Best Daddy ever!

I LOVE my dada!

I love when he reads to me :)

And I am SO excited to go hiking soon together :)

"Fitting in"

Recently, Kelsey has enjoyed fitting her whole self in numerous spaces, including the shelf on our coffee table (yet to be photographed). Here are just a few examples :)

Just coming out of my bookshelf

I found a box!

Don't leave without me :)

What we've been up to

Playing at the Park

I LOVE the slide!

And the swing!

Weeeeeeeee

Mom has gotten sneaky by adding milk to my cereal. Sometimes I even drink the milk after the cereal is gone. Corn Pops are my favorite.

Eating corn on the cob- like a BIG girl.

My new favorite strange food item- pickeles!

Sporting the hoody

And my friend, Evan, who used to be in my playgroup before moving

Wolf Sanctuary

On Saturday, May 29th, we went to a Wolf Sanctuary near our house for a very hot, humid walking tour. Kelsey was a trooper with the heat and liked looking at the wolves. Many of these wolves are nearing extinction so it was a rarety to be able to see them.

LOVING yogurt

We have been battling wills (Kelsey vs. Daddy and I) in trying to get Kelsey to drink whole milk. We've tried different cups, bottles, temperatures and flavors (strawberry, chocolate and banana) and man, our girl is stubborn! ( I can't imagine where she gets that- poor, Adam!) We do feel better though knowing that Kelsey now LOVES cheese and whole milk yogurt. In order to get her to eat it, we have to give her her own graham stick to dip into the yogurt so that she'll be distracted enough to eat it when we spoon it in her mouth. I never imagined the lengths I would go to to get her to eat. If only she would eat the more fattening foods the way she eats fruits and veggies! Currently, she'll also drink about 8 oz of whole milk blended with vanilla ice cream and banana- a melted banana milkshake. (shocking, right?!) Though if we call it a milkshake, she shakes it everywhere, so we've settled on the term "smoothie." She really is full of personality and independence! We are definitely up to the challenge to help her put on weight! You've met your match little girl! :)

My New Wagon and our Adventures
