Kitra's First Halloween!!

Halloween was SUCH a fun Holiday!!

Kitra was a cabbage patch doll and people loved it!! We got so many compliments!

I got the idea from pinterest....of course and we just ran with it!

Here are a few photos of the box making process!
My Dad and Tyler came up with the concept for the box!
A huge thank you to My Dad for cutting out and painting the box for us :)


Then I had the task of creating the stickers and embellishing the box!
I ended up adding K's name at the top!

The ultimate THANK YOU goes to my
Cousin Chelsea who crocheted the amazing hat Kitra wore!
                                                   
                                                                       


Now what to be next year to top this costume...hmmm!

Kitra is 10 Months!

Disclaimer....I am SO sad I am this far behind!! 
We had a very busy October!!

Kitra was 10 Months on Sunday October 5th, 2014.


At 10 Months Kitra was:
23lbs 2oz
28.5 ins long

Kitra attended her 1st KSU Football Tailgate!


Then another!

I felt like Kitra really grew up at 9 months...but 10 months was a whole new world! I look at her 10 month photo and think she look like a little person and no longer a baby :(
It makes me a little sad but more proud of the fun little lady she is becoming!

Between 9 months and 10 months Kitra started walking behind her puppy walker! She can buzz right around!! 
She also started exploring cabinets....

Kitra has become quite the imitator she mimics everything we do! 
So fun to watch her little brain work :)

Kitra's First Haircut

Sunday Septemeber 28th 
Kitra had her very first haircut!!


Great Aunt Connie Prockish did the cutting!
(Connie is also Kitra's daycare provider)

Aunt Connie did my first haircut so we thought it was super special she is able to cut Kitra's for the first time as well :) I think it helped that Kitra sees Connie everyday instead of some strange person headed towards you with scissors.

Here are some fun photos!!



She got sleepy by the end :)




Our Little Girl just keeps growing and growing!!

Kitra is 9 months!!

On Friday September 5th Kitra was 9 Months!

At 9 Months Kitra is:
21.8lbs
and 
28.3 ins long

Currently Kitra LOVES:

Standing!! Kitra pulls her self up to stand EVERYWHERE!

In addition she has been walking while holding onto 
things such as her play pen or our couch!
She also can walk behind a puppy walker :)

We have loved every second of having Kitra but I can definitely say 9 months is such a FUN age!! Kitra is truly becoming a little person...she has SO much personality and is becoming so animated!

Dancing....Kitra has always liked listening to music of any kind but in the last few weeks she has been getting her grove on...rocking back & forth, shaking her head and booty. So cute to watch!

She is wearing big kid shoes, drinks from a sippy cup, has been cleared to try all sort of regular food and has her very own swing.


Daddy is a little big for the play pen but it doesn't stop him!!

Kitra and Gypsy are getting closer...
Kitra just loves Gypsy and well Gypsy is slowly coming around.





Although many people including myself think Kitra is my mini me she does have qualities of her Daddy too!! Their ears and eyes are very similar!

Kitra is 8 Months!

On Tuesday August 5th Kitra was 8 Months Old!!


At 8 Months Kitra was:
21lbs
and 
28 in long

She is up 1lbs and 1 whole inch from last month!! She is growing like a weed :)
She is currently wearing her 9 month clothes out and fits best in 12 to 18 month items!! 
She is gaining her Ward Baby Status!!
This was July 21st

7.5 to 8 months marked the begining of a whole new adventure for us CRAWLING and pulling our self up!!
Kitra moves like lighting...and has a very unique one legged crawl...you have to see it in person!


Kitra LOVES playing pat-a-cake...she know how to give high fives and low fives when you ask her to.
Although she has mastered crawling, fives and pulling her self up this little girl will not say Mama :(
She goes on and on babbling all sorts of sounds and can say Dada PERFECTLY!!


This is how we find Kitra most mornings!! Sitting up playing in her crib ready to tackle the day!

It is crazy how in just a matter of months what a child can learn and do!! Kitra is gaining her own personality day by day. She is such a joy to watch grow! We love ya Kitra Anne :)

Kitra is 6 Months!

So I am a few days...(okay 2+ weeks) late 
but here it is Kitra's 6 month blog post!!

On Thursday June 5th Kitra Anne was 6 Months Old!
 Really where the heck has the time gone?!?
The pretty picture you see!

This is one of many you usually don't :) Take 12 choose the best!

At 6 Months Kitra was:

18lbs 10oz and 27 inches long

She has started eating solid foods
and loves sweet potatoes, peas, and apple/strawberry/banana baby foods!

She continues to babble away and can form the word Da Da... no Mama yet :(
Silly Faces...

She LOVES her fisher price stack-able tower and still loves any animals real or in toy form.



Especially the little kitty that rode in a car to my Mom's detailing shop that we are keeping till we can find her a new home! If Gypsy didn't hate the kitty so much we would probably have to keep her due to Kit Kat LOVING kitties just as much as her Daddy.



She rolls like crazy and is starting to get into crawling position.

She has mastered sitting as well as handling objects with skill.

A baby who never liked a paci...she would spit it right out. Up until a few days after she turned 6 months we gave it another go and we have created a paci monster :)

We are looking forward to a fun filled July! Kitra's first 4th of July and her first trip to Kearney, NE which will be the longest amount of time she has ever spent in her car seat wish us luck!

Kitra with her super adorable Purple/Pink Bear that Great Grandpa Ray and Nana Jo got her!! As many of you know Tyler had Blue Bear as a child which he received from his Grandpa Ray and Grandma Jolene this bear was VERY special to him and is known by all of his family. Tyler's Grandma had looked and looked for a blue bear but couldn't find one she liked. So we got this beauty in the mail with a letter that read the pink is because you are a girl and the purple is for K-State Go Cats!!
Thanks so much Great Gpa Ray and Nana Jo :)
