TGIF

 So, I wasn't even going to post this photo of Kyley and I but it's Friday and I am in a good mood!  I do not seem to put on makeup or do my hair these days (for the past 10 months) unless I am headed out to work.  I figure it makes no sense to if no one is going to see me, and it just ends up all over her.  In addition I always have some crazy facial expression because I am trying to get her to smile or laugh.  Anyway, these are the days that Jason decides he WILL take pictures, and I of course want pictures of Kyley and I.  Oh well, all that matters is that she looks cute as a button.  And yes...I purposely put us both in pink that day! 

As I am sure you all know by now, Kyley has quite the little or shall I say BIG personality.  She often gives me these looks like "what are you doing now" or "seriously, another picture".  I cannot get enough of her...I cannot help it!  She is my special little girl and my only child.  I want to capture every bit of her childhood that I can, especially since I do not have a picture of myself as a baby to speak of.  Not only do I want to remember every bit of it, I want her to have the special memories and the ability to share them when she is older.  Back to her personality...it is getting bigger every day.  She is more and more vocal with her wants and needs, and she does not stop until she gets what she wants or needs.  Yes, I know that I am the one that determines when and if that happens, but you all know what that outcome is.  Sure I may regret it later, but I also know that we will have a special bond and that matters more to me right now.

 Kyley is truly a goof ball.  She is always ready to smile or giggle or scream something wild.  And, she loves her doll.  It somehow disappeared into the toy totes for a week or so, but when it resurfaced she went nuts.  She reaches for it first thing every day.  Kyley loves to sit and play and play and play.  She will alternate between toys over and over again and can play forever.  And, she is absolutely sitting up on her own...100%...no falling or forgetting that she is.  If I am not right behind her she will check every five minutes to make sure I am close by though. 

Kyley has a few other favorites...her table, her musical book, a block, her rings, her purple kitty blanket from great grandma, and her pink $.99 ball from Walmart.  She and her daddy play catch and she gets so excited to hear him say "Good job, Kyley".  She also know leans against it on her knees and blows on it to make the sound it does when I blow on her belly to make her giggle.  It continues to amaze me how much she pays attention, imitates and learns.  Kyley and I have made it through another week of this Winter, and we had fun doing it.  But, we are happy about two things...that is is Friday and Spring is just around the corner!
