Kaitlynn

Kaitlynn has changed so much since we have been here. She is more like a little person than a little baby. Her babbling is starting to make sense. Mama and Dada are turning into Mommy and Daddy. She also says uh oh and calls the cats baby. She still babbles, but she uses her hands and changes the tones like she is trying to tell you something. Squealing is one of her favorites also. Today she was looking at a magazine and talking to herself. We have met so many people since we have been here, so she has learned to shake hands. When people put their hands out to shake, Kaitlynn is the first to reach out for it. When she is tired she whispers to herself. It is cute, but I feel like we are in the "I see dead people" scene from Sixth Sense. There are lots of hiking trails in our village, so we bought a backpack carrier for her. She likes it much better than her stroller so far. She is still very friendly and all the Germans speak German to her. I would not be surprised if she starts learning some soon. I have been trying to teach her the few words and phrases that I know. When she is 3 we can put her in a German immersion pre school, so we are probably going to do that.
