kylie and kaden: Kylie.18 months ~~ My pregnancy.18 weeks

Kylie and her baby doll...thank you, Aunt Vida!

Happy 18 months to Kylie yesterday! She is officially 1.5 years old. I can't believe she's becoming a little girl now, but she will always be my baby. Plus, she's so small in size that it's hard to believe she's 18 months old! Kylie has been doing well these days. She's definitely a late talker because she still hasn't attempt to say any words yet...just the basics like, mama baba, dada. I hope one day she will just blurt out a bunch of words. She has her 18-month check up tomorrow, so we'll see what the doctor says. She still doesn't like to drink her milk and she's a creature of habit. We bought her a new sippy cup that is the EXACT same style as her old one, but just a different color. She just won't drink from it! Can you believe it? Then, once I give her the old one, she starts gulping her water down. Boy oh boy...

My pregnancy is going pretty well at this point. I'm beginning to feel the baby move...little flutters in my tummy. At my last check up, the doctor told me that I lost half a pound. It seems hard to believe since I'm totally showing now...but I do notice that this time around, I don't have much of an appetite. Hope that increases through the weeks. So, next week we have an appointment for an ultrasound to find out the sex of the baby! I'm excited to find out just cause we can start planning and it gives me a better idea of what to shop for. Plus, we haven't done anything for the new baby and one of the biggest thing we have to do is to clear out the office and make it baby#2's room. Ohhh, not looking forward to putting my scrapbook table away...although I haven't scrapbook in a while, it just makes me a little sad to know that we have to put it away and it just brings me another step away from scrapbooking. Those of you who are scrappers should understand. :)

Other than that next week, we go on our vacation to Georgia to visit the grandparents! It would be nice to hang out with them for a few days and Kat is going to meet us there, so that's an extra PLUS! The only thing I'm not looking forward to is the flight there and back. We leave at 6 in the morning, meaning we have to get up around 3 AM....There's also a 3-hour difference in Georgia, so I'm just imagining how Kylie is going to deal with her sleeping...and at night. I'm glad that we bought her a seat on the plane as well, so that way, maybe she will fall asleep in her carseat on the plane. We have a lot to prepare for since this is our first trip that requires flying. Wish us luck!

So, I'll end this post with a few pictures we took the last week or two. Enjoy!

Here's Kylie enjoying herself on her new couch and watching Seasame Street.

Margaret & Carhin came down 2 weeks ago and we went to a Piggies & Paws party. We got footprints done for both Carhin and Kylie. Afterwards, they came over and had lunch at our place...it was really good seeing them!

We went to visit Eunice & Andrew AND thier new bundle of joy, Audrey who is only a few weeks old here. Here's a group picture of the girls with our babies...and two more to come in Cindy and I's tummy. This picture was taken two weeks ago, so as of 2 days ago, Cindy delivered a healthly little girl, Sadie! Congratulations, Cindy & Wilfred!

One of Kylie's favorite things to do is to flip through her board books. She has no patience to listen to me read a book to her cause before I can finish one sentence, she's already flipped to the next page. :)
