18 months and 2 months: Milestones in the Kinney House






So, I turned 18 months old on November 15th and after having my obligatory flu shot, found out I was a whopping 23 lbs! I'm tall, too... apparently 32 inches long. America's Next Top Model here I come! I started practicing the cat walk in Mommy's shoes the other day. I've got quite the strut. My newest verbal developments include: a rather defiant "No, no, no...," a very clear "mom" and "Da-ady," "Nana," "Dudy" (baby talk for Grampy), "TT" for Auntie Taryn, "Papaul" or Papa Paul, "ball," "Coco," "Peese" or please, "Cheese," and sadly, "Chiz" or Cheers! You can tell I come from a boozey family! Other words come out and sound a little muffled, but I'm working on it! Doctor says I'm ahead of the game so that's good. I know the alphabet sounds, too. My favorite letter is P... I like to go around the house shouting "Pa-Pa-Pa-Pa!" It is funny at first, but apparently it gets old when we're sitting in Church. -SJK


My turn! I turn 2 months old on December 17th and boy, have I grown! I'm 10lbs, 4 oz and 22 1/4 inches long. I'm hoping to outgrow my sister Stella by the time I'm 4 months old! Sibling rivalry is alive and well in our house! My latest developments include cooing and smiling and holding my head up. Tummy time isn't my favorite trick, but I appease Mommy for a minute or two. I'm awake more these days and mighty alert... usually just in time for that "witching hour" of 6pm. Good times. We went on our first trip to Lake Tahoe this past weekend and I did just fine.
