I love this little girl!!!

Kaylee cracks me up. She is always changing and is learning something new all the time. She has rolled from belly to back a few times and almost from back to belly (if it wasn't for that arm). She doesn't quite have the hang of it yet but she is almost there. Kaylee has started blowing raspberries at us. It is so cute and she has learned to do it when she wants attention. If I'm in the kitchen and she is in her swing, you will hear her start blowing raspberries. Sooo funny... Anyway, here is a video of Kaylee blowing raspberries.

Three months old...


Wow… I can’t believe how fast Kaylee is growing. I can’t believe that she is already three months old. This is defiantly an exciting time and there is always something new happening. We had Kaylee’s first professional photos taken on Saturday and she did great. She was all about smiling and looking at the camera. She wasn’t shy at all; probably because she has only had a camera in her face everyday since she was born :)


We started blowing raspberries at her at her last week and she loves the noise. Today, she started doing it back to us. It is so cute and she makes a slobbering mess, but we love it.


Kaylee has almost mastered rolling from back to belly. She gets all the way over and is laying flat on her stomach, but her arm is still going across her so her shoulder ends up being all whopper jawed. About this time is when she starts screaming. I keep telling her she has to TUCK the arm and roll lol. She will get it sooner or later no doubt.

She doesn’t like to lie on her stomach for tummy time for very long, but she loves to lie on her back with her hands and feet in the air. She is still very fascinated by her hands.


Josh and Kaylee have a regular routine in the mornings now. When Kaylee gets up, they go into the OSU room and sit in the oversized chair and watch SportsCenter while she drinks her bottle. I think she definitely knows the SportsCenter music.


I am now only working 3 – 12 hour shifts. This gives me an extra day at home with my precious little girl.

Okay, that’s all I have for now, check out her very cute 3 month baby pictures.

Back to work...

Well I went back to work on Monday. It went pretty good. I have had to leave Kaylee for clinicals for 8 hours before, so I was use to it for the most part. Tuesday was another story... That was a 12 hour shift for me, and it was two days in a row away from Kaylee. On top of that, a storm knocked out the baby sitters phone for a little while (thank goodness for cell phones). Kaylee did fantastic at the baby sitters. They are both family, so everything went smooth. Kaylee has other kids there to entertain her all the time. Even though she did fine at both places, she was glad to get home to mommy and daddy:) This is certainly an adjustment period, but like everything else, we will get through it. Needless to say, I have barely set her down today. In fact, I am typing this one handed because she fell asleep in my left arm and she is too cute to lay down. The next 6 days are going to be rough. I work 2 days, then have clinicals 2 days, then work 2 more days before a day off with Kaylee.

We have had a busy two weeks. We went to the Jazz and Rib Fest downtown. Josh and I had a blast eating our favorite ribs that only come to town once a year. Kaylee enjoyed people watching and riding around listening to Jazz in her stroller. We got our ribs, found a grassy area under a tree, stretched out and listened to the music. It was great.

All last week we had a camp meeting at our church. We spent practically all day every day at the church so we had a nice little set up for Kaylee including her swing, bassinet, activity gym, and toys. Kaylee started working hard at rolling over. I think she is getting real close to conquering that feat.

Lastly, we went to the fair. We had a blast there too. Of course we ate some good food, but we also had a portrait of Kaylee drawn (too cute). Daddy bought her a shirt that says "I just did a Michigan in my pants". That's a true Ohio State fan :) We also got a picture frame with her name cut into it.

Some little tid bits of information:
  • Kaylee is holding her head up real well. She is just a little wobbly now and then.
  • Her neck and back strength is getting better. She can sit in her bumbo seat.
  • Josh bought her a Glow Worm that plays lullaby's that she absolutely loves.
  • Still has not found her thumb, but she has downsized to two fingers.
  • She is just a happy baby, always smiling.
