OUR BIG GIRL!

Aliya constantly amazes us with everything she knows and remembers. She can recognize a fair amount of the alphabet, knows a couple of their sounds and knows almost all of place on the computer. She has been able to use the computer all by herself for about a month now. She can sing a ton of differnt songs. She is a little "mommy" and is a big help when she wants to be. Just last night she went and got kleenex and wiped Brandon's nose because it was running. She is extrememly excited about going to Disney World and usually takes about it several times a day. She was too funny when Jamey was gone hunting for deer. I was telling her that I loved her and she said "where are you going?" "No where" I said. "OH, we're just gonna sit here and wait to daddy to get back with a big Ol Deer?". And a few days before the that Jamey was telling her not to do something and she said "Don't tell me no" Jamey said something to the effect of him being the boss and she said " YOU'RE NOT THE BOSS! MOMMY IS THE BOSS!" :)

She has one 2 year old all the way through, one part way on bottom and one on the top just starting to come through. Those have bothering her not to metion her current cold and just the fact she's two. She is too cute when she grabs books and reads them, making up the story as she goes, but often it's pretty close. She has an amazing memory! She loves animals, playing with her stuffed animals, her little doll house and in her closet. Latley she would play all day on starfall.com or Reader Rabbit if you would let her.

OUR LITTLE KYLIE!

Kylie's 3rd just broke through a few days ago and the forth will be here anyday. It's down as far as it can be without breaking through the skin. Her and Aliya both have colds and are feeling crummy but hopefully it will be gone soon. Kylie still doesn't like food much as all. She will eat a few bites of my oatmeal in the morning, likes to gnaw on apples, will eat cheerios, bologna of all things (although she mad not anymore it's been a few days since I tried it), pizza crust and graham crackers. Still no bananas, peaches, pears, noodles... I've lost count of what all I've tried. And usually it's better not to put her in the high chair to try something new or it's almost a given she won't want it. She LOVES riding on the 3 wheeler and 4 wheeler, the horse and zebra and will get so mad if she sees it but can't ride on it. She also really loves pushing them all over the place. She is soo busy and is always on the move. She really is strating to like puppets like her sister and flipping through books. She is starting to stand for a few seconds with out holding onto anything and will be walking before we know it. She is a monkey and will climb on top of bins on the floor or the 4 wheeler or try to climb up the pack n play. She loves swinging with her sister on the swingset, water - taking a bath or a shower. She is maniac in the bath tub, water ends up everywhere. She loves giving me eskimo kisses and just laughs and then gives me a big kiss!

9 MONTHS!

Kylie is pulling herself up on everything on walking along the furniture. She hates baby food! Well and food in general. Oatmeal was ok for a couple days but that was about it. No applesauce, peaches, bananas, rice cereal, I could go on and on. Her little giggle just cracks me up. She loves frozen wash cloths for her hurting teeth and gnawing on a cup but not so much trying to drink out of it. She is very busy. Likes to play and follow Aliya everywhere, ride the 3 wheeler, 4 wheelers, the horse, and really like the alaphebet train.
