Likes her train toy

We had my parents over last night for a visit. It was a lot of fun once Kaylee woke up. She was sleeping at first because she's so tired after daycare, especially since she's sick right now. She woke up and at first she was real crabby but when she opened her eyes and saw her grandma/pa sitting there, she quickly perked up and smiled. They loved seeing her crawl better and kept on trying to get her to crawl to them or to a toy. My mom helped me give her a bath before bedtime, and was amazed to hear Kaylee say "duck" when she saw the rubber ducky. She was very tired when they left and only woke up once during the night.

She has some car toys but doesn't seem very coordinated about pushing them around. Eric bought her a train toy yesterday that is bigger and links together. She had a blast last night pushing it around and turned herself around and around on the floor. She loved banging her train into her other toys too and seeing things push around. She was very absorbed with it, trying to figure it out. It's so cute to see her puzzle over things. She's doing that a lot more and hasn't been shouting as much as she was before (out of frustration).

At daycare they've been saying that she is so petite. They say she's the smallest one but the oldest. They think she's really really cute and definitely say they will miss her when she's not in the infant room next month. She is smaller than the other babies, but the other babies are quite huge - for example there's a 5 month old that weighs 19 lbs. That is big! There's a baby that is one week younger than Kaylee that is 26 lbs! Wow! Her mom has to bring in a stroller everyday to pick her up because carrying her all the time is taxing on her (I know this feeling all too well as well). So I don't think it's that Kaylee's so small but as the other babies are formula-fed and are much larger. They don't protest the bottle-feeding and solid-feeding the way that Kaylee does. But Kaylee is still quite healthy, with chubby cheeks and is still heading toward her 1st year birthday looking like she will manage to triple her weight from her birth weight (that's the norm). She is about 20 lbs now. My little baby isn't so little anymore!
