I realized that I haven't had a lot of posts about our little Miss Kellie lately. Part of this is, perhaps, that she isn't involved in a lot of activities beyond supporting her brothers in their activities. The other part is that it is kind of hard to post cute little stories about the cute little things she says because Kellie is not really talking.
For quite a while, we have known that her speech was not where it was supposed to be for her age. She does not talk in complete sentences yet, and although improving all the time, her vocabulary is extremely limited. Understandably, this causes a lot of frustration for everyone. After much trouble we finally got her an appointment to be evaluated and they determined that she does have a speech delay and will be joining preschool in the Fall where a speech therapist will be working one on one with her to help her learn to talk. We are VERY excited about this and hope to have her babbling away in no time.
Kellie has reached another milestone, though! She recently caught on and is completely potty trained! Wow, what a relief! We are SO glad she is no longer in diapers or pull ups. Way to go Kellie!
Miss Kellie still has wild, beautiful, long curly hair. Because it is a challenge to get her to cooperate long enough for me to tame it- we have invested in a large assortment of pretty hair things. Kellie LOVES looking pretty and likes to say "TA-DA!" when she is all done up. My sister Jerri Lynn has a friend who makes adorable hair things and we loaded up on several of her creations. Kellie absolutely loves them! (Her website is www.flowerzinherhair.com) In the pictures above she is wearing some of her favorites...
We love you Miss Kellie!
