stats for the little tike

Katelynn is 15 lbs (27%) and 27 in (87%). She got her first two teeth and boy are they sharp. She can sit all by herself and loves to laugh and play with Damon and Andee.

Yummy

Yummy...the word I think of when I see Katelynn sleeping. Her rosie red cheeks, sweet little face, so peaceful and well...yummy.

Big girl bed

Katelynn has been sleeping in our pack and play crib, but during the middle of the night and early morning hours she liked to scrape the mesh sides and it drives me crazy and would totally wake her up. So I decided it was time to switch her to the big crib and put Andee in a bed. I took Andee shopping for a new comforter and such so she was super excited. After we got her bed set up, she laid there for about 30 minutes and we had to bribe her to get out. This morning I realized I hadn't seen Andee for quite a while, come to find out she's laying in her new bed. She loves it, I'm so glad. I was a little worried because she loved the crib so much! Easy transition, didn't fall out of bed last night and didn't even get out of bed until 8:30 this morning.

SPOILED!

Katelynn is officially 6 months old and spoiled by me! I just know that she is going to grow out of the baby stage too quickly and I'm hanging on. I love holding her, she loves to snuggle her cheek against mine. She is never going to learn to crawl because I love to hold her too much. Darn. Guess that's one way to keep them from growing up too fast, right? She is a sweet, happy, easy-going baby. She cooperates well when we go out and do things. She tolerates her older brother and sister smothering her. She sleeps through the night, and she loves to EAT! She snarfs down her solids so fast (must take after her mom). Her two bottom teeth are about to pop through, just waiting for the first day I get that bite, OUCH! I'm not sure about her measurements, but her 6 month check-up is Friday. Then I'll let you know how big the little stinker is. She is such a joy to our family. Don't grow up Katelynn, stay this young forever!

For the Record

CAUTION: THIS POST CONTAINS INFO ABOUT THE HUMAN BODY

Just for the record, I changed 8, that's right, EIGHT poopy diapers yesterday! 4 from Andee and 4 from Katelynn. Were they in for some kind of competition? What the heck are they eating to fill that many diapers? Everytime I turned around, someone had a poopy diaper...not to metion having to wipe Damon as well. I think I should be off duty for a week or so, what do you think?
