Sweet Summer

The ladies are getting so big, and I just love watching them grow up!  Kya has moved up to the four-year-old class at her daycare and has already made new friends.  Eric and I were talking about how she pronounces everything correctly now, except for a few things.  

1. Each udder (Each other)
2. Nuffing (Nothing)
3. I can't think of anything else....

She continues to expand her vocabulary and has started arguing with me like a teenager as if she knows everything.  I love that she tries to use reasoning to convince me she is right, but was not expecting to deal with this so soon!  She made my night this week when she asked to go on a date with me and have girl time - Eric typically takes her on a dessert date on Thursdays, but we went together instead.  I was sad for Eric but pumped that she wanted to spend time with me.

She also is not scared to just be herself.  If a song she likes comes on in a store, she will stop what she is doing and immediately start singing as loudly as possible with motions and everything - especially if it is a song from Frozen.  She makes friends very easily, and I am soooo thankful for that.  Any time we go anywhere with a playground, she tries to meet new kids.  


Sweet sisters!


And then, there is sweet, smiley Bailey.  She is now 6 months, and the sweetest little baby ever.  She is still a great sleeper and loves laughing.  She can sit really well - it kind of took me by surprise, like all of a sudden she could sit!  I hate that I miss so much because I am working.  She changes so quickly!  I am very thankful for the ladies at her daycare and how much they love and care for her, though.

I love sitting!


We love the jumper!

At her 6 month appointment, she came in at 17 lbs 13 oz (75th) and 26.5 inches (75th).  Her head was 85th percentile.  Again, thankful for a healthy  baby!  She did so good with her shots and only cried a little after the third.  The nurse at the girls' doctor is amazing at giving shots super quickly.  

She is still eating so well, and we are about to start the stage 2 foods.  She eats everything we have given her except for peas.  She also loves to put everything in her mouth with tags being her favorite thing to chew on....
