Since I blogged last time (a month ago!), we have been keeping busy. We went to our church camp and had a good week there. Kylee had been in a swimming pool once before, but I took her at camp every day. She didn't quite know what to think of all the water. She didn't cry, but wasn't took excited about it either. Part of it was that we went right before her afternoon nap every day, so she was tired already. She was doing a lot better in it by the end of the week. I'm sure she will get to where she loves it. She really liked playing in the dirt after a little bit. She liked to get cleaned off afterwards though.

After we got home from camp and were doing the laundry. Kylee was trying to help by taking the wet clothes out the dryer and I was putting them in :-), and she slipped between the wall and the dryer door and made her lip bleed, etc. I don't do good with blood anway and with it being on my little girl made me think the worst. I was sure the she had broke her nose or something!!! Joshua had to fix her up! She was actually pretty cute with her first owie after it was all done and over with. After it was almost healed up, she fell again and got some scratches on her nose and lip again. This will be never ending, especially if she takes after her Daddy.
Kylee's first 4th of July. Her shirt says "American Cutie". I thought it was appropriate. :-) We spent the day with Joshua's family that live here in Crowley. They barbequed, etc. We had a good day. Kylee was asleep when we went to see the fireworks which was a bummer, but there were some people down our street that were setting off some in their yard, so she stood on our couch and watched out the window until they were done. She really liked those.
Here is Kylee doing her talking thing while pointing both of her fingers at the same time. It's quite humerous.
Yesterday evening, we drove to Bay St. Louis, Mississippi to see out niece Tana who was down here for a missions trip helping out with stuff from hurricane Katrina. On the way, Kylee was playing with an old cell phone and was trying to talk on it. It was backwards and no one was on it, but she thought she was doing a good job talking on it. Too bad she doesn't do so well when people are actually on it. She would rather listen than talk when someone is on the other line.
Here is Kylee and her cousin Tana.
There wern't very many places to eat that were open. The town is still not in very good condition. Anyway, we took Tana to Sonic. Kylee enjoyed eating outside. Here are all of us.
Here is Kylee being the little diva that she is! I think she knows that she is cute.
We are keeping a piano for some friends until they get their house built, so Kylee was having fun on it this morning.
Yesterday she learned to say Moo. She doesn't always perform on command, but I got her to do it for the video camera finally. Also, you ask her what the ceiling fan does and she waves her arm in circles. Just now, she learned to say Papa (what she calls Joshua's dad).
Joshua's parents are going to be here next week, so that will be fun. We leave for NYR next Thursday night. This will be Kylee first really long trip since she was 1 month old. She is used to going on 4 hour trips, but not much longer. Hopefully she will do good. We are going to switch her carseat so she is facing front so that should help. We will get to see my parents while we are there so that will be fun.
Kylee's first birthday is coming up on August 5th, so I will try to post pictures etc after that if I don't blog again before that.
There is this kitty that started coming around our house the past couple of weeks. The kitty and Kylee like to play when Kylee is outside.
We went to a pumpkin patch with my MOPS group. They had pictures, movie, snacks & story time, hay maze (the picture above), animals, and a hay ride. We had a good time.
Kelsey & Kylee playing with some of the small pumpkins. I couldn't get both of them to look at the camera at the same time!
Here is Kylee with some of the big pumpkins. She was too interested in the pumpkins to look up for a picture.
Yesterday we went to the Rice Festival that they have here in Crowley every year. Here is Kylee with one of her favorite people, Mallory. They were sliding on one of the fun jumps.
