Khloe

I've been wanting a puppy for a while now because Kaylee really loves animals...John kept saying that he didn 't want one and they were too much work so I kind of figured well whatever..maybe one day!! So last Thursday he called and said he was working late but actually he was going to pick up our new puppy he got me for my birthday. Khloe is an American Bulldog/Boxer mix...aka a bulloxer!! She is such a good dog...we got her when she was 8 weeks and she is already potty trained which is such a blessing!! Her and Kaylee get along really well...Kaylee loves to kiss her and gets so excited every time she sees her. Khloe puts up with Kaylee really well...Kaylee pulls her ears and tail and Khloe just lays there and takes it. I originally wanted to name our next baby Khloe if it was a girl...but they had already named the dog when we got her so we decided to let her keep her name and pick a new one for the baby!!
Khloe all cuddled up after her first bathI took this picture of her next to my purse so everyone could see how small she is. It won't last for long!! Mami and Khloe...she loves to be cuddled and whines when you put her downKaylee and Khloe..I had to trap them in this basket so I could try to get both of them in the picture.

3 Months

Everyone has been asking when I was going to post a belly picture...so here it is! This was a few weeks ago...I think I was 13 weeks!! Everything is going pretty good so far with this pregnancy!! It seems to be going by much faster that Kaylee's did...I guess thats cause I am so much busier now..lol!! I went to the doctor yesterday and the baby looked great...the heartbeat was 160 which they said was very strong. I go back on May 8th for my ultrasound to find out the sex...I can't wait. I have a strong feeling that it's another girl..but then again I was just sure that Kaylee was a boy!! So who knows!! Check back on the 8th for the results..I'll be sure to post as soon as I get home!

Baby Swing

John's mom and dad got Kaylee this baby swing for her birthday and she is having a blast with it...she wasn't too sure if she liked it the first time we put her in it because she doesn't like to be strapped into anything. But now she cries when we take her out of it...she will swing for an hour if you let her!! I'm sure were going to get lots of use out of this thing this summer.

Baby Doll Stroller

Kaylee got a baby doll stroller and pack-n-play from my mom for her birthday..since the stroller is so light weight she could not push it around without falling...instead she would put her babydolls in the pack-n-play and push tht around the house. We decided that we needed to put something a little heavier in the stroller so she could push it...so this is what we came up with.


Kaylee thought it was so funny to push Lily around..and Lily thought it was pretty funny too. Kaylee cried when Lily's mom came to get her and we had to take her out of the stroller..HaHa

Dora Room

For Kaylee's birthday my mom and I re-decorated her room in Dora the Explorer. I thought that since she was going to be a big sister it was time to change her room to something more toddler instead of baby. I wanted to do a princess themed room but John liked Dora and I thought it was cute so thats what we went with. We got the bed set and my mom was able to find a Dora couch, table and chairs and curtains...When we first took Kaylee into her room after we changed it she got this big smile on her face and started pointing at all her new Dora stuff...she couldn't believe it was actually her room..lol..it was so cute!! She loves the couch..it's really cute, it lets out into a bed and she thinks it's the best thins.,we bring it downstairs when we are watching TV and she will lay on her couch like such a big girl!! Here are some pictures of her new room.

1 year old!!!

Last Thursday was Kaylee's first birthday. We can't believe that a whole year has already gone by. Kaylee is such a sweet girl (most of the time), she is starting to test her boundaries and have an attitude when she doesn't get her way. We are trying to get this under control quickly so we don't have too much of a problem later. She is a very good eater, she will eat almost anything you give her. Fruit and yogurt are her favorites. I was really hoping she would start walking by her birthday...but she didn't!! She will walk all over the place if you hold her hand or if she is pushing a toy, but as soon as you let her go she sits down...I know she could do it if she tried she is just not confident enough yet. We are loving the warm weather and are hoping to be swimming and hitting the beach in a few weeks..Kaylee was too small to really enjoy summer last year but I know we are going to have lots of fun this summer. Kaylee loves to be outside!!!

The day after her birthday Kaylee had her one year check-up at the doctor...she had her re-check for anemia and they said everything is great..she is no longer anemic!! No more stinky poly-vis-ol. She weighed 23 1/2 pounds and I'm not sure what her height was...but they did say she wasn't very tall for her age. I asked the doctor if we should be concerned about her weight and they said not at this point...they said she is perfectly healthy and she will slim up when she starts walking. She also got her 12 month shots...this was the first time she got shots in her arms instead of her legs and I think it was a little more traumatic...she was not a happy girl until she got her lollipop..haha!!! Here are some pictures from our visit..I will be posting more pictures soon from her birthday party so stay tuned!!Enjoying her lollipop on the way from the doctor....she was soo sticky!!
