A look in the life of Kelsi!

Hi! My name is Kelsi. I am 14 1/2 months old. I love to play on the playground, read books, eat, and play with my sister.
This is my friend Jack. This particular day I said my 5th word- "Je je" for Jack, and later that day for Jessica. Jack and I are 2 weeks apart and moved in within a week of each other. We will also live in the Village about the same amount of time and our moms are friends as well as our older sisters.
Jack is such a gentleman. He always signs "please" and even opened my door for me.

Just checking if you were still paying attention to me. I like attention. :) Although I am very easy going and very good natured and I put up with quite a bit from my sister. I am actually a different baby when my sister is not around. I love to have mommy read me books and have full reign of the toys.

I love to run. I learned to walk the week I turned 1. I took steps before then, but decided that One was a good age to master the walking thing. A week later I had mastered running. ha ha mom :)
My all time favorite thing to do is climb up the stairs of the slide onto a platform that has 3 open edges. I lean over the edge and smile at my mom, who is sitting wanting to visit with friends, but has to dash to my rescue so I don't plummet 3 1/2 feet down to the wood chips below. I think mom finally caught my mishievious grin, well, almost.

When mom does come to my rescue, I run to her with open arms. I like to give hugs.

As you can tell, I LOVE stairs and the harder and more dangerous, the better! Thankfully there is no shortage of stairs and stairwells to play in. As soon as mom shuts one door to a stairwell, there are about 11 others to choose from. Jack and I love to plague our moms by running to the stairwells, and if that is not enough, my sister Jessica's favorite thing to do it to open doors mom has just shut. I also LOVE to climb on the step stool in the kitchen. If it is out, I am on it and playing with the stuff on the counter. I haven't figured out how to climb down yet, and seeming as our kitchen floor is industrial tile, mom doesn't let me do that very often.

All in all, I am a very very good kid. :) I love my Mom, Sister and Daddy so much and they LOVE me!!!

I wish I could scoop her up in my arms and give her "super-kisses" right NOW! I miss her and you and Jes and DJ and Mom and Dad and Britt and Kyler and Casen and Pyper and Oreo... um, no not really, but the rest of you I miss terribly. :)

That was hilarious, and also a pretty accurate description of our days in the court. ;)

I love hearing about the little achievements! Aren't they the best?

So, we hadn't noticed the black shoes were missing yet so thanks! Luckily we don't wear those as much as we do in the winter time. We would love to go the zoo with you sometime, but isn't it getting too cold? What do you think? When do you want to go?

Cute!!! You're so creative. Ashley, when did you find the time to teach Kelsi how to read, type, and blog, not to mention upload pictures to the web. Talk about an advanced baby! :)

I think you did almost catch the grin. How appropriate that it was on the platform to the slide.
