Josie's Turn

Poor Kelsey has been getting all the blog attention lately so I thought I'd update everyone on Josie for a change :) Josie has discovered clapping but I'm not certain if she's actually meaning to clap or if this is her sign for "more" as she only does it when she's eating. Only time will tell :) Kona has become her best friend since she now is the "messy" eater. Josie loves to eat "real" food like chicken, cheese, most any fruit and cheerios. She's still skeptical of veggies - fresh, frozen, canned or jarred. Hopefully one day she gets over it!

She's really mastered crawling and is now getting into EVERYthing. Her favorites are the dog dishes, recycle and the laundry room where the cat box and cat dishes are. She also love to pull up on the toilets. Why do kids go for the dirtiest things in the house?? She has just recently discovered how to climb up the stairs as well as how to use the walking toys. Josie turns ten months on Sunday - I can't wait to see what it brings!






A girl and her vacuum :) Kona noticed that Josie had gotten the lid off her cheerios and plopped herself right by her in case an opportunity arose to sneak a snack.

Sleep Study Update

For those of you who follow this blog I figured I'd update everyone on the sleep study. It was determined that Kelsey has borderline apnea. So at this point she doesn't have to do any c-pap machine or surgery thankfully. Since apnea tends to inflame the sinuses they put her on Singulair which is typically used for asthma and allergies. She takes it every night before bed and so far its been working wonders! She sleeps through the night more often than not and we haven't noticed her coughing or gasping at all. Hopefully this will be just a temporary solution and she doesn't have to stay on it for a long period of time. But for now our little girl is finally getting the good sleep she needs!

K is for Kelsey


Kelsey decided to start writing Ks this week and loves to practice on my arm. She's getting pretty good!

Go Elks!

Last weekend we went to visit Chuck's family in Longview. We were lucky enough to visit on a day that our nephew Rylee had a baseball game. This was Kelsey's first game and she loved it! Rylee and team did great and pulled out a win. Way to go Elks!

Happy Easter!

Kelsey really enjoyed Easter this year! She LOVED hunting for eggs and was rather disappointed that there weren't more to find (sorry kiddo - they're packed in moving boxes!) After our fun at home we headed to our cousin Victoria and Leland's house for more Easter and some birthday celebration.
