Keagan is 28 months!!

Keagan Jade is already 28 months old! And right now her favorite things to do, are go outside and play with the flowers and watch for "bear-planes"(airplanes)! She just lights and gets so excited when she spots one. She will point, start yelling, and jump up and down, she repeats it over and over until she cannot see it anymore. Then she will ask where it went, its just to darn cute. Her other fav right now is mommys flowers. She loves to pick the pedals off the flower and smell them and kiss them, and then let them float away in the wind. Fun for her, not so fun for mommys flower bed. Its going to be looking pretty drab if she keeps this up.
She is still doing really well with pottying. We are wearing panties through out the day, and a pull up at night. She has been waking up dry, but I'm still too nervous to put her in panties at night. She is talking up a storm and everyday seems like she is picking up on new words. She has really started mimic us in everything we do. The other day we were at home and she could her the dogs barking at something outside, Keagan walked over to the back door and kicked it, and yelled for the dogs to stop!! Its exactly what her daddy does when they are barking at the neighbors!!! I cried I was laughing so hard!
She is such a little helper too! She is always trying to give bubba his sippy cup or bottle, or feed him a cheeto or a grape. She will get his paci and diaper for me. She loves to help me in the flower beds, and unloading the dishwasher. She even wants to help people wipe and flush the toilet when they go to the bathroom, so don't let her in with you. =)
She is going back and forth with her eating. Somedays she eats anything and everything she can get her hands on, and others she will barely eat anything. I guess as long as they even out, its all good. She is wearing 18-24 months clothing, and can fit into some 2T stuff. She is wearing a size 4 and some size 5 shoes will fit. She has finally started to fall in love with shoes!!! Thank god!!! She is also a very girlie girl, and loves to wear dresses and skirts. Her favorite shows are Mickey Mouse, Tinkerbell, Special agent OSO, Cars, and Toy Story. Anyway, she is such a little sweetie and joy to be around, I am so happy to have her in our lives!!
Happy 28 months stinker!!!

We love you baby girl!!!

2-years, 2- months...

Oh how the time goes by so quickly............

It seems like just yesterday Keagan was turning 2, and now, here it is, 2 more months later. =( Boo. She has in the last month or so REALLy began to increase her vocabulary! She is liking counting, and her favorite number is 2 ofcourse!! She likes to play hide and seek with her toys! Her favorite character is still Mickey and Minnie Mouse. She is still wearing panties throughout the day. She absolutely loves to wear dresses and skirts, and HATES to wear pants of any sort. I think because they are harder to get off when she needs to go to the restroom. We are still working on keeping shoes on her. She will now wear them but once we are inside or in the car, she immediately takes them off. She is pushing right at 24 pounds, and is 34 inches tall. Almost 3 feet....Wooooo!!!! She is very active and always on the run!! Lately, she is not wanting to take naps. If she skips her nap, she usually falls asleep by 8 or 8:30 and isn't up till about 9 or 9:30 in the morning. We are working on her big girl bed, and as long as all 7 mickey's and minnie's are there, she is usually content, although mommy does have to lay there right now until she falls asleep. Whenever I ask her if she is ready for night night, she tells me "no" and runs and jumps into our bed, gets under the cover, and props up on the pillows!! So cute!!! Also, we got a new fish aquarium and she could sit all day and point to the "fishies". She absolutely loves them!! Here mema has her spoiled and she loves to have choclate milk and choclate doughnuts on the weekend. So, I thought I would take a few pics of her enjoying her "choclate delights" while watching her fave, Mickey Mouse!!

25 months old....

This was our first month, post 2 that is. And it was so much fun! Well, besides being sick that is. Which I think we are FINALLY over with after about 2 rounds of it. Thank goodness! I still can't believe Keagan is already 2. We are still going strong with pottying. She wears panties throughout the day and a nightime pull up at night, just in case. She is doing very well, and has in the last week decided that she wants to help...she has been trying to empty the potty for me. She went the other day and I was cooking lunch and had no idea. She came into the kitchen telling me "Alright! Alright!". So I ventured in the living room to see what she did and there was a trail of tee tee from her potty all the way to the toilet. It was a good try though. =) I have helped her a couple of times and showed her how to carry it, and she can now carry all the way without spilling. She has also become rather clean and aware of when she needs to be wiped. She doesn't like to have anything on her face or hands, she will bring me the wipe case to get a wipe and clean it off. Also, after she pottys, she will bring it to me to clean her. Good girl! Lately, we have noticed that she is really shy around people. She will talk alot around us and and bedtime, but we hardly utter a peep when someone is around. Not sure what is up with that. Anywho, this is such a fun age, I just wish they could stay here all the time!

Keagan update....

What a little stinker!! She is doing so well. We are fully in panties now during the day and have been for a couple of weeks. She really has amazed me. She has only had 1 accident in the last 4 days. And well that was mommys fault. I was feeding Deakon and she couldn't get her panties off in time and I couldn't get him down fast enough to help her. Sorry stinker. I am so very proud of her though. I cannot, repeat CANNOT, believe she is about to 2 years old. I remember being in the hospital with her like it was just yesterday. She is definitely sponging up alot of stuff right now. She has seen us play Mario Kart on the Wii and loves to pretend drive with the wheels. She will bring me one, daddy one, and sister one, and we all have to pretend drive with her...too cute!! She is picking up on alot of new words and putting them together well. Some of it still sounds jibberish, but I can make it out. She is such a little angel and still very much in love with her 'Bubba' and her 'Sissy'. She just kisses him 60 times a day and says "so sweet" while doing it! I had to use the restroom the other day, and when I walked back in she had got his bottle and was feeding to him! Shes so smart! Mommy loves you angel baby!!

Lots going on....

We have had so much going on STILL...I am fighting to find the time for anything at this point. My little guy is having such a rough time. =( We started a new lactose free formula to see if it would help him. We used it for a week and to no avail, it did not. The second week was a lactose free and milk free formula, which did not help either. So, now we have moved on to a new formula, a very pricey formula, that is a hypoallergenic formula for babies with allergies and protein sensitivity. Its suppose to help with Colic also. Which I am convinced he has. There is a period in the morning, afternoon, and night where he is just unconsolable and arches his back constantly like he is in pain. Poor baby, nothing seems to help. I'm am keeping my fingers crossed that this one will do the trick. Why can't I just breastfeed my baby??? Isn't is suppose to be that easy?? He is also having problems going to the bathroom on a regular basis, so he gets prune juice twice a day. And he is still taking the Zantac and Prevacid for his reflux. I just CANNOT wait for him to outgrow this stage. I feel so horrible for him. Because of everything, he has been getting up every two hours at night, which makes for a long night for momma. Anyways, I do have so pictures to put up. But wanted to update on Deakon.

On the other hand, Keagan is doing amazing. She hasn't worn diapers during the day for about a week now. We are only wearing them when we go out for extended periods in public and at night time. She has got this potty training down for tee tee'ing. She is doing the other, but it SCARES the crap out of her everytime!! Its kind of funny! She has managed to only have a few accidents, which is expected. But I am so proud of how well she has done! I can't believe in only a month she is going to be 2! It just is sooooo hard to believe!

Farren is doing great as well! She got her report card and got all A's and B's! She had a great 6 weeks. Also, she made the basketball team!! Go Farren! And she should be finding out next week sometime which team she is on. She is super excited though, this is what she has been looking forward to all year! I am so excited about going to watch her play basketball in the same gym that I did at that age....how cool is that???

Hope everyone enjoys there Thanksgiving this year! I know we will!
