19 & Counting...

I noticed earlier today that Kaylee's 19th tooth (top right 2nd year molar) has popped through her gums a little. Just the top left one to go and she'll have all her baby teeth!

Lake Chatuge

A couple weeks ago we went to Lake Chatuge for the day to celebrate Poppy's birthday. They rented a pontoon boat and we went out on the lake for an hour and a half or so. Kaylee had been on a boat a couple times, but it was a year before at my aunt/uncle's house in Maine.

Out on the dock:


Fun on the boat:


Kaylee tried to skip her nap, but it caught up with her on the boat - she was zonked for 45 minutes while my arm fell asleep under her!


Happy to help drive, then refueling after all that work:


Happy birthday, Poppy!

Fireworks & July 4th

We took Kaylee to see fireworks for the first time this year. She loved it! July 4 was Sunday, and fireworks near us were Friday, Saturday and Sunday nights. We went Friday night with a bunch of neighbors. The kids all had fun throwing pop & snaps (see 1st pic of Kaylee solo; she was having fun, but looks really tired in this photo - it was already past her bedtime at that point), waving sparklers and wearing glow bracelets...and staying up late. :) While watching the fireworks, Kaylee went back and forth between sitting with Jamie and sitting on the blanket on the ground. She kept popping up, throwing her hands in the air and exclaiming, "that was a BIG one!" when some of the bigger fireworks exploded.



On the 4th, we went to my parents' house. About 25-30 people were there over the course of the day. Kaylee wanted to get in the pool first thing, of course! We managed to take a few photos with her in her 7/4 outfit first. Here she is with Baba (Jamie's mom), Grampa (my dad), and me and my youngest brother Jeff - all in our red holiday shirts.


Kaylee enjoyed trying to help her cousin Lillian open some gifts. She also had a great time in the pool both before and after lunch (hence the suit change). She really liked riding on the crocodile this time. Last photo is Grampa with his two granddaughters.

Knock, Knock!

Kaylee's learned her first knock, knock joke:

Knock, knock!
Who's there?
BOO!
Boo who?
Don't cry, it's just me!

I helped her with it twice and now she's got it!

Happy Father's Day!

Tooth #18

I just noticed that Kaylee's lower left 2nd year molar has broken through, so she's up to 18 teeth now (or partial teeth...the other lower back molar's still not completely in and it's been nearly 2 months since I first noticed it!). Just an update, as this is how I more easily keep track so I can fill in her baby book later. :)

2, 2, 2 & 2

Kaylee's age ticker says she's 2 years, 2 months, 2 weeks and 2 days old today (2-day? hah). If it counted time, she'd be 2 years, 2 months, 2 weeks, 2 days, 2 hours, 2 minutes and 2 seconds old at 1:02:02 pm today (well, not sure about to the second, but she was born at 11am).
