Bay Time

After a long TAKS week for Mommy and Daddy...they had a party for the faculty at our house. I had lots of fun and got to play with my friends Wyatt and Lily. But, Mommy was so busy unwinding that she didn't get a chance to take pictures. Bum Lady! But, to unwind from the post-TAKS party, we headed down to Mimi and Gaga's bay house. I was a wonderful baby (as usual) and we had no choice but to relax and enjoy the beautiful weekend.

Here I am in my walker...I wish you could see my "bay hair" a little better. With all of the humidity and wind it was sticking straight up! It was funny!


Mommy and Daddy were in such a hurry to get out of town that we left without A LOT of stuff...my bed (big one), my medicine (what?!?!), and my bibs! When eating carrots a bib is a MUST. So, Mimi improvised and gave me this towel bandana type device. It worked! Thanks Mom! (I am learning sarcasm early)

Yep, the jumper made the trip. Forget the bed...don't forget the jumper!

From Ear to Eternity!

Well, Kaitlyn's ear woes continue! She started running a fever Saturday afternoon...and she was a super grouch all weekend! We knew that she must not feel good because she is such a joy to be around most days. She refused to be put down and wanted to cuddle and sleep all weekend. Then I saw the dreaded fluid running out of her ear and knew that she should probably see the dr. today. As was expected, her eardrum has burst and she is now on the healing end of it all. At least the pressure is subsided and her pain is extremely reduced. And, we are now back on antibiotics and drops. The fever is gone and she is smiling again! Hopefully it all heals up and we will be back in business by the end of the week. Like TAKS week for a reading and special ed teacher in middle school isn't hard enough?!?! Can anyone say "ear tubes"?

Mr. Handsome...WHAT?!?!?

Maybe it is the fact that it is Friday the 13th...or maybe this woman was just crazy...or BLIND...whatever it was it made my Mommy feel kind of confused. Maybe you can help...let us know what you think.

Here's the story...We stopped by Lowe's on our way home today and were checking out when we were approached by a manager. She was talking to me (Katie) when all of a sudden she called me Mr. Handsome! She then said that I must know my name...because I smiled when she called me Mr. Handsome...what!!! I was laughing at her craziness! Oh man, I am just a little hot under the PINK collar! Please see a picture of the exact outfit I was wearing at the scene of the crime. Yep, it is a prodominantly PINK shirt, with a BOW on the collar! Not to mention my "pretty girl" face! What do you think?

7 MONTHS!

I am 7 months old! Not much has changed since last month. I eat a few more veggies now, I am trying so hard to crawl (I scootch and rock on my knees), I am trying to get these teeth to come in and I am just more wonderful every day!

Today was picture day at school, so I got to wear this pretty blue dress. Mommy had to take her own picture...we will post some of the professional ones as soon as we get them! Ms. Maria said that I smiled real pretty!

At Home Too!

The Easter Bunny also visited my home! Mommy has been helping his hair to grow for about a week...if only my hair grew this fast!

Thank you to all who helped to make my 1st Easter so much fun! Especially Nana, Mimi, Gaga, Big, Tiny, Diva and Gringo! I love you all!


Big and Tiny helped the Easter Bunny by leaving us this beautiful Easter Lilly.

Mimi and Gaga gave me this cool bucket full of all kinds of fun stuff!

Bet you can't guess who gave me this bunny and fun stuff!!! You guessed it...Diva and Gringo! Mommy and Daddy's diets are in serious danger!

Easter Wardrobe!

This is my pretty Easter dress that Diva and Gringo bought for me. I was such a poser this morning!





I then wore my 1st Easter shirt and jeans for the long car ride home. The bunny on this shirt is SOOO soft!

The Easter Bunny Came!

When I woke up this morning I discovered that the Easter Bunny had come to the hotel in Corpus! What a smart bunny! I got some serious loot!



My Aunt Misty helped me find an egg! I have the eye for this game for sure!
