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!

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).

Memorial Day at "Grampa's Pool" (apologies to Gramma)
Ever since we stopped by my parents' house a couple months ago and Kaylee saw they had the winter pool cover off and the bubble cover (to warm the water) on, she's been wanting to go swim at "Grampa's Pool" (apparently Gramma has no claim to it??) - as in asking at least 3-4 times a week when we're going to Grampa's Pool. We went today for a Memorial Day cookout/swim, and there was a 90% chance of rain/thunderstorms all day, but a huge downpour had ended just before we arrived this morning around 11, and it was hot and sunny for us the rest of the day! Kaylee probably got in about 4 hours of pool time (with a super 2.5+ hour nap in between) and we all had a great time.
Here's Kaylee in her patriotic outfit (check back July 4 for a repeat of the outfit!) with Daddy, Mommy (w/matching bows), Grampa & Gramma. She started out the day with a flag band-aid as well, but it fell off just before photos (the band-aid lasted about 24 hours, so it had a good life).
Pool time! She started off the day in her swim ring, but then we found out G&G had bought some arm floaties, and Kaylee did super amazing with them! She was able to move about more on her own than with the big ring and really loved swimming all over the pool with them. I think it was easier for her to get in and out of the pool without the big ring around her, as well. Yay, floaties!
The other day after I took some photos, Kaylee told me, "no pictures today! You already take pictures!" and she refused to pose for any more. She did the same again today at the pool! I was trying to get her to pose for the last one I posted here and she wouldn't stop playing to smile, then without looking up she yelled at me, "no pictures today!" She finally did pose for the one when I bribed her with some balloons - luckily I got the picture with one take, as she was not willing to stick around for any more tries!

Local Fair
A traveling fair was set up locally last weekend and we took Kaylee on Saturday. We were only there an hour and a half or so, but she definitely took full advantage of her unlimited ride pass! (Jamie and I just shared a bunch of tickets, as we took turns riding things with Kaylee. The only one we all rode together was the Ferris wheel.) Kaylee rode the Ferris wheel, elephant and train once, carousel twice, slide and cars 3 times and lady bugs 4 times, plus got some photos taken with Elmo. Whew!
She did not like the carousel - she rode it first with Jamie and he said she was asking him, "I like this? I like this?" while they were on it. She did say she wanted to go again with me, so we rode it and the whole time she was telling me she did not like it. Both times she had one hand on the carousel pole and the other clutching Jamie or me. After the second time on it, whenever we'd walk past it, she would make a point of saying, "I don't like the horses," and try to steer us away. At one point we were just waiting in the shade of the carousel for the train ride to stop and her eyes got big and she backed away saying she didn't want to ride the horses again. We had to explain we were just waiting for the train to stop and promise we weren't riding the horses again before she'd come stand with us again.
Overall, she had a blast and LOVED the lady bug ride! She rode that and the train on her own, but we had to ride everything else with her.
Kaylee was excited about seeing Elmo...until we got up next to him and he was 6 feet tall. She wasn't quite sure what to make of such a big Elmo. She sort of smiled for the photo, and reluctantly hugged him. Luckily she remembers it fondly, as when she saw the photos of her and Elmo together after we got home she got a big smile and said, "we see Elmo!" so it seems she wasn't scarred for life.
Too worn out on the way home to even eat her "special treat" - and that is saying something!!! She didn't fall asleep, but was on the brink.

Hot Fun in the Summertime
Yesterday we all went to the pool for the first time this season, and went back again today. Kaylee still loves it! Still using a swim ring like last year, but she's doing really well in the water and today even held her breath, pinched her nose and willingly dunked her face under a few times. Photos of the bathing beauty...
