Baby to Toddler
Kyle is 13 months old now.....another month flew by!
He is slowly becoming more of a toddler than baby, so amazing to watch! A little bittersweet still though slowly getting away from all the baby stuff...bottles, bouncy seats, toys ect! It all happens so quick...one day he's all baby and the next its like he just magically turned to a little big boy in ways! He's still a lil guy at 27.5in and 19lbs(by our scale..woohoo) He's little but with a big personality!
He throws fits now, hits his head on things or throws himself back....not hard though thankfully! Its quite amusing for us to watch, his face is priceless.....he really thinks he's making a point! hehehe
He now only gets 2 bottles a day...in the morning and bedtime(I haven't a clue when we'll drop this one though!) Rest of the day he gets his sippy! He's been off formula since maybe the second week of Dec so shortly after his 1st birthday! Again we slowly added whole milk and less and less formula...he did great and loves milky just like sissy did! And again just like sis he isn't fond of juice so its water or milk to drink! Edited - 1/17 daddy switched his morning bottle to a sippy...he was a bit mad at first but took it and we haven't went back! The next couple mornings he was still a little mad about a sippy but there is no going back now! So we are down to just a bed time bottle!
He eats about anything now! We still get some baby food mostly just for a take and go meal if needed! We'll chop up meats and veggies for him and he eats it up! He loves variety and doesn't want to eat just one thing in a meal. He loves oatmeal with fruit in it for breakfast and again we have to mix up what we flavor the oatmeal with or he gets bored and won't eat! hahaha He eats all three meals and probably 3-4 snacks like a champ....he likes to eat!
Sleep thankfully has gotten better! Since October we've been struggling....between learning to crawl, teething and being sick it just threw his body off! But since the 1st of Dec our lil man has slept better and better! Past couple weeks he has his bottle around 8:30, one of us rock him for a few and then tuck him in...He'll wake up between 5:30a-6:30a the next morning! Yes its early but hey it ALL night sleep, we are early birds anyway! Maybe our next step will be sleeping a bit later!
Learning is still the same really! He's not walking yet but that's totally ok with us! He is letting go of things and getting his balance and learning to climb on things. He jabbers all the time, laughs, smile and is just all around happy! He is only cranky when sleepy or hungry! We are still trying to get him to say sissy or sis sis anything for sissy, she can't wait for him to say it! He know what a dog is, he'll go to one of the dogs and say dog dog..so cute!
Edited - Over this past week 14-19th Kyle has taken more and more steps! When he's not super excited he can take several steps and sometimes he'll even just go on his own! Pretty sure within in the week or so we'll have a walker!

Merry Christmas
Merry Christmas to my sweet babies.....what an awesome day we've had!
We started our morning off around 6:30ish...Kaylee was so excited! First she read her goodbye letter from Elfee and saw Santa loved his cookies.
Then the lights came on and unwrapping started! Kyle thought the paper of course was neat! He did love his laugh and learn chair! `Kaylee loved all her presents I believe, a pop up tent, tablet,bakepop kit, a big house to color and play in again, cute clothes, spin tooth brush, zu zu horse....and on!

Elfee....Holiday fun
This year we bought an Elf on the Shelf....Heres the story!
The tradition begins when Santa sends his scout elves out to Elf Adoption Centers. Waiting for their families to bring them home, these patient elves hibernate until their family reads The Elf on the Shelf, gives their elf a very special name ours is Elfee, and registers their adoption online. Once named, each scout elf will receive its Christmas magic and become a part of the family’s Christmas each and every year.
Although the elf's cannot be touched, or else they may lose his magic, the elf will always listen and relay messages back to Santa. Taking in all the day-to-day activities around the house, no good deed goes unnoticed; these scout elves take their job seriously.
Each night, after the family goes to bed, the scout elf uses his magical Christmas powers to fly back to the North Pole, where he makes his daily report to Santa, plays with his friends and has a little snack!
Before our family wakes he flys back and finds a fun place to keep an eye out....they love to play games so we have to keep a look out for silly places Elfee might hide.
On Christmas Eve, the scout elf will listen for Santa’s bell and then fly back to the North Pole until the next season....around Thanksgiving.
Kaylee loved finding Elfee the first morning!
Here's just a couple other silly places Elfee was found!
We had fun and can't wait for Elfee to return next Christmas!!

Kyle's not feeling so great sadly but he's still getting ready for Santa with a big smile!
Kaylee was so excited and just couldn't wait to go to bed...we had fun making Santa's cookies and setting up!
