17 months

Dear Kiley,
Today is the 22nd, which means, 17 months ago you were born! Each month I say it, but it is true, I can't believe you are that old!  August will be here before we know it and you will be 2!

{this is my attempt at a 17 month photo, like we used to do!}

 Each day is more and more interesting with you then the last.  You are learning and discovering more each day, it is pretty amazing!  You have a lot of things you say and repeat for us.  Some things that you are doing these days include:

* Mickey and Minnie mouse-to say you are obsessed is an understatement.  You love and adore Mickey Mouse, I think if you could you would be content watching it all day, everyday!
{you even have a minnie mouse shirt}
*You love to read books still!

*Eating-you eat pretty much everything that we put in front of you...and you love to snack! {you love cheezits and m&m's}
*You drink milk or water only. We have tried {watered down}juice only a few times. but each time it doesn't end well {diaper rash} but honestly you are fine without it!
*You love to pretend to talk on the phone, however if we ever put it up to your ear when someone is actually on the other line, you get very shy and won't say a word, but smile from ear to ear!
*You don't like to sit still. Example: church. going out to eat.
*You have a sudden obsession with shoes, you love trying to put them on yourself!
{you picked these shoes out to put on and got them on yourself even though they are too small!}
*You love the dogs, its hard to say if you choose Sammy or Bella more, you have your reasons as to why sometimes you prefer one to the other.
{i should also add that they love you too, they love following you around--especially if you have food!}
*Baby dolls, you love them.
*Blankets, you have one you love to sleep with.
{this is your favorite blanky, and one of your dolls}
*You don't really like to fall down, you throw a fit sometimes
*Speaking of fits, you have become quite good at throwing them...flinging yourself to the floor and going limp..unable to allow me to lift you up.
{melt down}
*Clothing: size 18-24 months, shoes size 5
*You still don't have much hair, but from what you did have, you have a lot!

{here you can see most of your hair}

There are so many other things that I could sit here and write to you, but I will leave it at that! We love that you continue to grow each and everyday {although, I do miss you as a tiny newborn baby} Each day gets better with you Kiley.  You are the best thing that has ever happened to me {and daddy too!}
Love,
Mommy

 {you love balloons, and can say balloon}
 {you mastered this toy down! and you insisted on the headband with your pajamas tonight!}
