When I think of Kylie I think of many different things; her beautiful hair, cute little smile, sweet personality and ability to be in a good mood and friendly in just about every social situation, and the list goes on. However there are a few things waiting to get on the list, one of them being " able to relax and take a nap when tired." Over the past few days Kylie has been so busy it seems she has forgotten that she is little and needs to take naps. She goes from being regular happy Kylie, she starts to get a little tired (maybe a yawn, rubbing the eyes) and then within seconds she has snapped out of it and has moved on to wild, crazy, hyperactive monkey mode. Now don't get me wrong, she is still just as sweet and pleasant as can be, but good luck trying to get anything done (i.e. diaper change). Until now I have been able to catch her when she gets sleepy, nurse her and put her down for a nap (most of the time), but today she was to quick for me. Our morning nap was not to much of a battle, but this afternoon you should have seen the circus; very sleep baby turned wild monkey while her mommy and daddy tried to contain her :o) After about 30 minutes of good effort, I decided that Kylie won, it must be play time and not nap time, but as soon as I put her down she started to fuss. So that went of for another hour until she decided that, in fact, a nap did sound like a good idea, silly girl.
It seems like Kylie is at a stage right now where she is developing so many new skills. Her little body and brain are so busy learning that it is hard to take a break. It is truly amazing to watch her grow and change everyday, even if it means we don't get good naps in :o)
Kylie got to spend some time with grandma, grandpa, Uncle Tim and Auntie Melissa this evening, she sat at the table and ate a nice big dinner then showed off how she can push the box around the kitchen, took a quick bath and was just about to melt down when I walked in the door, perfect.
I'm sure someone took a photo of her today, but it didn't make it to the blog, we will have some tomorrow for sure! Can't wait to see the Johnson family tomorrow, we leave when Craig gets off work, I hope Kylie enjoys the car ride and Craig can sleep, we will see :o)
More to come soon,
Natalie
