We went over to April's this afternoon for a couple of hours so the kids could play. Connor is two weeks older than Kailey and both are really into playing so we thought this would be a blast. They had so much fun together and we had tons of fun watching the two of them interact. Kailey was in total excitement overload that included full body vibration and panting like a puppy...go figure. 
She loved all his toys, especially his toy truck. They played so well together and wanted the same toy all the time. The sweetest thing happened....Kailey kissed Connor on the top of his head. It was adorable. Any time he was in her reach she would stoke his head and smile. This must have felt good to Connor because he rested his head on her lap and she took both her hands and grabbed his head and gave him a big ol' sloppy kiss on the top of his head. AWWWWWWWW.....sooooooo cute. The other funny thing was they started 'dancing' together to a really annoying song on Treehouse. One would start bobbing and the other would join. Tons of fun and I cannot wait to do this again. She was late for her nap so when we got home she had a bottle and crashed for 2 and a half hours.
Yeah....little miss chicky poo has decided to kick things up a notch and crawl around the house all day in turbo. Nothing is safe. The dog water was all over her before I realized what she was up to, she was pulling the cable out from under the couch and love seat, she crawled in the bottom half of our credenza and knocked over the little trunks I have there...needless to say major baby proofing has begun. She is wild and appears to only have one speed - fast fast fast. The days of sitting nicely on her mat looking at toys are over I guess. She is so funny to watch. A couple of the dogs have found some good hiding spots when she is cruising around and Zoe thinks that it is cool to quickly lie down in her path so Kailey can practice crawling over things (Thanks for that Zoe)hahaha.
This sweater set was made over 30 years ago by my Nan (Nana to Kailey) and I wore this. The booties fit her perfectly and the little sweater is so soft and cute on her.
Best friends. This is pretty much as far from Kailey as Zoe likes to be. She is such a great dog and really helps out with keeping Kailey safe. I will put her in a down by the coffee table and she acts as a blocker. She loves Kailey sooooo much and I can really see these two being best friends for a long time.
This was taken yesterday at the Marina. It was a nice day so we took K and Parker for a walk and about 20 min into our walk it poured. We were soaked!!! Kailey was bone dry and enjoying some milk and puffs while looking at the scenery. When we got to the truck (after jogging back) she was ticked that her walk was cut short and proceeded to shove every last puff in her mouth...waste not want not...hahaha.
Check out this smiley girl!! We are on our way to The Woof Inn to see Jackie and Uncle Fraiser.
It has been a while since I posted so I thought I would give you all a K-Bear update.
She loves feeding herself and I guess giving herself a drink also rates high in her books. She is only having three bottles now so it really feels like she is growing up. :-(
shopping for winter clothes for her as I noticed while cleaning out her closet and drawers that she has one winter top and one thicker pair of jeans and that is all. She grew out of everything. I loove the clothes I found (couple sweaters, couple long sleeve shirts, pair of yoga pants...hahaha and I am waiting for the next Mexx shipment to come in for winter jeans. I only wish I could find some of the stuff in adult sizes. The weather has been awful lately so we have been stuck in the house so I plan to take her out whenever she gets up from this nap. Cabin Fever is setting in for both of us.
Char, Ron and Julie came camping Monday and left this morning. What a blast we had with them and it was so cool to now have Miss Kailey here to participate in the activities. Last year when they came camping it looked like I was hiding a watermelon in my shirt and here she is. She was quite the trooper and, once again, she impressed me with how adaptable she is.
There were some days that we got to the campsite at 3pm and stayed until after 10pm. She was quite content to sit on a blanket with some toys on the beach and watch all the goings on. She had all her meals in her stroller and crashed out at her usual bedtime with her binky and her blankets while we hung out around the fire. She woke up smiling and when it was time to go and went right to bed when we got home. Nan (my Mom) came back with me from Edmonton and stayed until Wednesday so we had a ton of fun especially when we took her to Clark's for lunch with us and she was waving at the waitresses and staring down this cute little boy at the table next to us. I got to have a 'girl's night' with Julie which I will remember forever and was introduced to the phenomenon that has taken over pre-teens/teenagers called 'High School Musical'. 
This weekend was a busy one for Kailey and I. My Nephew turned 1 and the party was in Edmonton. Robbie was totally charming and I was so excited to see the two little ones interact - hilarious. "oh, you have ears too!", "may I touch your hair?", "lets see that toy". Very fun to watch.
Monday Jack's parents came from Anaheim California to visit Miss K and Tuesday Ryan (Jack's Brother) came from Little Rock Arkansas to meet his Niece for the first time. Grandma and Grandpa just left for home with many tears shed. Uncle Ryan is staying until Tuesday. Kailey is truly one lucky girl to have so many people in her life that love her to pieces. We had the most amazing visit and Kailey immediately warmed up to everyone so we didn't have to get through the 'playing shy' stage at all. Our visit was spent with trips to the swings, a day at the beach, visits to the Marina and a special family supper at Clarks. Kailey was a trooper for it all. She loves her family and it saddens me to be so far away from everyone. I guess it makes the time spent together all the more memorable. She showed them everything cool that she does from summoning the dolphins (high pitch squeals) to her deep throaty laughs. It was a pleasure to have them and I am very excited to find out that they are going to try to make it for Kailey's one year Birthday party in Edmonton....yahooooo!!!!
