Happy 2nd Birthday to Our Sweet Princess Katelyn!


Today Katelyn turned two years old! Wow, that went fast! She’s no longer a baby but a true toddler!
She gets prettier every day, and her personally outshines everyone’s. She’s very determined and stubborn at the same time. She’s fun loving and a trouble maker. Her energy is contagious, you can’t help but be happy and smiling when you are around her. There are times when she gets moody, but overall, she’s only happy little girl! Her hugs and kisses are priceless!

This week we took her to see her pediatrician, Dr. Yia. Katelyn weighed in at 28 pounds (75%), 36 inches tall (95%), and her head measured at 18 1/4 inches (25%). Her head has always been on a smaller side, but it’s nothing to worry about, as long as she stays on the same curve (~25%) it’s normal.
She got her hearing tested, which was normal. She was really well behaved the whole time and she’s not a fan of going to the doctor’s office. She’s met or exceeded all of the milestones, and physically is one healthy kid! I’m proud to say that she’s only taken antibiotics once in her life, and hasn’t had any other sicknesses, other than little colds that she was able to beat on her own!!

She can express her feelings pretty well now, especially if she doesn’t like something! She’s stringing together sentences and repeating everything that Ashley says. We’ve also started potty training, she loves to pee like a big girl, but so far she's not pooping on the potty. She can count up to 20 with a tiny bit of help, and loves to color just like Ashley! She is still very active, so jumping and running are her two favorite things!

For her birthday, we all chipped in and bought Katelyn a giant bouncy castle. She and Ashley absolutely love it! They can play with it for a long time and it gets them very tired, which is not an easy thing to do.

Here are a couple videos and pictures of them in the bouncy house:



Tomorrow we are having a Kitten Themed Birthday Party for Katelyn, so today we had just a small cake for Katelyn. We sang happy birthday and she blew out her candles all by herself on the first try!
