Yes. It's true. My daughter is afraid of a farting skunk.
We went to cracker barrel the other night cause hubby and I were celebrating our 2 year anniversary and thats where we went the night we got married cause I was weird and craving it. Well there was a stuffed animal skunk and kaci liked it..at first. Then we realized it had a woopie cushion in it and if you squeeze it it farts. Well we squeezed it thinking kaci would laugh. NO she screamed and started shaking and got just full blown terrified. So me,being the wonderful mother I am, pulls out my phone and records it because well...that is hilarious !!!! I went there for breakfast this morning and Kaci went with me and we try again to see if maybe she warmed up to it...NO she is still afraid lol. Its so funny to me to see what kids are scared of. So enjoy the video. And Kaci when you read this...I am sorry but you gotta admit that is freaking hilarious !!!!!

Walking. Falling. Walking some more...
It's happened. My child is trying to walk. I think I prayed for this day for forever and now that it is here I am not sure how I feel about it. When she tries to walk and takes a few steps she looks so..."grown up" I realize that she is only 15 months old but she just doesn't look like my itty bitty baby anymore she is my very tall very beautiful very AMAZING toddler. Toddler....ugh that word. She isn't my baby !!! She is in her own room she is in a toddler bed. She doesn't even need me to entertain her anymore she prefers to go to her room and play and watch barney until naptime. This is a very bittersweet time. Yes I love the age she is at she is bunches of fun and gosh I just love when she does new things but when did she get so big? When did she go from that little blob that only woke up to eat and poop to walking and talking and not needing me for very much anymore...I know why people have more than one kid now. You get the itching to be needed again. When she goes to school I know thats when we will finally have another one. Until then I really don't think we will be ready at all. And I am totally fine with that cause lets face it I am not the happiest pregnant person in the world lol. And Kaci is more than enough right now. But, I can understand why people get the feeling of not being needed anymore and thinking well then I'll just have another one.
So I went to the doc the other day (I have a bladder infection btw) and Kaci came along as always because she LOVES going anywhere with me. Well she was standing up in the waiting area holding onto the WOODEN chairs walking and she was going to transition from this one wooden chair to the other but she was gonna have to let go and walk to the other one not holding onto anything. It was literally 2-3 steps max she was gonna have to take. Well I was watching her and sure enough she went for it and everything looked good until she leaned forward to reach for the chair and she leaned to early and face plants right into the wooden chair. My Lord I have never heard her scream so loud. I am sure everyone in that waiting are thought I was a terrible parent. I held her and comforted her and told her it was okay and I have to admit I cried right along with her. She eventually stopped screaming enough for me to look at it. She had busted her top lip and her nose was bleeding on both sides. I just knew her nose was broken I kept asking the doctor if I would know and begging her to look and she kept saying she couldnt see anyone under 2 but put my mind at ease and said if her nose was broken it would swell immediately. And of course every nurse that came in after her I asked and they said the same thing and one even touched her nose and wiggled it around and poked it and Kaci just laughed so we are sure its not broken. I felt like a bad mommy for a while I will admit it. I couldn't believe I had let her fall. I feel like she is always getting hurt on my watch ya know? I mean she fell out of her bouncer at 3 months old while with me. She crawled off the bed about a month ago when she woke up from a nap and I had the baby monitor on she usually makes some kind of noise so I hear her and of course that day all I heard was CRASH...WAAAAHHHH. And then now she plants her face into this wooden chair while with me. I seriously felt awful. Of course my other mommys quickly put my mind at ease and said that it happens all the time to mothers and well in all honesty it makes sense she would do all that on my watch cause she is with me all the time.
I am just blessed that she is okay. I dunno what I would do if something ever happened to her. I assumed since she fell while trying to walk this would make her scared to do it again. Well, I was wrong. She got right back up about 30 minutes afterwards and was trying again.
She is so awesome. I am so blessed to have her as my daughter. I love you Kaci Jade.

Dear Kaci,
Since mommy can't sleep I figured HEY it's the first and you are 15 months old today lets write your letter since you are on my mind. But lets face it...you never leave my mind. 2:30 in the morning and I am laying here thinking of you. I can't believe 15 months have already went by. I was just telling your aunt Jessica last night that I feel like I gave birth last week. It definitely doesn't feel like it's been 15 months. You grow more and more each day. I honestly can't keep up. You do new things all the time and you just amaze me. You love to say mama as always. MiMi is of course your second favorite word. The last few weeks mommy had surgery so you have spent alot of your time with daddy and mimi cause mommy just couldn't get out of bed or lift you. Trust me it broke my heart. Of course they brought you in here to see me constantly and it's like you knew I was in pain because you crawled up to me on the bed and gave me a big kiss without me even having to ask for it. Talk about making someones night huh? That made me feel better. You would just come and lay your head on me and be such a sweetheart. Your so wonderful. Mama and Mimi bought you a big girl potty tonight. Not saying you are going to be full blown potty training but we are gonna work on it. I am hoping to put you on it while I use the potty and hoping we see some results and maybe by the time you're 2 you will be my potty trained princess but ya know what even if you are still in diapers then it won't matter you will still be my wittle princess. You and me and Mimi went out to eat last night. Lets just say you were the center of attention. 3 tables around us were all eyes on you. And you put on such a good show for them. You just talked to them and waved and did "TOUCHDOWN" and wanted everyone to clap for you every time you did something. That is you favorite thing is people clapping for you. And if someone isn't clapping you look at them until they do. It's so precious. You are my little star already. Well my darling right now mommy really needs to get to bed so that I can get up bright and early and play with you. I love you so much my big girl...gosh 15 months already. You gotta slow down with the growing my little bunny...time is just going to fast for mommy. Goodnight my angel I can't wait to open my eyes and hear the sweet sounds of you waking up in the morning.
