It's amazing to me how much harder it becomes to keep up with a little one when they are walking...Kate took her first steps when we were in Alaska in July. And now...she's practically running! It's a full-time job keeping up with her, and I'm thinking there's no need for aerobic exercise outside of her these days!
There's lots to update on...not 0nly is she walking but also talking up a storm. She's says mommy, daddy, baby, hi, bye (though at times it's still "dye"), turtle, puppy, nana (banana), biba (bible), thank you, Datel (Rachel), Papa, Nannie, Mow (for cat), and she's now able to tell you where her nose is!
We were very lucky to have so much of our family here for her birthday. She's definitely all girl---got tons of of clothes and shoes! It was a lot of fun watching her eat her special "Cupcake" Cake that her Gram made her. She didn't seem as big a fan of icecream--too cold or something.
Anyway, we had a great time celebrating her birth and it truly doesn't feel like it's been a year! What a blessing she is to Jared and I...
