March Madness...Kaelyn Style

Kaelyn met the Easter bunny yesterday and I was shocked by her smile while sitting on his lap. I really thought this was going to be a bad idea because we've had a little separation anxiety lately, but she was great and even laughed at him. Way to be friendly Peter Cottontail (unlike your buddy Santa)!
                                                 

This past month has been super busy and we've had lots of fun times. Pop and KK came in to town for a weekend and we took Kaelyn to the McKinney Trades Days and she loved walking around in the beautiful weather. She is definitely going to be a people watcher. Auntie Karlene joined in on the fun and we all got to hang out at the house that evening while the guys grilled.

(KK bought her the ridiculous flower on her head to match her new outfit)

Kaelyn is not sure about this crazy flower (It's just too cute!)

Daddy has had a busy month at work, but whenever he's home, Kaelyn steals all his attention!


This is so sweet. They are having their own little conversation!
(in "Kaelyn language" of course)

Kaelyn loves to get her hair brushed after a bath.

We tried apple slices for the first time! Look at that face!

Mimi came in and spent the day with us before she had to pick up PawPaw from the airport. We took Memaw out to La Hacienda for her birthday lunch with Aunt Lisette and Uncle Bentley and spent the day playing at home.

Kaelyn sharing her paci with Daddy!
(Very sweet, but very yucky!)

I'm quickly learning that we can save money on toys and just find random household items for Kaelyn to chew on and play with. Here's our latest example...the laundry basket. Kaelyn scooted her way into and thought it was funny! 


I thought I'd show her...We now have a new way to keep her contained!

We went to Longview last weekend to watch Uncle Kylen perform in the community "Dancing with the Stars." We got to see all the family while we were in town.

PawPaw brought Kaelyn back a surprise from China!

Sorry PawPaw...the tissue was way more exciting than my kimono outfit!

(Kaelyn was really sleepy by this point and it didn't help that Kylen was last)

Had to share this pic...Here is what Kylen would look like with long locks!
(Kylen and his partner, a journalist from the local paper, brought home 3 trophies)

March was definitely fun filled with lots of adventures and daily changes in Kaelyn. I feel certain that the month of April will hold many more adventures because we will have a crawler (we are oh so close). Don't get me wrong...Kaelyn can move across a room in no time at the present, but not in crawling fashion yet.
