Playing in the Park

19 months old

We take Katelyn for a walk through our neighborhood every evening. There is a nice little park which is about halfway through our walk which we stop at almost everytime. Actually, we don't really have a choice. If we try to walk by the park and not stop, Katelyn will start to point and yell "PARK" followed by whinning, crying, and trying to get out of the stroller. Needless to say we pretty much always stop to play at the park.

All grown up and "reading" books!

June 30, 2009

18.5 months old

One of Katelyn's favorite things to do is to climb into a chair and read herself some books (Elmo's ABC book is her favorite of course, along with any of her "lift the flap" books).

She looks so grown up when she sits in the chair and flips through the pages. She babbles continuously through the book as if she is really reading the story, it is very cute.

In the next video clip Katelyn repeates some of the words she knows....these are some other words she can also say: apple, up, down, open, bubbles, baby, oatmeal, all done, keys, water, milk, the end, knock knock, rock baby, run, no (she likes that word alot)....

Legos

Katelyn's hair is just about long enough to get into a small pony tail, so here are some pictures of her with her hair up. She didn't mind her hair up, but she didn't like having to sit still for me to get her hair in the pony tail. So I basically had to put it up as she was moving around the room.

Boating Baby

June 13, 2009
18 months old

To celebrate Katie's 18 month birthday we all went out on the boat today. We weren't sure if she would like it at first ...but to our surprise she LOVED it. She wasn't scared at all and loved when Todd would go fast and hit small wakes.

Here is Katelyn walking to the dock with her Daddy

She kept watching Todd to see how he was steering and driving the boat

Katelyn and Mommy

Halfway through our trip we stopped the boat to have a snack

Having so much fun...Katie loves how fast the wind blows on the boat

Posing for the camera

Katelyn's favorite spot on the boat....was right up front

"I've been watching you drive daddy, and I think I am ready to try it myself"

Walking hand in hand with daddy after a fun day on the boat

After a great day of boating katelyn was all tired out and she slept the whole way home

Katelyn had fun playing cars with her cousin Kyle

Aunt Sara and Uncle Kent have an enormous backyard and Katelyn was taking full advantage of all her freedom. She absolutely loved just running all over their backyard!
