Katherine

Katherine is all over the place! She is now standing up on everything. The first day she realized this new ability I think she ended up hurting herself about 10 times. Her balance was lacking and instead of falling nicely on her bottom, she'd face plant or fall straight back. She has the hang of it now and is only hurting herself about 5 times a day :) Her favorite place to stand is on the window. She loves watching Jason do yardwork.


She looks so tiny standing up, it just doesn't look right

The most adorable picture ever

We also had a fun and busy week with visitors. Jason's parents, Laura, Andy, Drew, Brady, Jenny, Susan, Johnson stayed over and SAM,Steve, Rachel, Matthew, and Sarah visited. We had the best time (Jason had been looking forward to it all week!) Family is the most important thing in our life and we always have a good time hanging out together. Jason's mom and I went shopping during the week and she pureed some pears from their own Pear Tree for Kate. Jenny and my Mom were so kind to babysit Saturday while we did a church activity and ate at Cheesecake Factory.

Cousins: Brady and Katherine - Kate's trying to help Brady balance :)

Cousins playing. Kate looks so much bigger because she's about 7 weeks older.

We're already looking forward to everyone visiting again!!!

  1. Okay, I can't believe that Kate is crawling, pulling herself up, and standing! That girl must really want to move because she is so little to be doing all that. You must be loving this stage. It's so fun to watch babies figure everything out. Does she walk when you hold her hands yet?

  2. Emily I LOVE the picture of Kate looking out the window and also the one of her helping her cousin stand. How cute and funny! She's such a little doll.

  3. I do love this stage but I'm in a constant state of panic that she's going to seriously hurt herself. She tries to stand on everything and then stand by herself, so I know she's going to pull something over on herself or faceplant or fall on hardwood/tile floors... I'm a mess :) How's Austin doing? I heard he's just the sweetest baby ever!!!

  4. Emily you should totally visit Wisconsin! It has this city called the Wisconsin Dells and everyone owns cabins out there and goes to these indoor water parks...weird, but cool! LOL Kate is getting so big! I'm sure she's really fast at crawling now...that girl is crazy strong! I can't wait to see what she'll be this year for halloween, you should make her be the HULK, lol.
