Caylin & Sienna


The other day Ashlee and Sienna came over to play for a bit. Sienna is two weeks older than Caylin, but you wouldn't know it by looking at them - Sienna is four pounds bigger and over two inches longer! Caylin really is a munchkin compared to Sienna! They had lots of fun together, and Caylin enjoyed having someone around that really spoke her language!

Gardner Village




Last Saturday we went with my family to Gardner Village to see the lights and the elves. Caylin loved the elves - she really got a kick out of them! We didn't realize it, but we showed up just in time to see the live nativity they were putting on out there as well. Caylin liked watching all the animals also.

All About Caylin

Okay, so I was thinking that I wanted to post some random things about Caylin, so here it goes:

Age: 8 months, 25 days
Weight: 14 pounds, 10 ounces (as of 2 1/2 weeks ago)
Height: 26 3/4 inches (as of 2 1/2 weeks ago)
Favorite food: bananas (in chunks or mashed); whatever anyone else is eating at the time
Favorite time of day: bath time
Favorite book: Goodnight Moon
Favorite animal: it's a toss up between a dog and a cat
Favorite song: The Wheels on the Bus
Favorite game: Peek-a-boo; Pat-a-cake
Favorite toy: either the phone or whatever else she can get her hands on that she's really not supposed to have
Hates: the vacuum cleaner

There's Caylin in a nutshell

I made it!

Okay, so I know this probably isn't as exciting to some of you as it is to me, but I finally made it back to my pre-baby weight. I know you're probably thinking also that it has also been nine months, which would seem like plenty of time, but when you gain 63, yes, 63 pounds to begin with, it is a big deal to get it back off. Plus the fact that I had just run a marathon when I got pregnant means that I had a lot to live up to, at least in my mind. My goal was to lose it by the time Caylin was nine months, and I made it, by just a few days. I was watching home movies this morning of when she was born, and let me just say, I hope I never look like that again! (Don't get me wrong, Caylin was worth every bit!!!)

Random "Caylinness"

I found her all wrapped up in daddy's shirt playing peek-a-boo with the sleeve.

Caylin was fascinated with the falling snow outside.

my little fuzzhead

She has a strange obsession with the laundry baskets!

The sticker says "I'm a Cutie"





Caylin's Christmas Tree


So this is Caylin's Christmas tree that is in her room. She absolutely loves it. She gets so excited every time she sees her little one or our big one.

Bus ride to see Santa


Caylin got to experience her first Healey family bus ride to see Santa on Monday. We usually ride the bus to Trax and then go downtown to see Santa, but since there is no Santa downtown this year, we went to Fashion Place. After nearly missing the bus in the first place and two transfers, we made it, all 27 of us. As you can see from the pictures, Caylin just loved Santa! It is pretty cute, though, that as I was telling her that morning that we were going to see Santa and kept telling her over and over that Santa says "Ho, ho, ho," she finally caught on, only her version is more of an "Oh, oh, oh." It is pretty cute, because as she saw the pictures of Santa as I was downloading them, she got all excited and started telling me what he says.
