Caylee-Grace - Big Girl Now

I have been trying to teach Caylee-Grace to eat with a spoon and fork now. She does better with a spoon then a fork. Here is her eating her oatmeal.


She is getting to be such a big girl. Makes me want to cry - she is growing up too fast. She doesn't like to snuggle much anymore - she is way too busy and into everything. She goes tomorrow for her 15 month check-up. Can you believe she will be 15 months on Friday? She loves crawling up and down the stairs (with us right there with her of course)



She has been trying to walk now for about 2 1/2 weeks, it was two steps then last week 4 steps and today she walked 10 steps. One day she is going to take off and look out it will be on from then. I'm not in a hurry for that. I do wish she would start talking more. She gets on my nerves with her grunting and pointing. She still uses some of the sign language but not much. I think it is a cross between my hormones and my age but I think I have a little nerve problem. For the last few weeks I've just been so overwhelmed and emotional and everything gets on my nerves. I went for my yearly and the doctor gave me something so I'm just waiting on it to kick in so I can feel better. I hate feeling this way. I'm tired all the time and don't feel like doing anything and the "I don't care" attitude and that is so not like me and it bothers me. Hopefully in another week I will be by on track and feel better. Being 40 with a 15 month old isn't as easy as it would be if I were 10 years younger. Exercise has helped some, if I can just keep that up that will help me feel better. Well I'm sorry I'm babbling. She loves to watch the wheel of fortune. She just claps - I tried to get it on video but this is all I could get. You tell her it is time for wheel of fortune and she goes crawling toward the living room and sits in front of the couch and points to the TV.



On a better note, next Thursday, I will be married to my wonderful husband for 10 years. Wow - ten years baby - has it really been that long. Seems like just yesterday we were in Gatlinburg getting married. Randal, you are my best friend and I have enjoyed every minute of that 10 years and I'm looking forward many more together. You are the best Father and Husband I could ever ask for. I love you with all my heart and I wouldn't be where I am today if it wasn't for you. I'm looking forward to going to Gatlinburg next week spending much needed time with my two favorite people you and my precious CG. You have brought such joy to my life. We are heading out for our last weekend of hunting tomorrow then off to Gatlinburg on Monday for 4 days. I can hardly wait. Hope everyone has a great week.
