So Proud!

The other day I drew a picture with crayons & stickers - Mommy let me put it & some photos on the fridge with magnets. Mommy laughed when she saw how straight & organized I had placed everything - all on my own!

A Fun Surprise for Mommy!

The other night, Daddy insisted that Mommy have a girls' night out with her friends, Michelle & Daree. He even arranged a babysitter (Kate's first time with one)! They were told to go to Dave & Busters - one of Mommy & Daddy's favorite places. When the girls got there, the waitress showed them to their table where Daddy & the other 2 husbands, Jake & Jonathan, were sitting - they had decorated the table "Hawaiian Style" complete with a minature palm tree, hats, fun straws & matching Leis for each couple. Mommy & her friends were so surprised & they all had a great time! It was a surprise birthday dinner for Mommy & Daree, even though Mommy's is a few weeks away. And Kate did great with the babysitter!

Michael's Prayer

Yesterday I had such a great day - some of the highlights were getting to sit on Papa George's tractor, walking around on his flat bed trailer & throwing rocks! At bedtime last night I said such a sweet prayer completely unprompted by Mommy or Mommom -

Dear God,

Thank you for Papa George,

Thank you for rocks,

Thank you for the tractor,

Thank you for the trailer,

Thank you for Mommom,

Thank you for Mommy,

Thank you for Kate,

Thank you for Daddy,

in Jesus' Name - Amen!

Sweet Moments

This week we have noticed a lot of fun changes with Kate! She is holding her head up for longer periods of time. She is also giving us a few small smiles every once in a while. We can't wait until she begins to smile really big! She is also awake & alert more often & we love her sweet little coo's & baby sounds.
