On Wednesday, Aunt Alex signed with Texas A&M University to play softball! We are so proud of her and really excited because we are adding another Aggie to the family!
Last time Alex visited A&M she picked up one of the cutest shirts I have ever seen for Kiley. She then bedazzled it with Kiley's name! She did a great job! Kiley was the center of attention along with Alex and she was loving every minute. When there is a lot of people around that's when she puts on a show. Being shy is not one of her traits.
After daycare Tuesday, I decided that it would be fun to take Kiley to the playground by the Elementary School. She loves to go there and it is a great place to kill time and let her get out all her energy! The moment she saw the playground she started pointing and saying "Nom, Nom, Nom!" I don't know what that means, but everytime she sees the playground that is what she says. Once we parked she started yelling, "Yea!" and clapping her hands. She couldn't wait to get out of her car seat and the minute I put her down she took off running! The tiniest things make her so excited - you can still see the excitement in her face in this picture!
So, Kiley has hit another milestone, she is 18 months old and counting. I know I say this all the time, but time really does go by fast. In a blink of an eye, our little girl has grown up into a toddler. Her and her daddy are the loves of my life and everyday spent with them warms my heart! Along with that, during the time we left for our trip until the present Kiley has learned so many new words and sayings.
- If you ask Kiley, "What does Zoe say?" she now responds by barking! It is the sweetest little bark that I have ever heard. Definitely not a Zoe bark, which is really loud and high pitched. I asked her today "What does a cow say?" and she responded by mooing! I was so shocked and of course so proud!
- She now wants everything the grown ups are having, including tea. She gets tea at supper time with the grown ups and she loves it! So, of course, she quickly learned to say, "tea!"
- The same day that Aunt Alex had her signing, I told Kiley that she was going to see her Nana & Papa. She sweetly said, "Papa." I said "That's right!" and Nanna asked her, "Can you say Nana?" All she did was shake her head and said "No." Now the name Papa has been a popular thing for her to say.
- It use to be if you asked Kiley how old she was she would hold up her pointer finger in response. Now if you ask how old anyone is, it's the same response. Everyone is one years old! With Kiley everyone gets extremely younger!
- Kiley got a new book called, Dora's Book of Manners. Nanna & I asked her the other day if she could say Dora? She sweetly repeated "Dora!" This name has now turned into a sentence, "Go Dora Go!" I think that is pretty awesome for an 18 month old!
All those things just happened in the last 2 weeks, which guarantees that there is much more surprises to come and we can't wait to hear what she will say next!
Until next week, Gig'em & God Bless!!
