given her stuffed care bare kitty some lovins while waiting on lunch

Kerstyn cuttin a rug...

while we were at aunt Katie's house Kerstyn started dancing for a really long time to the main menu music on Car's. She had to of danced for 10 or more minutes total, and it cracked us up.

When I say in here "she is so cute - I wonder if she'll stay that way" I'm referring to if she will stay that way when I change positions to get a frontal view. I know she will always stay cute :)!!!! Get ready to laugh...

gettin a snack & 1st time to sit in new art desk

Kerstyn got this art desk from Karleigh, and she absolutely loves it!! She sits in it all the time. Her most favorite thing to do is color, and so this comes in very handy. She also loves her Elmo chair that we got her for Christmas. It giggles everytime she sits in it, or it moves. Now she likes to just pick it up, and flip it over sometimes just to hear it giggle.

She has grown so much!! She now has all 4 front top teeth, and 3 on the bottom + four mollars - 1 on each side of her mouth. Last night I stuck my finger in her mouth to see if there were any new teeth coming in, and she bit my figner HARD!!! It bleed, and there are now 2 slices where her mollar cut my finger. So, I dunno if there are anymore - and I'll only know if she opens her mouth for me. She says all kinds of thing, but nothing on demand...of course. She can say kitty, bubble, hello, yellow, tree, ball, shoe, Ashlee (we know what she's saying, but someone else may not :) ), and she can sign for more, all done/gone and please (although this one is rare). The words she says most often are bubble, kitty and shoe - oh and hello when the phone is ringing for real, or on TV...pretty cute!! She can also say a, b, c, d of the abc song - this is because every single toy made says the abc's, and so do the TV shows. She has also started giving hugs more, and is not being so stingy with those, but we still rarely get kisses. She has started taking a liking to her smaller stuffed animals and dolls, and will hug them and carry them around for a min with one arm. When she hugs you, the kitty (Mr. Blue), Ashlee, or a doll/stuffed animal she also says hhmmmmmm - I guess that's just her lovin on you sound - the thumb almost always goes into the mouth too when she hugs on Ashlee or kitty. She is also still lovin her raggies - oh she says that too, but it's more like gigie, and when she see's a gigie the thumb goes into the mouth - only the right one.

Kerstyn's Christmas

Kerstyn had a great time on Christmas with everybody! She woke up from her nap a little cranky, but got over it soon. She was in a great mood, and had a blast opening presents and playing with everyone. She's got too much stuff!!!!!!

gettin into presents, and reading

We only had the presents under the tree for a couple of days, and you can see why. The bottom of the tree is now bear, and the top is full of stuff...lol. She had fun taking things off the tree and running from me as I tried to get it. We play chase everyday now just because she thought it was so much fun, and I tell her I'm gonna get you...

Kerstyn just loves to read, and she is actually reading this book outloud. It was so cute - I've got it on video - I'll see if I can post it too :).

sitting in her grocery cart

Kerstyn loves it when I push her around the house in her shopping cart, but doesn't like it much when we stop. At least I'm in better shape now - so I can last a bit longer :).

checkin out the snowmen

Kerstyn loves Mr. Blue, and he and Ashlee are both so good with her!!! She will go up and give each of them 'hugs' - which consists of sucking her thumb, and laying her head/upper body on them. She is so so lovie!!

I don't think I've mentioned that she now has 6 teeth. 2 on bottom that are in good, 2 on top that are in pretty good, but still coming thru, and the 2 next to the 2 on top that are just showing thru some - so they've got some more to come out still. She's been teething horribly for her 1 yr molars, and I'm afraid to stick my finger in there because she almost took the end off with just 2 bottom teeth - wowza!!!

I just had to include the 2 pics of her and I - where she was having a fit by the way - but seriously - she doesn't even look like my kid!!!

she woke up from her nap...

to a bright pretty tree to touch! Since this has been up - she can't refuse herself the pleasure of removing at least 3 candy canes, and some sparkly gold twistie thingies at least 4 times a day. When she sees me coming she takes off as fast as she can (she's getting pretty fast!) in the opposite direction.

climbing to the top!

I'm sure these won't post in order, but you can put together the stages of Kerstyn climbing up a chair. Then she proceeds to leep off the side by steping like she can walk on air. Ahha...can't turn my head for a second!!

Kerstyn's 1st twinkie :)

the day before gramma Block went home

Kerstyn finally got a little used to her gramma being around, but still wanted to stay close to momma! Just like gramma said..."She'll get used to me when it's time for me to go home".

We miss you gramma Block!
