Great Grandmas!

So, we were up in Erie and Kittanning this past weekend. We visited great-grandparents. And here's the proof.


Katherine and Becky's Grandma


Katherine and Jason's Nana.

Peace out, yo.

Happy Birthday, America!

So yesterday at Katherine's daycare they had a parade for the Fourth of July. Most of the older kids worked on projects all week to use. The teachers made each of the kids in the infant room a hat. This was Katherine's.

Happy Fourth of July, everyone. Drink beer, eat hotdogs, blow things up. It's the American Way.

I HAS A BUCKET!

DO NOT TELL THE LOLRUS I HAS A BUCKET!!
Lemme get mai bucket. Is over heer.


And what do we do with the bucket now that we have it? Why, this, of course!


And this is how we play.

Her newest game, other than "Put teh Bucket on Mah Head" is called "Put Random Toys in My Bucket, Walk a Few Steps, Sit Down, Take the Toys Out of My Bucket, Spin Around On My Bum and Repeat." This is an extremely long name for a game so we've asked Katherine to come up with a shorter name or some kind of acronym. The only other names she can come up with are "A gee gee ju gee" and "diggy" which is actually her way of saying "doggy." She has not been helpful.

Happy Memorial Day (and birthday)

It seems as though I had started a birthday post about a month ago (this is actually getting published on 6/30). And it also seems as though I've forgotten about it. Anyway, here's some cake pictures.

No, really. We meant it.

When we said there was no where she couldn't go, we really meant it. Really.



I guess there's only one thing left to do. Wedge her somewhere she can't get out...like her toy bin. Truthfully, she did this to herself. Really. Daddy just made sure he went and got the camera before getting her out.

There's nowhere she can't go

Well. Big advances since the last update (forever ago). It seems we've starting doing more. As you can see, there's no where she can't go.

We've got this new walking toy. Technically she's supposed to ride it, but she enjoys this much much more.


(Hey look! A movie!)


And this was quickly followed by some window looking. And they both say, "Gee, I wonder when Daddy's getting home."

Easter Pictures

I can't believe she is already almost 10 months old! She still has only the 2 bottom middle teeth, but is definitely working on more. She is crawling everywhere and can stand up holding on to things. She started cruising a bit this past weekend (walking holding on to things), so walking should be coming soon! Unfortunately, she does have a nasty cough right now (thanks to me!) but other than that, she is a perfectly happy baby!

Here are some pictures we took of Katherine on Easter Sunday for you to enjoy.

Teeth! The sequel

Two things. First, photographic evidence has been made of the oral invaders. This isn't just some fuzzy shot of some dummy in an ape suit walking through the woods or a blurry log in a lake in Scotland. This is the real deal, people.

SO here you have a laughing Katherine, with a face full of chicken and sweet potatoes and a couple teeth sticking through the bottom. Huzzah! Teeth. I am only mildly disappointed they didn't declare war on the rest of her mouth like Stewie's teeth in Family Guy, but that's OK. A major milestone has come to pass.


Click the picture, it gets bigger...much bigger.

Second thing. A few people have asked - if that was a quiet dinner, what's a normal one sound like? So I present to you Katherine with a biter biscuit. No fancy editing or slick witticisms with this one. Sorry.

Teeth!

OK. A major recon mission is required. But there are two teeth poking through the bottom gums. Right in front! Maybe later tonite we'll have photographic evidence of the intruders. Until then, watch this:

It's been a while...

..Time for an update.

And really there isn't much to update.

Christmas has come and gone.


Grandparents have visited and left


We did go to the zoo!

But now we're pretty much tuckered out and ready for a nap


Oh, and still no teeth.
