New Pics! Katie is getting bigger- she has now hit the 20 lb mark, so we turned her car seat around! Big deal...considering most kids her age were turned around almost 3 months ago! She now knows where her ears, mouth, nose, eyes, bellly button, hair, and knees are-we are working on more, and it usually only takes a day or two to get a new part since she is super smart! We are also trying to learn what sounds animals make, but right now everything "roars"....lions, bears, birds, pigs....everything except dogs, and she has a different sound for them. Favorite foods right now are: chicken nuggets, pears, carrots, american cheese slices, meatballs, peanut butter and jelly sandwhiches, and fudge stripe cookies. She pretty much has chicken nuggets everyday for lunch....I offer other foods most days, but if she doesn't eat whatever I gave her, I usually give her some nuggets because I know she will eat them! New activities: climbing on all of the chairs (including the office chairs so she can hit the computer buttons), running back and forth in her crib, pushing the high chair all over the kitchen, and riding in the cozy coupe! Just a little update-hope everyone is doing well!
I tend to talk all about Katie on our blog, but a little side note about me- I just made my sister Rachael some curtains! I am pretty proud of myself-they look good and she loves them-it was my first attempt with sewing to make anything big like this, and they turned out well, so who knows what I will try next! I will put some pictures up when we get them hung up!

Monkey Bars!

Ok.....this video is so funny-we went to the park the other day to play, and Jason held Katie up to the monkey bars to see what she would do, and she grabbed on and wouldn't let go! It obviously made me a little nervous, but Jason was practically holding onto her. What a little monkey!

Tonight we had some pancakes..which Katie has tried before, but she likes the syrup, and that always ends up making a HUGE mess since she loves to put it in her hair and everywhere else! So, I tried making her little pancakes with the syrup already in them-I mixed the syrup and melted butter in with the batter and then cooked them-it was a great success! All the taste without the mess! Well, almost-she did still put some pancake in her hair!
