Come get me!

Look at this face...

This is how Kay greets me after nap. She waits so patiently in her crib always. She never really makes a noise so we don't know she is awake. I don't know if you can tell in the picture, but her hair is standing straight up in the front.

August Videos

Here are some recent videos of Kay...

August activities

Kay has really been enjoying craft time at daycare. She loves showing me what pretty artwork she created that day. I decided to take a picture of some of the best ones before I give them away (some of you might see these as thank you notes someday!)

Busy- is the best way I can describe this summer and Kay. The other day when Grandma was reading Kay a story Craig tried to say it with her. Kay turned to Craig and said "Grandma book". We all had to hold back our laughter. How can someone so little know EXACTLY what they want. She did not want Craig to read it, she wanted Grandma to read it!

One of her favorite lines now is "I did it". She says it anytime she does anything. She is so proud when she puts her shoes on, gets dressed, picks up etc. She likes to do everything herself now. She gets mad when we try to help. This includes many messy trips to the counter as she tries to clear her plate and cup by herself.

Kay will also now give big bear hugs and pat us on the back when doing so (just like we do). It is very sweet.

I think I should knock on something, but we seem to be spending less time in time out these days.

Kay has also learned how to do a summersault. It is so cute to watch. I will try to catch that on video soon.

Picture of Kay playing "doctor" with daddy

We went to our friend's house for dinner last weekend. Kay LOVED and I mean LOVED their dog. She read him stories and would not leave his side. She would giggle so loud every time he gave her "kisses" on her face.

Trying on daddy's socks. They are like tights!

Kay's artwork

Kay likes to ride on her bike. Her legs are almost long enough to try it on her own.

Still loves to "help" in the kitchen!

Happy Birthday Pops (A Little Late...)

Nana wanted us to send pictures for Pop's birthday. We were unsuccessful in getting a "good" family photo, but here are some to show the true personality of a two year old!

Summer Time!

We are enjoying lazy summer days. We have spent a lot of time at the Farmers Market and Pool these days. Kay's bed is shrinking in size as she is getting more and more attached to various items. In her bed now is a pillow, a stuffed bear, a stuffed dog, a small rattle bear, a small blanket with a bear head on it, and two blankets. She has grown enough hair to be able to put in a ponytail a few times. The record is about an hour before she pulls it out. We went to the lake with some friends a few weekends ago. I unfortunately only remembered to take one picture. You can see Kay enjoying a sandwich on the porch. She also loved helping to pick out her life vest at the store. She wore it all the way up to the check out line. She was a little unsure about the lake at first. I think she was not used to the sensation of all of us floating (at the pool Craig and I can always touch the ground). By the last day she was enjoying it for more than a few minutes.
