we used to put things on the coffee table so you couldn't get them, then we moved them to the middle, now we just have to take them to the kitchen. You can reach the tops of the toilets and the edge of mommy's desk!
I love you so much and I'm glad I can write you this note while you're sleeping. We have such busy days but I wouldn't trade it for anything! I hope one day you look back at this blog or the photos or just when you think about your childhood that you remember all the fun we had! I love my mini bff more than words can say!
Love,
Mommy

1 year!
Kinsley just celebrated her first year! (well, on May 20th). I'll post pics from her party in a separate birthday post!
Highlights from the first year include: rolling over, crawling, mama, dada, baba, nana, 2 bottom teeth, and many traveling adventures!
Currently she weighed in at 20lbs 50%, 28cm height 25th%, and 44cm head circ. 40%. She had to get three shots at her appt and it NEVER gets easier. We did go out for a treat to tcby for some fat free yogurt and strawberries that was delish!
We have fun do anything that involves water, bubbles, and riding. I have gotten into cooking a lot of healthy things for my baby girl which is kind of tricky considering she only has two teeth!
She enjoys wheat pizza rolls with homemade sauce, wheat pancakes and turkey sausage bites, strawberries, organic yogurt, bananas, organic whole milk, apple and sweet potato bake, and homemade chicken tender bites. We shop a lot at the farmers market to get a ton of fresh veggies and fruits, the fresh market, and trader joes (they have really good deals on wheat dough and fresh parmesan to name a few!) I can't wait for the whole foods to open! She also still breastfeeds once in the morning and once at night.
She is so much like her daddy! She is a good sharer and is always willing to give anyone what she has. She likes to clean. She is a cuddle bug! She doesn't like to be alone... if you leave the room she wants to join.
She is getting really attached now that I am home with her during the day. We have SO much fun playing and discovering new things that when I leave she gets really upset. I'm nervous about childcare in the fall when school starts back that she will throw a fit. But maybe she'll be better when other babies are around??
She can show you her tootsies (toes), her button (belly button, her bracelet, her nose, and her head. When a dog walks by or if she sees a monkey she goes (who-who-who) which sounds like either ha. She can almost say "moo" when you ask what a cow says. Recently when I sing she sings along. Precious! She can wave, give kisses, give it loves (hugs), and blow kisses. She understands what you are saying most of the time even though she can't put words to it quite yet. She loves to shake her head "no" even though it doesn't really have a meaning yet.
She gets into everything! She is particularly interested in the toaster oven, getting out every piece of it and trying to eat the burnt pieces stuck the plate. She also has always been interested in these little white caps that cover screws on the toilet. She can find them in every bathroom in every house. weird. She wants to eat gum wrappers, stick her hand in cups, take out everything from the waste basket, and tip over foxy's water & food.
I love her more than anything. I get a lot done while she naps and goes down at night, but I kinda miss her. She is my mini bff and I am so happy she's in my life.
