Classy Babe!

18 Months Old!

Pyper turned 18 months old last Saturday and had her check-up with the doctor today. She did really well and didn't cry whenever he touched her, just kind of glared. He even got her to giggle once. She is right in the middle of the chart with height and weight at 31 1/2 inches and 23.8 pounds. Her head, however, is in the 85th percentile at 48 cm! Then, came the shots and she didn't like those one bit! She had to have two and she did okay with the first one, although, she was working herself up to be pretty upset and then came the second shot! She started crying until I picked her up and the nurse gave her a sticker. She was still sobbing a little, but not crying. Then, the nurse took Kensley out of the room to pick out some stickers as I started getting Pyper dressed. Once the door opened and I started putting on her shoes she got pretty happy and started saying, "bye!" over and over. She was very happy to have the appointment over with!
They gave her a book at her appointment and she loves it! She immediately picked it up and made herself comfortable to read it. It has two of her favorite things in the book, babies and balls!

The Weirdest Thing

Stephen and Kensley were outside when she ran into the house to tell me she pet a bird! I was confused and Stephen walked in and said that Kensley pet a bird! Then they went back outside. The next thing I know, Stephen walks in holding a bird in his hands and it is just sitting there calm as can be. I guess it was on our porch when Kensley walked up to it and started petting it and it didn't fly away.



We were thinking it was injured or something because it didn't even try to fly away. It wasn't acting scared or nervous, either. Thinking it was hurt, Stephen climbed our wall and put the bird up on the roof so that it would be safer. The bird hopped off his hands onto the roof and then flew away! Never to be seen from again. So weird.

Stinkin' Kids!

Pyper woke up from her nap this afternoon and when I picked her up out of the crib I noticed she had a dirty diaper and it was leaking. Yuck! So, I went downstairs and stripped off her clothes and changed her diaper. I ran upstairs to get her a new outfit and in that few seconds I heard something drop on the floor. This is what I found... We have a child lock on my cupboard with all the baking supplies. Pyper gets so mad when she can't open it and is always trying. Unfortunately, it still opens a crack and she realized she can reach in and grab certain things. She emptied an entire bag of Andes baking chips on the floor and started eating as fast as she could and Kensley decided to join the party.


This is what happened when I swept it all up and threw it in the trash!

Vultures!

Sisters!

Pyper is wearing a dress that me and my sister wore when we were toddlers!

Yikes!

When I was younger, me and my sisters used to sleep in curlers so we would have curly hair the next day. I remember looking pretty fine and have been wanting to try it with Kensley. I finally remembered to buy some curlers while I was actually at the store and Kensley was ecstatic to try them! Things didn't go quite as I had envisioned, however... I think that next time I shouldn't use the small curlers and only use the big ones!


I tried to tame it down a little with a half ponytail...did it work? You be the judge!
We decided to throw a huge bow in her hair just for giggles. :o)
