My sweets, you turned a year and a half old on the 23rd. Can it be?! Wowie!! I am so thankful for the moments we've shared and am anxious for the newness to come!!
Karis Reagan, you are my sugar! Your sweetness reaches the deepest corners of my heart! You love sitting in laps and there's no one more amazing to you than your Daddy! Although of a cautious nature, you like people and will usually go to just about anyone who will swoon and adore you. You know your colors and enjoy reading, singing and watching movies. You have quite the eye for detail and play "i spy" very well. You have developed a liking for "helping" me around the house. When you get hurt, everyone around must know that your world is falling apart and you require a lot of love. You enjoy rearranging things and do very well with a schedule. You are a dainty eater and usually leave a little bit of everything on your plate...fruit is not your thing. You do not like sticky things on your hands, nor do you like being dirty. Right now, you enjoy walking by yourself and will promptly say "walk" if you do not want to be held. You are very independent and stubborn when you choose to be. If your sister has something you want, you squeal and take it. Your favorite word right now is "help". You say this word over and over until I respond to you with "show me", and you lead me to what you're asking for. In order to sleep, you need your snuggli and your left thumb. You go to bed between 7-7:30pm and sleep til 8:30am. You are quick to give hugs and kisses in abundance! Kare Bear, I adore your sweet, loving spirit! You are a precious girl!
Kelsie Jordyn, you are my spice! Your expressions are priceless and you make me laugh often! You remind me of your Daddy with your even keeled, "It's all good" personality. Life to you, is a dance! You're always movin'!! You have a fairly short attention span, because you're so excited to go experience something new. You love to sing, climb, dance, watch movies, run, and get into things. You are a fantastic eater and usually gobble up everything on your plate...you love fruit! You do not say as much as Karis, but you will communicate if there's something worth saying. With you, it's more sound affects than words. When you get hurt, you run to me, have me kiss your hand(even if the injury occurred elsewhere), and once you receive your kiss, you're better and off playing again. I know it's a very bad thing when you actually take the time to cry about something. You typically allow your sister to have her way and take things from you without quarrel. You like books, but you prefer toys that play music or light up. You are not a people person and are pretty skeptical of strangers. Whereas, Kare will go to anyone, you're a Mommy's girl. Although not a snuggler, you like your Mommy time and then once you've had your fill, you're off on a new adventure. To sleep, you need your snuggli and your right thumb. You share the same sleep hours with your sister, for which I am truly grateful! All in all, you brighten my life and constantly remind me to be joyful! You're my happy little "action shot"!!
I thank the Lord for the time that I have been given with you, Darlings, and I am SO thankful to be your Mommy!! You have grown my heart to twice it's size and I couldn't imagine loving you more than I do! You truly are blessings from above!
