So Big!

I took Kaitlin for a weight check today and she weighs 18lbs, 14oz She is up 1 lb, 6oz since the last time she went. This is great news and the doctor was very pleased with her gain. No bloodwork! WooHoo!!!!! I was very proud of Kaitlin today because she was such a big girl at the doctor's office. She didn't fight me when I put her on the scale and she sat there quietly until the nurse got her weight. Then, when the doctor examined her, she sat still and didn't cry at all! What a big girl!


How big is Kaitlin?


















Soooo big!

Fourth Meal

Apparently, Kaitlin has subscribed to the Taco Bell "4th Meal" idea. Last night when I was getting her bottle ready for bedtime, Kaitlin climbed into the refrigerator, opened the fruit drawer and reached in for a banana (the drawer is too deep for her to grab one herself). Then she practically pulled the bread off the shelf. All the while signing "eat" over and over again. She ended up eating 2/3 of a banana, 3/4 of a piece of toast, a slice of cheese, maybe 10 goldfish crackers, 3 mini nilla wafers, and drank 5 ounces of milk. I'm pretty sure the only other time I've seen her eat anything close to that amount at one time is on pasta night. If she hasn't put on a good bit of weight when I take her to the doctor next week, I will be shocked!

A Goofy Weekend

We went to Disney World this past weekend for the marathon and half marathon. The weekend started off well for Keven because the Gators won the National Championship on Thursday night. We were in the car for part of the game, but got to watch the last half when we stopped overnight in Tifton. While I am not usually a Gator fan, I will admit that I was rooting for them this time and I even taught Kaitlin how to do the Gator chomp.

On Saturday, Keven, Kenny, and I ran the half marathon. It went really well and I finished in under 3 hours! Our friends Annie and Fred ran the half marathon as well and it was fun to visit with them before and after the race. We haven't seen them since their wedding and still haven't met their daughters:( Keven took on the Goofy Race and a Half Challenge and ran the marathon on Sunday as well. He is definitely goofy!

We ate dinner at Chef Mickey's on Saturday night and got to meet all the best characters: Mickey, Minnie, Goofy, Pluto, and Donald Duck. If you're going to Disney and want to do a character dinner, that is definitely the one to do. Kaitlin was soooo excited to meet the characters and didn't get scared at all like we thought she might (except for one group hug from Mickey). We took Kaitlin to The Magic Kingdom for the first time on Sunday and she had a great time. She got to meet Pooh, Tigger, and Eeyore! She also got to experience a Mickey ice cream bar which she loved! Here are the pictures which I'm sure is what you really want to see!
