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.

6 month old check-up

Crazy, busy week for Lady Katherine. She had her 6-month check-up on Wednesday. All is well and so far we haven't had any real fall-out from the vaccinations she got. But here's the important stuff:

Length: 27 inches (95th percentile)
Weight: 17lb 9.2 oz (80th percentile)
Head circumference: 43cm (70th percentile)

No puppy picture today. But here's one of the turtle that was on our porch a couple months ago.

This past weekend was our work's "Holiday Extravaganza." Other than the free hot dogs (of which there are no pictures) the only real thing worth anything was that Santa Claus was there. So...we present to you:

wait for it

Katherine with Santa Claus.

Sorry to all our non-Christian friends. There was no Chanukah Claus or Kwanzaa Claus.

Out taking pictures

So today we decided to pack up and go take a picture for the Christmas cards. Here's our little adventure, documented for you all to see. Hopefully within the next few weeks you'll all receive a pretty little card and think, "Hey, this looks vaguely familiar. Yet somehow...different..."


Here's dad getting Katherine ready for her photo shoot. Only 6 months old and already a diva, demanding hands on attention.



Someone is obviously thrilled to be here. Smiles were hard to come by, but they eventually showed up.


GET OUT OF MY PARK!


Almost a smile. Not quite there, but close.


Dad's two favorite girls getting ready to leave.

Here's what not to do

I'm really just posting this to get in trouble. This was a few days ago, both Mom and Baby are pooped out. And Dad was left alone with the camera. Mwahahaha!

New Pictures!

OK. We have a few pictures for an update. The first one is right before Clemson went and destroyed Florida State. Our little girl shows her true colors in her Baby Tiger onesie. Now if I can just keep her mother from buying that Gator stuff for her we'll all be OK.









Aaah! Random puppy picture! Yay Checkers!










These last two were taken today. Katherine is finally to the point where she can hold her head steady enough to be turned around in the front carry pack. We think she likes facing this way a whole lot better than the other, although she did tend to sleep better when facing Mommy. The last one really shows how big she's starting to get. She was in the doctor's office the other day (diarrhea, yay!) and weighed in at 15lb, 9oz. She didn't have her length measured, but as you can see from the long view, she's getting pretty tall, too!
