Happy Year and a Half!

Our little Buggy is growing up!! 18 months- hard to believe!  September has been a busy month, between Caelin starting back to daycare and school starting back up for us.  The weather has been beautiful and we have enjoyed afternoon walks and weekly playdates with C's buddies from school.  Caelin has become quite the daredevil lately, pushing the limit on just about everything.  From flinging herself down the slide to trying to scale the rock wall on the playground, she most certainly is going to keep us on our toes!  On the talking front- Cael's and her friends are like little sponges.  They hear everything and then test out their own version at all different octaves!  Here are a few of the most popular words..
Shisshy = gold fish
Outsideee= no explanation needed =:)
Uppie = pick me up....not in a minute, NOW!
Uppie peez = if you don't hurry up and pick me up I am going to flop and throw a fake tantrum
EmmmmEEEEE: Emmett, one of Caelin's good buddies from school.  She likes to yell his name!
Eeeeesssss: Reese, another sidekick at school.  They fight like sisters...it's pretty cute!
In response to "Who loves you most"? she responds "Mommy n Mum".  This is the best way to start and end a day!
Buh-Byeeee
Apple, Eezza (pizza), pieces (peaches), Milk, ookie (cookie), ice cream and eatbo (meathball)
Deez....NihNih = Usually in a high pitched voice as she chases Diesel and Nike around the house.
I-Fi= High Five...whenever the dogs are laying around, she tries to get them to give her high fives.  If they don't respond, she picks up their paw and makes them give her a high five. 
WuffU= Love you!

              That's right, I pop my collar...that's how I roll!

Just playing around, wearing the hat she made at school

Buh-Byeeee Kellie!

Dear Auntie Kellie,

Now that you are gone, I miss....
- sneaking into your room when you'd leave the door open by accident
-playing with your makeup brushes
-emptying out your Qtip box
-playing "owwside" with you when you came home from work
-brushing teeth together in the morning
-giving you hugs and kisses before bed
-you being my very own personal safety monitor
-how much you loved Nike and how he stared at you...
-wearing your clothes
-borrowing your purses
-crying for no reason so you would pick me up
- and the many other fun times we had together this summer!
I hope you like your new apartment near Nanny's house.  Make sure you have child proof doors, because it looks like I can almost open up foors on my own, so if you want me to stay out of your room when I come to visit, I'd lock those doors!  I had lots of fun with you while you lived here and will miss you very much! 
Love,
Caelin

Shh...don't tell Kellie I stole her favorite Sox tee!

Kisses for Auntie Kell through the screen!

Secrets OUT!

This little monkey has a secret....

 This little monkey is going to be a BIG sister!!

QT with Boo Boo

Caelin got to spend her last 2 weekends of summer hanging out with Bailey so that I could help out after Kara's shoulder surgery.  The girls had a lot of fun together playing on the porch and hanging out in the tide pools at the beach.  It took a little getting used to but by weekend #2, they were sharing toys and referring to each other as Caenna and BooBoo.  It was great to be able to spend so much time with Bails (and Neely too)- we wish we lived a little closer so we could see her more often!  Thank you BooBoo for sharing all your toys (especially the Cozy Coop) and for a lot fun times at the beach!

Hooray!!!

CHEEEEESE!

Beach time!

Drinks on the beach!

Sharing a ride in the Coop!
