Big Ol' Blog Update

Ok so it's been almost a month since I've last updated and I'm really mad at myself! Kate turned 9 months old on Monday and it's hitting me that she is almost a year old. Where does the time go?

Kate is growing so fast and getting into everything. It's like the second they learn how to crawl they realize, Hey! There's this whole world I've been missing out on! It's so fun to watch her explore and discover things but it is definitely keeping us on our toes.

I'm loving staying at home with her and I've been going to a stroller exercise class for a few months, we have playdates and mom's night out. It's a very "mom" thing to do... I'm also going up to my old school to read to kids weekly and we are now finally attending a church regularly.

Zac is staying busy with work and perfecting his golf game on his free time.

The whole family is gearing up for Megan's (my sister) wedding in November. I'm so excited and happy for her!


Here's our two babies! Biggio looks thrilled doesn't he? He is so good with her. He lets her literally climb all over him.


One way we've found to contain Kate. Throw her in the laundry basket!

A little photo shoot before Church...

One of Kate's favorite activities, our daily walks.

Kate and her GiGi.

Showing off her crawling skills to Grammy and Binks.

Grammy pulled out a mirror and as you can see Kate is very vain!! She just loves to look at herself in the mirror!

We are still introducing lots of foods to Kate. Here is her first experience with blueberries... Notice that we kind of gave up on bibs and now we just strip her down!

If you look at the next few pictures you will see that I have ventured into the world of cloth diapering! A bunch of the moms in my Stroller Strides group do it and they convinced me that it was a great idea. Now most of my family including Zac looked at me like I was crazy but it's not like we're talking diaper pins and prefolds. As you can see by the pictures, cloth diapers have come a long way and are super easy and fun!

My good friend Susan came down from Abilene to visit again (we're trying to squeeze in a lot of visits before they move to South Dakota next year) and I managed to snap some cute pictures of Kate and David a.k.a Kate's future hubby..

Kate was harassing David while he was trying to hang out in the bouncer. Here they are both looking at the tv.

This looks like Kate is about to lay one on him!!!

Finally got them both to look at the camera. No smiles but hey what can you ask from a 9 month old and a 4 month old?

Hope everyone is doing well! Thanks for stopping by =)
