11/21/11 - Kaitlyn had her 7 year old checkup and weighs 44 pounds and is 44 1/4 inches long. Shes doing great in school. She has started reading various books and writing more common words. She started Girl Scouts the beginning of the school year and loves it.
1/22/11 - Kaitlyn finally lost her first tooth! It started getting loose right before Halloween. I thought it would never come out. She already has her two bottom adult teeth growing, so hoping the other one comes out soon so those adult ones can move up front.
10/29/10 - Kaitlyn had her 6 yr checkup tonight...Shes 37 pounds and is 41 1/4 inches long....shes 10% for weight. I forgot about her height...shes def stayed in the 10% and the dr said shes just petite, which I knew. She got her flu shot and didnt even wimper. Overall, shes doing great! Afterwards, we hit TOT at the ES and wow....a little crazy, but the girls had a good time so that's all that matters. We met up w/ Kaitlyn's teacher Mrs. Datz and her daughter, Sophia. They both ran into some classmates which was cute to watch. They both got a book to take home and Kaitlyn took home a cupcake.
10/27/10 - Kaitlyn has her first loose tooth!! She kept complaining that her bottome tooth hurt and she thought it was loose. I didnt check until bedtime when I took my nail and wiggled her tooth. Yup! Its loose! Its a bittersweet moment. I was so excited for her but then bawled like a baby because I knew this was the last thing I was holding on to of her as a baby. Kaitlyn def reminded that shes not a baby anymore when she said to me "relax mommy, its only 1 tooth". LOL
10-2-10 - Kaitlyn turned 6 today. We had a simple party at the house and she wanted a specific cake, so I decided to buy it for her instead of making one this year. I made cupcakes and brought them to her school the friday before. She got sent up a birthday hat and someone bought in some cookies because of her birthday. We ordered pizza for dinner since thats what she wanted instead of McDonalds. Overall, she enjoyed her birthday.
1/20/2010 - Kaitlyn wrote her name in school! It was spelled K A T I L Y N T, but its a start. The next day, she did have it spelled corrected on a paper she brought home.
10/26/09 - Kaitlyn had a 5 yr checkup and weighs 33 1/2 pounds and is 39 3/4 inches tall. My peanut is 25% for height and 10 % for weight(or vice versa..I cannot remember). She got 3 shots in 1 arm and the 4th in the other and that one hurt. She took the others w/o a flinch. I also had a lab sheet that I need to take her to test her urine, which I wind up having to get a sample at home and bring it in, which worked out a lot better.
9/26/09 - Kaitlyn had her 5th birthday party at Duffield's farm and it was a great success. She had a great time playing w/ her friends and cousins and got great presents!
7/14/2009 - Kaitlyn is officially registered for preschool. She missed the cutoff date by one day last year, so she will be turning 5 going to preschool. Thats okay though b/c I dont think she was ready last year. I def think she's ready. Its only for 2 1/2 hours for 2 days starting in September. Info will come in the mail by August.
10/22/08 - Kaitlyn had her 4 yr old checkup last night. Hehe, she's such a peanut. She in the 10% for weight and around 20% for height. Shes 37 1/4 inches and weighs 27 1/2 pounds. The dr was impressed that K is interested in the days of the week and the time. Thats about it in a nutshell til next year. Her biggest accomplish this year was spelling her first name! I'm so proud of her!
10/22/07 - Kaitlyn had her 3 yr checkup. Shes just under 3 feet tall at 35 3/4 and weighs 25 pounds. The nurse was checking her blood pressure. This was the first time this was done and Kaitlyn as starting intensely. It was too funny! She behaved very well doing what the doctor told her to do. She was actually impressed that she can point out numbers out of order. :)
10/2/2007 - Kaitlyn turn 3 years old today!!!!! I wind up taking the day off so we can take her to the Philadelphia Zoo for her birthday. I think she had a great time. I know I sure did!!! We were there for a few hours and it worked out since she was due for a nap anyways. We went to McD's for dinner and my ILs and friends of ours stopped over for some cake. She got some great gifts and Im sure she loved all the attention she was getting!
I know she's been trying to get potty trained since the beginning of September. I've been hoping that she would be fully trained by her bday and I honestly think I can say that Kaitlyn is fully potty trained! She's been doing great even when we're out! Yay!!!! Now it's back to only buying diapers for one! :)
9/4/07 - Yesterday marked day 1 of Kaitlyn being completely dry!!!! Woohoo!!! I wind up buying M&M's over the weekend and been using them to help her go on the potty more. Its been working. I would give her 1 for sitting on the potty and 2 for actually going. I dont think Im gonna bother giving her the 1 since w/in a few minutes of actually going, she would want to sit on the potty again. Anyways...shes been dry the entire day! In fact, she woke up at 8 yesterday morning and laid w/ me on the sofa for an hour and was still completely dry, so I finally stuck her on the potty and she went pee pee! She got 4 M&M's just b/c she stayed dry! I was worried since she hasnt poop all day. But, while we were in the LR last night eating our dinner, Kaitlyn was playing on the coffee table and all of a sudden, she bolted saying "i gotta go pee pee". "I think I went poo poo". Yup! She did! Thankfully it was in the potty...ugh...its gross cleaning poopy training pants...yuck! Sooooooooo...so far so good! :)
8/23/07 - Last night, Kaitlyn went pee pee on the potty 3 times!!!! When she first told me that she wanted to go pee pee on the potty, I took her but didnt expect much. She tells me "I think I went pee pee in the potty". When I told her to step away, I couldnt believe it!!!! Chris and I clapped and chanted. She got her first Slim Jim for going on the potty!!! Then about a half hour later she went again!! I think shes getting the hang of it. When she took her diaper off to go on the potty, she did have some pee in there, so shes prob not realizing thats shes going until she starts. ???? This is huge!!!
7/31/07 - Kaitlyn is totalling loving her new baby sister! Nicole is already 6 weeks! Kaitlyn constantly wants to hold her and take care of her. I think she loves her sister a little too much b/c she has a fit when she cannot hold her. We're still struggling w/ potty training. Shes definately stubborn and lazy. She did take a huge step and voluntarily pulled everything down and sat on her potty. She's def capable, but is lazy! I cannot believe my baby will be 3 soon. :(
5/13/07 - Today is Mother's Day. Ugh...between Kaitlyn becoming a big girl this weekend and these pregnancy hormones, Ive been a waterfall all weekend. Yesterday, after leaving church, my dad told me to let myself in to their house b/c he was going shopping w/ Kaitlyn. Once they arrive back home, Kaitlyn walked over to me w/ a red carnantion and said "happy mothers day"...I just started bawling. She was looking at me w/ this concerned look on her face....but they were happy tears....It was a precious moment.
5/12/07 - This has been the worse 24 hours of my life. My daughter is no longer a baby. :( Yesterday, Chris converted her crib into a daybed...Chris asked her to get in to see if she would be able to get on herself. She was so proud of herself. She slept the entire night. In fact, I opened her door at 7:30 this morning. She was laying in the bed awake. When I asked if she was, she put the blanket over herself and said "no". Fine...so I left the door open a crack and crawled back into bed w/ Chris. When shes ready, she'll get up, he said. She scared the crap out of me. Within 5 minutes, she was on my side climbing up the bed. Then a half hour ago, I wanted to put her down for a nap. I told her to get in her room and lay down...she did exactly that. She laid on her belly w/ her head on the pillow and was getting all snugged in. I covered her up w/ the blanket and closed her door. :( I was literally crying on the phone w/ my mom. I guess in a way I was hoping she wouldnt like the new transition b/c that would mean she's still a baby. Gosh...whats gonna happen to me when shes fully potty trained!
3/16/07 - I swear..some of the things that come out of her mouth lately. Chris' cousin stopped over for a bit. He wanted a hug from Kaitlyn. Chris mentioned that he has to bribe her w/ $. He reached in his pocket for some change, when Kaitlyn said "no, dollars." 
I couldnt believe it!!!! Now thats my girl! The other night, Kaitlyn said something and Chris said, "Im the daddy, Im the boss". Kaitlyn turns around and says "mommy is the boss!". Alright!
3/12/2007 - Kaitlyn is 2 years and 5 months. Gosh....she's getting so big. Some of the things she does and says now just amazes me. My stomach is getting bigger each week. Kaitlyn knows a baby is in mommy's tummy, but I dont think she grasp the concept that this baby will be living w/ us soon. :) I think for a while this baby will have her own room, but eventually they will share. Kaitlyn is in the "mine" phase, so Im hoping this transition would be too painful. :)
1/10/07 - Ugh, I was hoping this potty training thing would be easy. Kaitlyn has been showing signs, but when its time for the potty, she wants nothing to do w/ it. Since Kaitlyn will be a big sister in June, I would like her potty trained before the new baby arrives. Why cant it just be easy! LOL Kaitlyn is doing so well in her vocabulary. She says everything now..which we have to be careful. She sings her ABC's even if not all the letters are correct and counts up to 20..sortof. She knows some colors and shapes. Oh what a fun age! Everyday she surprises us w/ her personality.
