~Monthly Memories~

~January & February~

I've really slacked these past two months! We haven't had much going. Kimberly and I are pretty much home bodies and I have been growing this baby. 

Here are a few things in the past two months:

01. Kimberly is a pretty calm toddler when it is just her and I, But when a friend comes over, we go to someone's house, or we go out to the store she becomes this wild thing! It's entertaining for the first little while then mommy gets a little tired from chasing her!

02. Kimberly likes and sings along to "red solo cup" by Toby Keith (I know, I know.......) ha ha I promise I don't have it on an ipod or anything it is just when we are in the car and she hears it.

03. Kimberly is still a skinny girl. She can still fit in 18 month pants but they are getting to short, so we use a lot of safety pins on her 24 month pants. But she is in 2T t-shirts. (long body, short legs)

04. She is still a major thumb sucker and LOVES to drag her blanket EVERYWHERE. I try to put it up but when we are being lazy its hard for me to not let her use it.

05. When people come over I have noticed she asks them if they brought her a present!! hum....... Spoiled!?!

06. I still don't think she understands there is a baby in my tummy or how different it is going to be when baby gets here.

07. She is still a pretty good eater and will try everything but does like quesadillas , steak, french fries, roman noodles, mac & cheese, and grilled cheese sandwiches best.

08. Kimberly loves to dance and sing.

09. She thinks any kid we see is her 'friend'

10. We have started doing a movie night with her and I love it. We have started with old Disney movies, I love having a baby to enjoy them with. And don't forget the popcorn! ( she is just like her mom and loves popcorn)
11. She says 'mom', 'momma', and 'mommy' all the time but usually doesn't want anything! I will admit it get a little annoying sometimes (Like when I am driving in bad traffic)
12. Kimberly and mommy went down to St. George at the beginning of this month (Feb) and Kimberly got to have her first ride in a convertible (Aunt Kylees) and she LOVED it.
13. She pretty much wakes up between 8 and 830 these days. (oh the days when she used to sleep in until at least 10) 

:: Mommy & Daddy::
01. I am 31 1/2 weeks pregnant. (I can't believe how soon we are going to have another little one)
02. nausea has kind of come back, nothing like at the beginning of the pregnancy but just enough to be annoying. 
03. Daddy has been working a lot of overtime so we haven't had as much time with him.
04. We have been trying to get the house cleaned and organized before this new little one gets here.
05. Its hard to go shopping when you want to buy stuff for the new baby but don't know what sex to buy for! 

I'm sure there is more especially because I didn't do one last month but here is what I have for now.

18.She loves playing with her babies! Putting the baby in its stroller, wrapping it up in a blanket, giving it loves.
19.She walks on her knees all the time. (I don't know why she does this it seems like it would hurt her knees)
20. I got her to say gama (grandma), gapa (grandpa), mada (Maga), Papa, Keesh, Ky-ky, kenzi, Pa, na (natalie).
21. She isn't sleeping well these days. (I think it's because she is getting her first molar)
22. She does NOT care when I try to discipline her, she just laughs. (it makes me more angry but I know she doesn't total understand)
23. She loves talking to maga and family on skype!
24. She wants to take her silky blanket everywhere, She doesn't want to sleep without it! When I put her to bed she looks around until I give it to her.
25. If she doesn't want to do something or you do something to her that she doesn't like she says "awie" (Most of it doesn't hurt, I promise)

~Monthly Memories!~ :)

Here is a video I took with my cell phone. I love when she reads the books to me! Right at the end you can hear her say Dora. I tried to get the monkey lips but she just made the sound!

I think I am going to start an end of the month post so I can still put down things that Kimberly is doing/achieving: I need help on something good to call it like the couple others use for a weekly post are 'tuesday tidbits, wednesday write ups, friday favorites'

In the life of Kimberly age 13 months 1 week:

01. Starting to get daring and is trying to take steps. She has had one step here and there but usually ends up falling into our arms or down on the floor.
02. Does the sign for 'more', 'apple', 'all done'.
03. Points at EVERYTHING! That little finger is out all the time.
04. She picks up all of her food with her thumb and index finger. (including popcicles) She never grabs handfuls of anything.
05. She can say 'hi, mummy', "mummy", "diddy", "duck", "dora", "oo bear" (Pooh bear), "ig irg" (Big bird) "danku" (thank you), "pees"(please), "puppy", "aker" (craker), "ookie" (cookie) Most of them she will say on her own but some are only after we say them. I'm sure there are more but these are the ones I can think of. My favorite is "hi, Mummy" when I get her in the morning. Or like the other day when she was with jeremy all morning and then when I came up she kept looking at me and saying "mummy" until I would look at her and then go "Hi, Mummy" with a big smile! Melt my heart!
06. She LOVES to dance
07. She eats like a horse!! She eats pretty much every thing we give her. But does have a hard time with meat so she usually doesn't want it. But does like chicken. She says chicken also but when she says it, it sounds like turkey for some reason!!!
08. She smiles at everyone and usually will say "hi" if people say it to her.
09. When she waves hi or bye its the exact same. (she waves her fingers towards her body and says "hi")
10. She loves to read her books and will bring them to us all day long for us to read them to her.
11. She loves Dora. When we are at the store she will Always find the Dora stuff, point to it and say Dora.
12. She does fish lips and monkey lips when you ask her what those animals do.
13. She gives a lot of kisses and loves. She will lean towards you with her chin up in the air and go "mmmmm" (kiss) and her loves are putting her head on you and say " awhhh".
I'm sure there is more but this is a pretty good list for now!
