Slide Show...

26 month update.

There were a lot of pictures for this month that I wanted to share so I just made a slide show. Click on it to play the show.

we had a busy month. Katelynn started gymnastics, she LOVES it. Mommy watches with a big ol grin on her face. I'm a proud momma! She gets to do all the things the big girls do, she just needs more help. She listens to teacher tho and does the best she can so we are very pleased.

Tom planned a special day out and we all went up to Olympia. We had lunch at the bbq pit place on the side of the highway, have always heard such great things about it. Glad we tried it but won't go back probably. Then we got to go to Barnes N Nobel, I have been on a crazy reading spree lately. I'm reading about a book every couple of days. Tom thought I would be in heaven and he was right!!!! Katelynn was pretty impressed as well. She found a Thomas the train track and played for hours. I got most of Katelynn's Easter basket there. She's getting alllllll books this year. She has so many toys that she never even plays with and she loves reading so I just got books. I found a frog and toad book and HADDD to buy it for her. I can remember reading frog and toad books with uncle Chris, I loved them. Maybe I can talk my uncle into reading it to Katelynn sometime, may have to bring frog and toad next time we make a trip to Steilacoom. I also found The monster at the end of this book and had to buy that one as well. That one reminds me of Joe Joe's. It amazed me how many books I found that made me think of being little and reading with my loved ones. I hope Katelynn will have the same special memories when she is older.

Katelynn is using more and more words. Still stubborn and will only say what and when she wants to but she's getting better. There have been less tantrums sense she started talking more which makes mommy a happy girl.

I guess that is enough for now.

Ready for lotsa pictures?

Good...momma's been a busy girl :)

Katelynn brought all of her books and all of her animals into her crib to read to them *swoon*


My little Rockstar!

Bath Time!

Saving for her future :)

Now what mom, I'm bored?

One little monkey jumping on the bed!

This is a HORRIBLE picture of me but I caught K giving me one of her famous great big bear hugs that helts your heart in a picture so I just had to post it.

DId you make it through all that? Bless your heart, that why we love you! Hope you enjoyed your Katelynn fix.

Time to catch up.

With the holidays and our insaine weather going on latley I have been sucking it up on updating. We had a wonderful Christmas, very quiet. Katelynn loved all her presents. The little people sets are a hugeeeee hit. She even packs a bucket full of little people up at night and takes it to bed. *swoon* So cute! She also got alot of Dora stuff, all equally loved. Mommy was most exicited with all the cute new clothes she got! Great Grandma gave her a new doll with a bottle and bib and outfits, she carrys it everywhere now. Her dolly gets feed it's bottle alot. She's going to be a great big sister!

We had a birthday/late Christmas party up in Steilacoom my grandma's. It was VERY nice. So wonderful being around family we don't get to see very often. I meet my couzins new baby...well he's one and a half now so I guess he's not so new :( WHy do they grow so fast? Anywho, it was our first time meeting him. Grady and Katelynn got along very well. It was cute watching them play. Hope they can get together more often.

We have decied to take a trip to Vegas in June. Our friends are getting married and we think thats a great excuse for a second trip to Vegas. Our last trip I spent the whole time worrying about Katelynn/our wedding and by the time I got around to relaxing it was time to go. This time we just get to kick back and have fun. Were going for a couple extra days also. It's alot cheaper right now. I'm exicited. It will break up the long wait till October for us to start trying for baby number 2.

Thats about all I can think of for now. I am going to try and update more often. But I'm also trying to lose 60lbs by June so we shall see how both go lol.

PICS!

Day one pics.

This is Katelynn's xmas tree. I put all of her ornaments on it, I will keep putting it up each year and add ornaments each year. This year she will get Dora ornaments lol.


ahhhhh pooey. The rest didn't get uploaded like I thought so I guess this is it for today :(

I could just kiss santa this year!!!!!

I am sooooooooooooooooo exicited!!!! Santa will be bringing me my canon rebel I have been dreaming about for months in about 3-4 days!!!!!!I have the greatest husband :) Although he got a ps3 outta the deal and we both got a flat screen tv for the bedroom. He found a deal online for a ps3 and a flatscreen tv together for a great price, but sense he got his ps3 I get my camera!!!!!! I am BEYOND thrilled. I wanted this camera sooooo soooooo sooooo bad!


ANywho, our baby girl has been exploding with words latley. She has learned quite alot from Dora. She now says map, broke, and a form of backpack lol. She also does the sign for more and milk perfectly and when she actully wants more or milk. We are going to keep up with the sign launguage. It's wonderful to hear her express herself.

So I am going to challenge myself to post one pic a day. I took todays with my camcorder actully as my camera was in the car and my new camera isn't here yet. They didn't turn out so bad tho.
I will start a new post with day #1 pictures.
