11 months old!!!!

Kaylee and Wyatt are 11 months old today. It is still hard to believe that they will be 1 in a month!

They are growing so much...they are no longer little babies but more like toddlers everyday. Their personalities are really starting to show, Kaylee loves her babies; she will give them hugs and kisses, and when you ask her where her baby is she will go and get it. She is really starting to share everything with people. She now has 3 teeth and is working on number 4! Wyatt, he loves his cars. He makes a sound when he is pushing them around...too cute! He is just beginning to share things, but not as consistently as Kaylee. He is getting alot better at walking on his own. He still crawls but getting much more confident in his walking skills!

Here are what they are doing now:
Kaylee:
  • shares
  • hugs and kisses baby
  • showing a much better understanding of what you say/ask her
  • completely on finger foods-does not like using a fork, but loves using her fingers
  • still not sleeping through the night
  • loves walking around the furniture, but still not to keen on walking by herself.
  • is a huge cuddle bug...she loves to give and recieve hugs!
  • says, mom, dad and I think she is trying really hard to say "here". She says this when ever she gives you something...ahh, manners already...I like it :)

Wyatt:

  • getting more and more confidence in walking independantly
  • loves his cars.
  • completely on finger foods, likes to eat by himself, but when he is tired, he prefers you to feed him off of a fork
  • still nor sleeping through the night
  • eye hand co-ordination is great, he loves putting things into containers
  • says mom, and dad.

Both of them now race to the door when daddy gets home from work. If daddy does not pick up Wyatt up when he gets his shoes off, Wyatt gets really upset. Both the kids need to give daddy welcome home hugs. It is so great to see. The kids are so happy and it always makes daddy smile :)


Yesterday when we were in the car, Kaylee and Wyatt did the cutest thing ever. I wish I would have had my camera handy, but my memory will have to do. They were in their carseats and they were holding hands and talking to one another. How sweet!

So we have the birthday invites done for their 1st birthday party. We will be having it October 4th. I am looking so forward to this celebration.

I have found a perfect pattern so I will be making their birthday outfits. I have bought the material and I am so excited to see how the finished products will look.

This has been a very busy week for us, but a good week: On Sunday we were at Kayne's geido's for dinner. It was a quiet evening out and it was nice to see everyone as it had been awhile. On monday we were at my moms for a family dinner, there were a few of us there and it was loud with 6 youngsters playing but it was worth it. It was nice as we were able to see uncle mouse again!

Then Wednesday grandma and grandpa(Kayne's parents) came over for dinner. We had homemade spaghetti sauce and noodles...yummy. They had a really nice time playing with Kaylee and Wyatt. Kaylee recieved her very first designer purse. Grandma bought Kaylee a Guess purse!! Yup, thats right...mommy does not have one, but Kaylee who is 11 months old does...LOL...I think mommy may have to borrow this sometimes :)

On thursday, Uncle Mouse and Marleen, along with Kathy, Matt and Emily came over for dinner. We had homemade hambergers that Kayne BBQ'ed...they were so yummy! This was a great evening. We just sat back, played with the kids and chatted. I made a scrap book for Uncle Mouse and Marleen, of Kaylee and Wyatt for the 1st 11months. They LOVED it!!! I was so happy. When making this book I learned that we already have so very many pictures and I have ALOT of favorites.

On Friday, we mainly had a quiet day, but then went bowling with the family. It was alot of fun, and I truly need to practice my skills at bowling...the first game my score was 59 and the second game it was something like 104. I have mastered the art of gutterballs!!! Both Kaylee and Wyatt helped me push a ball down the lane, it was so cute. They really had no idea what was happening, but the had fun with a big ball!

Then today, we did a couple of errands and that was it, just a nice relaxing day at home...playing on the floor, and making a huge mess with toys. But there was alot of laughter and smiles so it was all worth it!

Tomorrow, I will be starting to do the prep work in Wyatts room, and who knows, I may get the first coat of primer on. I was hoping to have him in his own room by tomorrow, but with such a busy week, I put things on hold so I could rest and spend time with the kids and family. I am looking forward to getting this room done. I am really hoping that by seperating them during the night that they may actually sleep better. It seems that they wake each other up, so I am keeping my fingers crossed that them being in their own rooms that it will make a difference. But i will keep that updated. I will be so excited when they sleep through the night!
