Sorry again for the lack of posts. I promise our lives aren’t that busy, it just always slips my mind to post on here. Kaitlyn has been doing great, as always! She’s getting bigger and bigger each day, and her vocabulary is just expanding so much. She loves to relive moments and tell us about them. I love the way she uses hand gestures to try to tell us what she’s saying. She also is getting much better at linking words together like Down Please, Thank You Daddy, Hi Mommy, I Need That (and of course she needs everything!), and a few more. I really just need to sit down one day and write down all of the words she can say now.
Have I mentioned she can run fast?!? She loves to be chased and she really takes off when we chase her. As most of you know I work at The Little Gym. Kaitlyn takes classes there Thursdays with Sean and has already learned a lot. Her new favorite thing to do is hang off of the parallel bars. Her love for hanging on the bars has come too. The other day she decided to grip onto Papito’s countertops and hang from there, and she also grabbed onto the grocery cart handle and hung from there too.
Kaitlyn is obsessed with Elmo. She has known who Elmo is for a while now even though she never really watched Sesame Street. Papito bought Kaitlyn an Elmo Goes Potty DVD as well as one of Elmo’s movies and she always asks to watch Elmo. She also enjoys singing. We bought her a Playhouse Disney CD to play while we’re in the car and she LOVES the Ooh Ooh & Aah Aah song. It’s adorable listening to her singing the song. She’s always loved music though! She still enjoys watching the Baby Einstein DVDs and listening to all of that classical music. Oh, have we mentioned Kaitlyn can play the trumpet? Uncle Anthony taught her how to blow into the trumpet and she actually gets a pretty good sound out of it! We have one of Sean’s old ones from college at our house that is with her toys and she plays every couple of days. Who knows, maybe she’ll be a professional trumpet player?
So the next big event is Kaitlyn’s 2nd Birthday! It is hard to believe that in only 19 days, our little baby girl will be 2! She has grown so much lately, you can definitely see the transition into becoming a toddler! It is exciting that she becoming a toddler only because she is starting to do more things, but boy do I miss my little baby. Speaking of birthday, I need to start ordering her decorations. I already have her birthday outfit ordered and her invitations sent, but I still have a lot to do. So on that note, sorry again for the lack of posts but for those of you that still read this just email me when I start getting lazy again! We love you all!
