Kinley 9 month plus

My sweet little Kinley. She will be 10 months this week and my how times flies. I need to back up a little and talk about month 9 first. At 9 months Kinley weighed 16 lb 6oz. She has two teeth on the bottom and we are waiting for the top two to break thru any day. She is crawling, well army crawling, everywhere. She doesn't crawl on all fours and I am not sure she will. She can get up on all fours but rather scoot on her belly and has no problem getting around that way so why would she change. She has the sweetest smile that will just put the biggest smile on your face. She loves to play and chase Kelvey and they are so funny to watch. She loves playing peek-a -boo and dumping all the toys on the floor for Mommy to pick up. She loves taking a bath, jumping in her jumper, and putting anything and everything in her mouth. She keeps me on my toes. She does not love baby food but is getting better but she loves to eat cheerios and anything Kelvey, Mommy or Daddy are eating. She would much rather eat table food but has not given me the confidence I need to go to it full time. We have started her on whole milk in a sippy cup and she enjoys that much of being a big girl.
She is going to be a blondie just like Kelvey. Her hair is coming in slowly but surely. Not sure if we will have curls but we didn't see Kelvey's until 12 months so we will have to wait and see.

She pulled up on the tub the first time the other day.
She really wanted that duck

There's that smile that will brighten any day

Kelvey update

Kelvey is 2 1/2 and getting so big. She is a wonderful big sister and so caring most of the time. We are in the middle of potty training and she is doing very well. I just worry about when we leave the house. She does not like to use the big potty so I am not sure how to tackle that one. I guess we will just have to take her potty with us. She moved to a big girl bed a couple of months ago and loves it. Again I worried about her getting out of bed at nap time and at night but she does really well and waits for Mommy or Daddy to come and get her. SHe loves all things arts, books, and baby dolls. She loves to brush her teeth and stay in her pajamas most of the day. I will say this is my fault. When I was sick I allowed this to happen since it was all I could to get up and make it thru the day. So know that the weather is getting nice I have quite a fit on my hands to get us dressed and ready in the mornings but it is getting better.

She loves to brush her teeth.

She loves her new swim suit that Grana bought her.
It was fun getting it off of her!!!

She surely got that from her Daddy:)

Matching Girls

I have the girls in matching or at least coordinating outfits 90% of the time but sometimes they are just really cute or are very meaningful to me.

These dresses Grana made and I just love them

These dress were just really cute and they were both in the posing mood.

Kinley was learning to sit up

Several weeks to catch up on

I have been a very bad blogger and I apologize to those of you that follow us. We have been really busy finishing a lot of things up. Basketball ended, Daddy finished all his classes and work and will be officially a doctor on May 8th. We are so very proud of him and his hard work and dedication the last three years. The girls and I are not sure how we are going to handle all this Daddy time but we are excited to figure it out.
Feb and March were hard on the girls and I. It seemed like they had colds all winter and then I got really sick and am just now starting to feel 100%.
I have so many picture to update so I will explain as we go.

Our first big snow came in the evening so we put Kinley to bed and decided that we would go play out in the snow at night. After all you never know how long the snow will stick around here in the south. I was afraid it would be gone in the morning and Kelvey would not get to play on snow.

Kelvey dressed to play in snow

She wasn't real sure at first.
It was not the easiest stuff to walk in with all those clothes on

Playing video games with Daddy

The snow did stay a few days and Kinley joined us for a bit

We don't buy sleds in the south
More than likely it would be a waste of money. So we make do with what we have.
This year we wish we had one. I think we will get one just in case we get a good snow again

We pulled her around the yard forever. She liked it as long as she was riding and not having to walk in it.
