Standing!

So today Katie started standing!! Yay! and OH NO!

This will certainly make things more interesting!

I've been meaning to post for a while, but my iPad app is broken.  Get prepared for a lot of random pics & videos!  (P.S.  I finished this post once & then lost it all... I'm starting to think I'm being tested.)

First, some pictures from an Auntie (& Uncle) filled couple weeks!

Aunt Kas, Aunt Mary Lou & Uncle Kenny came to visit.

We started by going to breakfast at Craker Barrel, where Katie tried out the mini rocking chairs and stole the hearts of all the other people waiting on the porch.

Then, we went over to Cowtown, where Daddy put Katie in the Ergo - so cute!

Katie got her first professional haircut (you can even see her using her first cell phone during the cut!)

We went to the little gym, where Katie had a lot of fun

All and all, we had a good weekend.

The next weekend, Katie went to Aunt Kammie & Uncle Brian's house.  She had fun playing with their dogs & wanted to know how Dawkin's tail would taste.

The dogs were very well behaved with Katie

At home, Katie has been getting faster & faster with her crawling.  She's also started finding her reflection in a variety of things, like the stove.  Usually, she starts laughing whenever she sees it.

Also, Daddy took Katie for her first fishing trip on Thanksgiving weekend.  We had beautiful weather, but no fish decided to bite.  It was an enjoyable trip anyway.

Well, that's about it for now.  Hope you enjoyed it!

Hello from Katie (or... Blaaaah!)

Katie turned 7 months old on Monday, so we have some new pictures to share and while we're sharing, we thought we'd throw in a couple videos :)

Katie was a little sick this weekend, but she's gotten better. That's good because Aunt Kas, Aunt Mary Lou & Uncle Kenny are all coming to visit! That should mean lots of pictures!

On Tuesday, Katie & I went into the city where Katie had her first job! A friend of mine works at a company that was studying baby products & they needed a baby under 1 year old to come demonstrate the products. Katie made more than Aaron & I on Tuesday!

After Katie's work, we went for a walk in the city & took some pictures on University of Penn's campus.
















Then, when we got home a little later, we decided to take some pictures that reminded us of Fall. It was hard to keep Katie from eating the leaves!









Katie had been crawling up a storm & we thought you might like to see it

Last, but certainly not least, a hello from Katie... Or blaaaahhh

Katie's crawling!

Here she goes! Time to batten down the hatches!!

Happy Halloween!

For Katie's first Halloween, she sat on our lawn with me & helped hand out candy. She seemed to enjoy seeing all the people dressed up!

Seeing the videos

Just so you know, if you got an email & can't see the videos, click on the title of the blog "Katie's World" and it will take you to the actual blog so you can see the videos...

Some new videos

We haven't gotten around to taking the professional pictures yet, because I'm still working on making her Halloween costume.  Soon though!

In the mean time, I got a new iPod touch so I can take more videos to share with you, so here's the first couple.

Katie loves the song "Barefoot, Bluejean Night"  You can see her smiling as the song plays (we're not doing anything to make her smile, just playing the music.)

She just moved up to a little big girl tub & she loves being able to splash around in the tub.

We went to Starbucks & found out that Katie might have a future in advertising :-)

Happy 6 Months to Katie!

We got some good pictures today at home & on Tuesday we're going back to JC Penny for more professional pictures!  Here's some of the ones we took today.



Katie's discovered raspberries & they are her favorite word right now :)

And here's a couple video clips from a normal day with Katie.  You can see she's sitting up really well.  She's started to sleep with her bottom in the air like you see in the first clip & later you'll see that toes are delicious!
