This month Kaisley is 7 months old. She is doing SO much now. She eats 2 1/2 jars of baby food a day plus a bowl of rice cereal. She has loved everything we have given her EXCEPT turkey. We are mixing it with rice cereal and veggies to disguise it but we need to try another flavor of meats soon. At her last Dr appointment her head measured in the 95th percentile so she had to have another appointment to check on it January 30th. The measurements taken in December were incorrect because her head was 2 inches smaller than what was reported. Her measurements are 17 inches for head circumference which is the 27th percentile, weight 15lb 14.5oz at 15%, and length 26.25 inches at 26%. It is a good even growth and Dr. Reese is very happy with it. Kaisley has also learned to sit unassisted as well as crawl this month. She learned to feed herself with the small cereals and goes crazy for them. They are a necessity for church because they keep her entertained. Our ward boundaries were also changed this month from the 16th to the 24th ward, where Tiff, Jon, and Hayden used to go. We like our new ward and Kiley has been playing church basketball and we are both playing couples volleyball on Friday nights. It is hard to make time for us because our schedules are so busy. Kiley started a new job selling security monitoring and fire-alarms. He has been doing very well but this job is only temporary. I have been watching our neighbors 3 month old, Kaila during the day and then I work at night on Monday, Wednesday, and either Friday or Saturday, sometimes Sundays, and have classes on Tuesday and Thursday nights. I have two classes on CSI's campus and two online classes from ISU. I am working on my BA in Human Resources Corporate Training and Development and hope to be done within a year. I am also taking photos on the side so I am a very busy person. Kaisley has reached the stage where she wants her mommy and so when Kiley gets home we have to be very sneaky about me leaving for work or school. She likes to wrinkle her nose and huff and puff. When she is sitting in her high chair she shakes her head no because she likes the feeling of the back of the highchair against her head so now she will shake her head no a lot. The only annoying thing she has learned is to grind her teeth. From the moment the top two poked through this month she has been grinding them against her bottom two. I even thought there was no way she could while they were still so small I thought there HAD to be molars in there somewhere and even checked. Kaisley keeps us happy and optimistic and we love her more than anything.
