There is nothing better, after a long night at work, then coming home to a beautiful baby girl so happy to see her mommy and daddy. When we arrived at my parents this morning we were glad to find them all looking well rested and smiling. After spending a little time together it was time for mommy and daddy to go home and get some rest. Kylie stayed with Auntie Melissa, Grandma and Grandpa for the next few hours. After a little rest time for Kylie and I, I picked her up and we went to lunch with Grandpa at Chipotle. We found out that Kylie can almost get herself all the way turned around in the restaurant highchair and that she enjoys little drops of water from my straw. A few times now, I have offered Kylie a drink with a straw, I show her how to drink out of it and she smiles, puts the straw in her mouth and drools. Today, however, she put her lips around and took a little sip. She got a nice drink of water and looked so surprised and happy. Of course she wanted to try again, but then she went back to just holding it in her mouth and drooling. One other time she actually sipped and got some water, yeah. She has been less and less interested in her sippy sup lately, not sure why, so I was excited to have her drinking a little more water.
Kylie has always been a pretty vocal little baby, but lately it seems like she is getting consistent with different "words." She seems to saw "wow" and "oh" often when we are showing her something. My parents said she was saying "ma ma ma ma" this morning and looking around for me. She still says "da da da da" every once in a while and in the past few days she has started pulling on my shirt and saying "nah nah nah." I also got report that when she sees a dog she says "doh doh." It is hard to tell how much is purposeful, but it is so fun to have her "talking" so much, I'm sure there will be days in the future when we will beg for moments of silence, but until then we love to have her chattering up a storm.
Craig is at work again tonight, we look forward to seeing him in the morning. I am still having problems with the photos, I have started deleting old blogs to try and create more space, but it does not seem to be working. If we can't get it figured out we might have to start a new blog or pay for more space. I can't believe we have been doing this for almost 9 months, it will be so great to have when Kylie gets older.
Ok off to bed, Kylie has been sleeping for 4.5 hours (with one minor wake up, I patted her back to sleep), it's amazing. But now that I have typed it she will probably wake up :o)
More to come soon,
Natalie
