Kaylee {3 years old}

I am in denial that I am writing this write now. My baby girl is 3 years old! WTH! The past three years have literally flown by and here I am with a little girl, not a baby, not a toddler. She's growing up right before our eyes and into an adorably smart young lady!

{Signature moves}

She love to play doctor. We all get about 15 check ups a day and numerous amounts of shots. She is recently afraid of the dark, which means midnight waking's. Which are not fun for mom or dad. She says the most adorable things, including telling us we are her best friend! Awhh.

A few of her favorites are waffles, yogurt, grapes, strawberries, cheeseburgers, french fries, granola bars, oatmeal, fruit snacks, hot dogs, noodles, cheese, peanut butter and corn. 

{Favorite activities}

She loves gymnastics! She is in the 3 year old class now and she does it all by herself out there! So big! She loves to buckle herself into her car seat and she LOVES to go shopping. She also loves to be outside, when I tell her it's too cold to go outside she says "but we can put on our coats and hats!" She loves a good dance party! Loves when we turn music on and dance around! Holding and "helping" with Jordan, even when he doesn't want her to hold him!

{Least favorite activities}

Being told "No". She has entered the age of the temper tantrum. The terrible threes. It's not my favorite. But, her sweet moments outweigh the bad ones!

{Favorite sayings}
"sooooo" and also repeating anything we say! She loves to sing. Some of her favorite songs are twinkle twinkle little star, Shakey Shakey (Taylor Swift: Shake it off), Let it go, Daddy finger, Farmer and the Dell and Sunshine

She knows a TON of songs and cheers. And she can spell her name out loud. Currently practicing 10-20 counting and recognizing. 6-10 in Spanish and tracing her letters.

{Misc}

{3rd Birthday}
For her birthday. Chad is building a bunch of new stuff for the playroom. Storage racks, a "zoo", a doctor station and a market stand! She had a big party with all her family and friends. It was Doc McStuffins themed, her favorite. She wore her doctor's jacket that she got for her birthday! She had a ton of fun celebrating with everyone and eating CAKE!

{Christmas}
Christmas was so much fun this year. She got really into Santa and the spirit of things. She asked for a doctor's kit, which was her favorite! She also got a soccer ball and goal, play doh, clothes, swim suit, Doc McStuffins ambulance, books, and legos!

 {Dress up}
This is probably her newest favorite thing! She got a bunch of dress up for her birthday including: Doc McStuffins, Elsa, Tiana and Rapunzel.

 {Halloween}

Kaylee wanted to be a minion for Halloween this year. She was really into Despicable Me at the time (and still likes to watch it from time to time)! She was the cutest Minion on the block! Her and dad carved pumpkins which she loved and obviously trick-or-treat was her favorite thing ever!

 {Pacifier} 

Shortly after her birthday we made her give up her paci. She actually did remarkably well! Basically didn't give us much trouble and even went right to sleep the first night without it. She does wake up earlier in the mornings, which kinda stinks but so proud of her for giving it up without a fight! I think that I was dreading it more than she was!

Baby J {9 Months}

9 Month Favorites::

Waking up - This is his best/favorite time of day. Right after he wakes up in the AM or right after his naps. Extra happy and smiley!

I've been putting jars into pouches and he just sucks them right down! Favorites include: Pears/Pea, Peach/Green Bean, Banana/Squash, Apples/Carrot, and Mango/Sweet Potato.

This is such a fun age. I remember this being one of my favorite of Kaylee's stages. He is so funny, smiley and fun! Loves interacting with us, climbing on us and playing! Starting to take in the world around him and learn, learn, learn!

We love you little man! You are so much fun! I feed you every night before bed in your room and soak in every moment of you being this little because I know it won't last! I LOVE to kiss your cheeks and everyone that meets you comments on how cute and chubby those cheeks are! You are my sweet little guy!
