Kailyn Jade Baldwin, 19 ½ months of Leonardtown, MD and Maine, became an angel on Saturday, April 17, 2010 at Children's Hospital in Washington, DC.

Kailyn was born September 5, 2008 at CMMC in Lewiston, ME, the beloved daughter of Brad and Casey (Black) Baldwin.

Kailyn was the beautiful redhead with big blue eyes and a radiant smile. She loved climbing into the recliner to snuggle with her Momma. She was an amazing big sister to Izabella giving her hugs and kisses and rubbing her head. When Bella would cry in the truck, Kailyn would shoosh her and rock her car seat to calm her down. Kailyn loved to work on cars with her daddy and Uncle Chris. She would put bolts into holes and find random parts to poke with a screwdriver because they "needed" to be poked. She was curious and fearless, exploring everything and everyplace she could get. She loved water from the bathtub to mud puddles, to the smallest pool of water on the porch, it was hers to play in. Kailyn loved to help Momma with everything. She would help with the dishes especially with the bubbles because they "needed" to be played with. She helped with laundry standing on a stool to hand dirty laundry to Momma and when it was done she would pull the clothes out of the dryer so she could climb in and blow her nose on the dryer sheet. Her favorite shows were Dragontales, Clifford and the Backyardigans. She loved to dance and spin in circles until she fell down laughing. She also said "hi" even if she had just seen you two minutes before. When she left, she was quick to say goodbye. Kailyn had just learned to share from her new BFF Jenna. She loved spending time with her cousins in Maine. No matter where Kailyn was or what she was doing, she lit up the room and made everyone smile. She was loved by everyone she touched. Mommy and Daddy love you baby girl and we will see you when we get there.
