In August I took this sweet girl in for her routine checkup.
She is getting so big. Already up to 21 lbs (It took us forever to get her big sister to this point). She is only 9 lbs less than Ashlyn and is catching up in height to. She has 12 teeth so far and is constantly drooling, so I'm sure her molars are trying to come in.
Kaylee isn't really trying to talk yet. I've heard from some people that this is very normal for the second child because the first child generally does the talking for them. This is not the case for Miss Kaylee Cakes. She simply isn't even trying. We'll just have to see if she's like her older sister (Ashlyn didn't start really talking until 27 months of age).
She definitely reminds me of Ashlyn at this age. She doesn't like to wear shoes and is starting to fight me on keeping her clothes on-although she's not nearly as bad as Ashlyn was and is. She also likes to take her diaper off anytime she feels it is ready to be changed.
Kaylee is very quick with her motor skills and has a very good understanding of what we are saying and asking. Almost anything we ask her to do she can do without too much help. She truly is a sweet spirit.
Some of the things she loves to do include: dancing to ring around the rosy, climbing on everything, taking baths, following Ashlyn around, and riding in the van. She has taken a recent liking to hot dogs (cold or warm) and cookie dough.
Her biggest challenges right now are attending nursery and separation anxiety. She is such a momma's girl.
Shehas dropped her morning nap but is still very good about going down in the afternoon and then at 8 pm every night. It makes bedtime with her so easy! Love and am grateful that we don't have to battle with her like we do her big sister.
So blessed to haver her in my life. We both learn from each other on a daily basis and she is slowly helping me to become the mother I need to be. Love ya Kaylee Cakes!
