How Exciting

Sometimes Katie is so cute, I don't know what to do with myself. We had her playing in this pool in a couple inches of water and she just LOVED it. It's so funny to watch her get so excited over her duck floating by or her ball. She gets a huge smile, reaches her arms out and starts to shake. It cracks me up!

Bath Time

Katie loves being in the water, whether it's a bath or a swimming pool. She had meat baby food for the first time last night, and she did not seem to like it. Then, she kept spitting up, 5 or 6 times in the next two hours. Needless to say, it was time for a bath! Who wants to go to bed smelling like turkey vomit? 

Sports Fan

Who said boys don't like to play dress up? Steve has turned Katie into his little sports fan doll!
Suprisingly, she didn't seem to mind the scarf on her head, probably because she was too concentrated on getting the beads in her mouth.

New Toy

 

Cool Chick

Katie's favorite place and she's almost too big for it! She hardly ever lays back anymore, unless she's asleep. She's getting so big! 

I love to Jump!

Katie LOVES to jump in her jumparoo. She goes nuts in it and it is so fun to watch!

I'm 1/2 a year old!

Katie is 6 months old today. She can sit up really well, she doesn't have any teeth yet, and she says babababa.... She loves her new toys that she can play with sitting up! I can't believe how fast 1/2 the year has gone, and I can't imagine all the new things she'll be doing in next 6 months, but we are looking forward to every minute.

Yummy Time

Katie loves eating her first baby foods in her high chair. Her current favorite is applesauce.

Getting Ready

Katie (and Steve) are ready for football season!

Matt and Katie

Katie, don't be so worried, he may look very scary, but he's harmless!

Peace

Isn't she the cutest? She loves hanging on to her little stuffed animals. Her favorites are her dollie, her purple unicorn and the one here - her bunny blanket.

Miller Time

No, I did not set this up! Baby katie reached out for Pam's Miller lite and wanted to hold it and lick it. It was really hot that day and I think she liked how cold the bottle was. She did not want me to take it away from her! She just hung on! It made for a pretty funny photo op!

Pool Time

Katie, Steve and I hung out at the Ashby's house on memorial day. Katie went in the pool for the first time. It was a little to cold for her, she tolerated it for about 5 minutes before she started crying.

My Swing

Here's Katie, hanging out in her favorite spot-the swing! 

My Grandpa!

 

mommy update

HI! I have been having many troubles with this blog, seems always like one thing after another! First, steve spills water on the computer, then the blog refuses to work correctly (actually that problem is ongoing) then I drop my camera and destroy the LCD screen, and now I have broken my right hand (yes, I am right handed) So please bear with me, keep checking the blog, I promise to put new pictures up, even if it is not as frequent as I would like for the time being.

My First Wedding Shower

Katie dressed up and came with me to our friend Kristen's wedding shower. She wore her very first piece of jewlery-a beaded braclet I got her at a craft show.

Daddy's new recliner

 

I'm so big!

 

My Friend Ceiling Fan

Baby Katie LOVES ceiling fans. She cracks up whenever she notices one. Here she is laughing at the dining room ceiling fan.
