16.5 Months Old

This post will be a little light since mom and dad were getting ready for their Canada trip, so there are just a few pictures to enjoy. Kami's hair continues to get longer, her personality continues to get bigger, and she is starting to run around instead of just walk fast. My baby is turning into a little girl before our eyes and I'm freaking out a little bit!

Hanging out in a bouncy house. I don't think Kami really enjoyed it that much.

Here is Kami's new hang-out spot.

She loves chillin' in her toy box.

It's pretty easy to get in and out of. What a clever girl.

Dad and Kami keeping the beat at a library music class.

Kami not paying attention to mom.

Kami rockin' some nice sunglasses. What a cool girl.

What a cute girl, right?

They're so funny!

16 Months

I know, I know-I'm a little late in posting her 16-month update. I blame it on something else because it is obviously not my fault that I've fallen behind! Kami has been showing off her personality more and more every day. She is continuing to point out body parts (eye, nose, mouth, ear, fingers, and toes) and still loves to eat! I'm not sure if that will ever change. Since you have waited so long for her pictures, here you go!

Kami has discovered toilet paper...

and the fact that it comes off the roll quite easily.

Man this stuff is awesome!

We might have to look into some sort of gadget that doesn't let her run out of the bathroom with the toilet paper still on the roll. Hmph.

Kami loves her black bear so much!

We have ponytail success!

A profile view.

We picked up some rockin' sunglasses to protect Kami's lookin' balls.

This girl loves balloons!

We didn't want our girl to lose her balloon, so we tied it onto her pacifier. The balloon also served as a nice tracker for Kami in case we lost her in a crowd.

Look, I have a potato!

Delicious!

Kami has started to hold on to her cup with just her teeth. I hope she doesn't lose any teeth!

Peek-a-boo!

Kami has discovered cream cheese.

Kami likey!

She started trying to lick the cream cheese off the bagel. What a mess.

Kami is starting to eat a little bit better with utensils, which is not obvious in this picture.

So much sugar...

She gets a 5 o'clock shadow after she eats her dessert.

She likes to taunt her dad...

and that's what she gets!

How can anyone resist this?

15 1/2 Months

It's been a typical Idaho spring and out weather has been really weird, so we haven't gotten to hang out in the great outdoors as much as we would have liked to, but we've gone on a few bike rides with Kami in a bicycle stroller (not sure how much she liked that) and walked to the park (where she might have eaten a lot of bark) and I've got a lot of pictures of cute outfits she's worn. She still drools a lot, so we assume she's teething still (I think she's got about 12 teeth including her four front teeth on the top and bottom and two molars each on the top and bottom). Kami likes to shake her head "yes" and "no" when we tell her we love her and gives lots of kisses. She's also learned to blow kisses, but only when she wants to. She doesn't like to show off too much.

Kami didn't like going down the slide, but she had a lot of fun trying to climb up it.

Kami is very concerned with the environment and we took this bottle home to recycle it.

And this milk jug. She's very eco-friendly.

Ooh-what's in here?

Bark is so delicious!
Maybe I'll have some more!

And some more.

And I'll finish it off with a bark dessert.

Would you like some?

Too much bark! Bark was a bad choice.

I don't think she was too impressed with the swings.

How can you resist a face like that?

Look-I found a rock! Can I keep it?

Dad and Kami talking a stroll.

Kami hanging out in her new bike stroller.

After a bike ride, we needed some lunch. Kami was pretty happy about that.

Kami decided to shove as much food as possible in her mouth.

And she's outta here!

Kami's other outfit from Denver. Isn't she sweet?

So tired...

We went to the Original Pancake House for dad's birthday and Kami got her first taste of hot chocolate. She was on a sugar high for about an hour after this.

I was proud of my designing skills when I turned one of Kami's too-short dresses (I think it was a 12 month dress) into a tunic.
