Kayler's One Year Check-up

Kayler's check-up went great! She is 20.3 lbs. (45th percentile), length is 10th percentile and head circumference is 75th percentile. She has 6 teeth, two bottom, and four top. She is crawling like crazy and just a happy little girl.

Her birthday party was so much fun! On May 21st she had a cowgirl theme party with a horseshoe pinata, goody bags for all the kids and her very own cowgirl birthday cake. We got lots of pictures and video footage. Can't believe our little girl is already one. Where did the time go?

New Addition!!

Kayler's 9 month Update

Kayler had a great check up. She is 18 lbs, 27 inches long, and head circumference of 44 cm. Everything is in the 50th percentile. She is a happy healthy little girl. All in all a great visit!

She also has her two bottom teeth, top left tooth and soon her top right will be through as well. She is eager to crawl, but hasn't exactly grasp the concept of it yet. We are so proud of her!

Kayler's First Christmas

Hey everyone! Can you believe it. It's Christmas already. Kayler is 7 months old. Hard to imagine. Kayler had some christmas pictures taken of which I have posted a few of them. I don't have any new stats on her, since she hasn't been to the doctor since her 6 month visit, but I can say that she has one tooth popped through and another working it's way. She now rolls over, has no eagerness to crawl yet. Can stand when holding onto something for a short period of time and talks up a storm (in her own language :-))

She did excellent sitting on Santa's lap. She didn't cry or get scared. She was interested in his beard though, of which she held onto while sitting on his lap. We are so proud of her.

Kayler's First Thanksgiving

Kayler's 6 month Doctor Visit

Kayler's 6 month check-up when great! She weighs 16 lbs 1 oz (50%) and 25 inches in length (25%). She also got her 6 month shots and her flu shot. She was just a big girl, only cried for a few seconds and then was all smiles.

Dr. Orr said that she is finally getting better with he chest cold after 6 1/2 weeks. They are taking her off the Prednizone today and she will still need breathing treatments of pulmicort through the winter. The last two nights she slept through the night and we are so happy for that. We think she must be feeling much better.

The doctor said to start her on stage 2 babyfood after she is finished with the stage 1 we have. We are also to start her on the dissolving cereal treats that Gerber makes so she get's familiar with feeding herself. Another new step is to introduce the sippy cup. The doctor said she may just play with it, but she has 6 months of practice until she needs to know all the in's and out's of the sippy cup. :-) We are so proud of our little girl and can't believe she is growing up so fast.

Kayler's 5 mo. Doctor Visit

Kayler overall had a pretty good check-up. The upside is that she is 14 lbs 15 oz (55th percentile), 24 1/2 inches in height (30th percentile), and 41.4 cm head circumference (45th percentile).

The downside is that she has a chest cold and it's been three weeks so they sent her to the hospital to get chest x rays. Getting the x rays was one of the worst things I have ever had to go through with her. She was restricted in like a plastic tube type deal and she screamed the entire time. The second it was over I snatched her up and cuddled her like no tomorrow. She stopped crying pretty quickly and hopefully forgot what she had to go through. The chest xrays showed that she had mucus build up in her chest so her doctor put her on breathing treatments. We are hopeful she will get through this and get better very soon.
