Twenty Three Weeks - Kylie

23 Weeks - 11/24/16

Kylie has been super tough this week. She has been having trouble sleeping and hasn't been eating as much as she usually does. She tried sweet potatoes this week and didn't seem to love them or hate them. She is still learning how to eat solids. She has been getting more active. She likes to roll around everywhere on the floor until she gets stuck and then we move her and she does it all over again. She loves to stand up and can do it really well with a little help. She is giggling and laughing more now.

This weekend we didn't do much. Mainly laid around due to being sick. We did get out of a bit to go to the Enchanted Islands Harvest Festival. We went Saturday night quick. Blake rode each ride once and then he went on a pony ride, bounce house, corn box, and hay ride. Blake really liked the rides and the bounce houses. We went with him through the obstacle courses and then went down the slide with him. He loved that!

Wednesday night after work we went to West Gate. We went to Dave and Busters and let Blake play some games and then went to Whiskey Rose for dinner. We love going there! There was a hockey game that night so we walked around for a bit. We were going to stay for the snow but decided it would be too late.

Thanksgiving was fun! We bought all our food pre-made at Costco so dinner was easy. Jeremy is the cook at our house and he did an awesome job getting it all ready for us! Blake liked the sweet potatoes and stuffing. He called them cookies because they were sweet. We did a lot of Black Friday shopping on Thanksgiving. I did most of my shopping online but Jeremy did go out and get some things at 6. We did go to JcPenny's at 2:40 and it opened at 3. I stood in line till 3:30 and we didn't get a coupon! :( Next year I'm not going. We had to hurry and eat dinner in order to get there and it's not worth it. Blake and I also had fun watching football!

Twenty Two Weeks - Kylie

22 Weeks - 11/17/16

Kylie tried her first solid vegetable this week. I made her some carrot baby food. She hated it. We tried on two different nights and both times she spit it up and looked disgusted. Jeremy has been working with her on getting comfortable on her stomach and working towards crawling. She wants to crawl so bad but can't yet. She has started rolling more and more. She still adores her big brother! She has the biggest smile when she sees her big brother.

This past weekend was a busy one. We took Blake and Kylie to the daycare they will be starting at in January. They had a fall festival going on so Blake was able to get his face painted, play with some kids, play on the playground and look around his future classroom. They also had a "petting zoo" which consisted of a pig. Blake did pet it though. He had a lot of fun!

We then went to The Habit for free burgers. They were having a pre grand opening and gave out burgers to the first 200 customers. Somehow I ended up dropping my phone in the parking lot. When we got home I couldn't find my phone. I looked on Jeremy's phone to track it and saw it was at the habit. It was moving around so Jeremy jumped in the car and drove there. I kept tracking it and gave him updates on where it was headed. It finally came to a stop and Jeremy was able to track which car it was. So he called the police and they showed up a little while after. They went to the house and asked if they had a my phone. They went and got the phone from their car. They made up a story about how they were going to report it to the police and so on. The police told them it was ok which was really frustrating! The stole it and that's not ok! Granted I shouldn't have dropped it but still they stole it. The end was happy though, I have my phone! :)

Shortly after I took Blake to the first birthday party he has been invited too. It was his best friends 3rd birthday! It was the cutest Cookie Monster party! Blake had so much fun!

This week has been a little rough. I've been sick all week and its been a harder week at work. Jeremy has been awesome with helping with the kids so I can work at night. I can't wait for Friday night so I can just crash!
