I've been a bad blogger

It's been a while.  Like, a LONG while.  So, let me catch you guys up on the happenings in Kyra Land.

Kyra is an 18 month old, walking, talking, running, throwing, screaming, dancing, bundle of energy at 31 inches tall and 22 pounds.

Her Favorite Words:
Momma and Dadddd...she says those a lot.  No, Hiiiiiii, Thaaaaank Youuuu, Num Nums, Banana, Grendel (our dog's name), More, Down, Aww, Gum (which means cup...I don't get it either), Neighhh, Weeeee (when on a swing), Go!, One Two Tree, Red Set (ready isn't a word yet), and a bunch of other gibberish sound effects.

Mom and Dad's New Catch Phrases:
Stop, Get your finger out of your nose, Use your words, Calm down, Please let me change your diaper, Don't you want to brush your teeth?, and a bunch of rambling on and on about us not understanding how she grew up and turned into a monster toddler so quick.

Kyra's Likes:
Dancing, trucks, spinning, swinging, dogs, cats, horses, birds, trees, lights, music, mocking Mommy while she works out, and swimming.

She has turned into such a little character.  She's funny, flirty, and a little bit crazy.

Like us.

Swimming adventures

 

My parents have a pool.

Everyone tells me that I should take her swimming, she'll love it.  But I don't know because she HATES her bath, HATES the shower and HATES the ocean.  But I liked swimming as a kid and I'm married to a man who very well may be a fish.

So we give it a shot.
Turns out she LOVES it.  I bought her a pink boat to sit in.  It makes it easier for me but lately she's falling asleep in it.  The other day when hubs was home, he took her out of the boat and put her in the water up to her chin.  No fuss, no problems.  So now she's letting me do the same. 

She kicks around and smiles but no splashing or pool toys yet.

Oh, and she still hates bathing.  Yeah, go figure.

P.S.  SHE ROLLED OVER ON MONDAY.  OMG.
