Cousins

My cousin Cari lives in Springdale (15 minutes away), and I can't tell you how much fun we've had. She had her baby boy--Griffin Brock the same day we had Kate...so it has been a blast watching them grow and develop together. Being able to talk with her about what's "normal" and different ideas to try when things are rough has helped me keep my head on. We snapped these cute picsof Baby Kate and Baby Grif last week when they were here. We're guessing they might hate us later for taking these, but oh how cute! The days when dimples and rolls are sweet!

Working Out at the Gym

The activity gym that is...Kate loves it! She is constantly ripping the poor dangling animals from their hanging spots. It's hilarious when she gets really excited--she starts flapping her arms like a bird.

Rice Cereal

Kate tried rice cereal for the first time on January 19th...we were at the Pediatrician on the 17th and were given the go-ahead after I explained we are STILL NOT SLEEPING THROUGH THE NIGHT! haha Well, as you can see, her first bite was not her favorite, but she quickly learned to love it--she's a big-eater like her mama. She was trying to do it herself already, grabbing the spoon and trying to manuever it into her mouth. I think the sticky goop made it anywhere and everywhere BUT her mouth. :) The only problem is she's STILL NOT SLEEPING THROUGH THE NIGHT! I think I'm loosing my mind.:)

Growing Like a Weed!
