Update

New phrases from Kaylee:
“Bye Bye Daddy, I love you”
“Momma, Come on”
“I’m tired”
“Momma, play with ball.”
“Down. Toys”
“Time for baf time”
“I’m happy”
“Baby clap” (with baby doll)
“Thirsty” (trying but not said quite right)
“Chocolate” (she was being a stinker and picking out just the chocolate chips from her banana bread – but can’t say she’s not just like her Momma in this respect)
“Hi Jactis (Jackson), good boy!”
“Move Jactis”
And on and on

Kaylee has been having bad night for about the last 3 weeks. She wakes up violently crying from no crying to crying loud/hysterical. So, we got a little worried. We started her on some gas drops Saturday night and the violent crying stopped. She still woke up. But then last night – Hallelujah!- she finally slept through the night! She had a late night snack, bath time, bottle and gas drops and then slept from 8:30-7! No waking at all – not even any whining! First time in a long time (months)! Yes! We will attempt to repeat the experience as closely as possible to get her to keep it up! Wish us luck!

Kaylee is eating so much better – she’s trying things – she’s even trying to use her spoon (“poon-s”) and fork. It’s funny to watch sometimes. She takes the corn puts it with her hand on the spoon and then into the mouth, and then other times she does it correctly. Sometimes, she’s just like “screw it” and grabs a huge handful and crams it in her mouth (which I delight in since seeing her cram any food whatsoever in her mouth still amazes me). I’m hoping we will see her fatten up soon!

Kaylee did receive a flu shot the other day. Our clinics haven’t had the flu shot or the H1N1 in the last two month every time I’ve called after we received the ok from the second allergist. So, took her to MVNA (Minnesota visiting nurses agency) the other day, paid the $25 for the shot. We (I mean I) was nervous about the shot and a reaction, but there was none – yea! She just got a big frowny face as the shot was administered and then as soon as the nurse gave her a sticker – all was well. Now back in 4-6 weeks for the booster! And still searching for the H1N1 shot…
