CRAWL!

Its official, as of June 11, 2012 Katelynn can crawl! She is almost exactly 7 and 1/2 months old! She is loving her new found freedom to go where she chooses! She loves to follow Cassidy around, trying to eat her snacks and drink her drinks! She also loves to find the dogs water bowl and dump all the water out onto herself and the floor!



The weather is sort of finally/slowly getting warm. It has been somewhat in the 70s and occassionally but still rarely in the 80s. EVERY day it is somewhat outside that is where you will find us!

The month of May!

Time to catch up! The last month as flown by. Here is what we were up to in May.
My parents sent the girls a little piano. They love it!


Katelynn learned she can stand if she is leaning back on a couch. What a big girl!

Katelynn started day care three days a week in the mornings. At first she wasnt so sure. But now she seems to love it and loves Fiona her teacher!
See all better!
Cass is growing up so fast. She is so cute!
We discovered we can take pictures while seeing ourselves. Now Cassidy loves to make funny faces to my phone!

Cassidy took swim lessons on her own and is learning a lot! We are very proud of her.

We learned the laundry basket is an awesome place to play!

It was nice weather for like 2 weeks, it is gone now for the record :( Anyway so during that nice weather we spent all of our time outside.
Look how cute those little shorts are!

Cass also discovered her intense love of princesses. EVERYDAY we get home from school she goes in her room, takes off her pants and puts a princess skirt on for the rest of the evening! She also told me that she would like to wear either a skirt or a dress everyday as she is a princess and princesses dont wear pants!
Katelynn standing again.


We went fishing twice. Once for bass on the river and once for trout in a pond. We caught fish both times and Cass seems to love it! I caught a 23 inch trout! It was awesome, I was very proud of myself.
Daddy and Cass fishing!
Katelynn loves to eat. I mean loves it. She now likes to eat a 1 veggie and 1 fruit each day. She always eats the whole bowl. :)
We went to California at the end of May. The girls loved staying at Grandma and Grandpa's house.
On Saturday we went to Donovan's third birthday party! Cass loved helping him celebrate. They love eachother so much. It is cute.
Katelynn hung out with Hazel. They were very cute together and they are only 1 month apart! They are going to be such good friends,
Cass got a new swim suit. We spent tons of time in the pool.
We went to the fair and Cass and Donovan had so much fun on all of the rides.


Then on Sunday we threw a surprise 60th birthday party for my mom! She was VERY surprised. It was a great time. We all missed Aaron so much though. Happy Birthday mom! You dont look a day over 39!!! LOVE YOU!

The rest of the time we just hung out by the pool. It was nice weather and we loved getting to relax! Cant wait to go back! It was a fun hectic month.

Happy Anniversary to US

May 10th was our 4th wedding anniversary. 4 years ago we celebrated our love and made a lifelong committment. We are just as committed to the vows we made now as we were on that day, only now we have 2 beautiful daughters as well.

4 pictures of our wedding and now here are 4 things I love about Aaron. I always say the important ones like being loyal, hard working etc so this time I am going to list 4 silly small things I love.

1) He gives awesome back massages. Well and foot massages. His hands are so soft and big so it almost like you get a double massage in the time it takes me to give 1/2 of one and I complain the whole time.

2) He trusts my opinion in fantasy football, after all I read a lot about it. :)

3) He loves Harry Potter. I mean that is awesome!!

4) He like to lick the bowl of the desserts I make, like the big spoon from the brownie batter. Just like when we were kids. He keeps us young and fun!

6 Months

Katelynn is now 6 months old. We had her 6 month appointment and she is growing great and is healthy! She is in the 70th percentile for height, the 50th percentile for weight and the 90th percentile for head size. :)

At 6 months she:

Can sit up and play with all her toys
Can roll over from her tummy to back and almost from her back to tummy
Loves to be held and is still a mommy's girl
Just started day care Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday in the mornings and loves to play with new friends
Loves to take baths with Cassidy
Just started eating a little bit of baby food. No favorites as she is somewhat disgusted by everything still
Nurses like a champ and will take one bottle of my milk at school on the three mornings she goes.
Is a good sleeper
Loves to stand with help
LOVES her sister. Katelynn just watches Cass and laughs at everything she does.
