Update on Life

Well, its been a long time since I have written, and Bailey is growing like a weed! Easter was a blast. Bailey went on two Easter Egg Hunts, and loved every minute of them! She knew just what to do..she found the eggs, put them in her basket, and then had a great time opening the eggs to find the treats! In fact..we still have her Easter Basket out so that she can play with the eggs. We are constantly hiding her toys in them so that she can open them to find out what is inside!

Bailey is also big enough to start enjoying the playground. She loves the swing, but loves the slides even more. She has even figured out how to climb/walk up the slide backwards...she has figured things out a little faster than I thought she would. She is so cute at the playground..she loves to climb all over..she is such a big girl!

We are also trying lots more foods...she doesn't like meat so much. She will eat an occasional hot dog, but that is the extent of her meat eating. She loves mac and cheese, grilled cheese,

cheese sandwiches (see a running theme?), and almost every kind of fruit. She is so funny when she eats pears..she can hardly put them into her mouth fast enough. I am so grateful that she would like to have fruits as her sweets rather than cookies or other sweets. Yea Bailey!

She has also started to do some really big girl things. We can give her a piece of trash (paper, box, wrapper to something she is eating) and tell her to throw it away, and she will take it to the trash can and


throw it away. She is great at picking up her toys, and keeping things cleaned..although she is great at making a mess as well! She loves shoes--she knows that if we put shoes on that it most likely means that we are going outside. So...she will go around the house and find all of the shoes she can,and bring them to us to put on...then she will take our finger and lead us to the door so that we can go outside...how can we resist....needless to say we are outside a lot!! She loves to play in the grass..and find the birdies and doggies....which she imitates so well....little tweet tweet, and woof woofs are such

cute sounds to hear. We got her a new pink buggy/car to ride in..she absolutely loves riding in it, and will let me push her the whole way to the end of the street, and doesn't even try to get out!

Bailey has also learned a lot of words...mommy, daddy, granpa, pop pop, nini, ball, doggie, birdie, yes, no, thank you, more, uh-oh, up are some of them. She is also really cute with her animal sounds. She know what a birdie, doggie, and bear say. She also know what bunies do..hop hop....she has such a cute way about her.

Bailey did end up getting tubes in her ears and a tear duct probe as well. We reached the limit on ear infections, and needed to do something about it to make our little pumpkin feel better. She has had one ear infections since the tubes, and the tubes did what they were supposed to..drain the fluid. Ear drops and an antibiotic did the trick..hopefully now that summer is here we will be able to move past the ear infections and we will have a great, sickness free summer!

I have included some great pictures, and a video..and I will post a few more videos in a few days...have to figure out how to upload from the camcorder :)

I'll write again soon!
