She doesn't look like it but I promise she was very happy in all of these pictures!

Kathryn "helped" me add potting soil to the pot on the front porch this morning. She used her beach scoop and bucket. She was so messy somehow Sugar got soil on his back and side!


We went to Gymboree then went to meet my friend Whitney for lunch. Kathryn was really good. She tried to feed Whitney, played with the salt and pepper, used a knife to cut her cereal bar, and at one point slid under the table and sat there for a minute. What a silly baby!

We were on our morning walk on Wednesday and church bells started ringing. Kathryn started doing her dance where she puts her arms in the air and twists her hands around. She does it whenever she hears music!

Yesterday the guy that is replacing the rotten wood on our house (he actually is our neighbor across the alley) told us that our house needs to be repainted. We are already replacing the rotten wood and adding gutters to prevent any more rotten wood. We have been fortunate, in the three years we've lived her we haven't had any really big expenses. We do really love this house and we want to take care of it. Now if we can just find the right color. . . . If anyone has any cute color combo ideas let me know.

Kathryn has been so precious (even more so!) the last few days. Yesterday we had the best day together. I got my haircut and was nervous about taking her but she was perfect! Half the time she just wanted to be held and snuggled up on me. I think she was slightly nervous. When we got home we played in the sprinkler and her friends, Ruby and Riley, came over and joined us for a little while. Kathryn got the small bag that holds her diapers and tried to fill it up with water. After that she got the whole diaper bag and started carrying it to the sprinkler before I intercepted that disaster! When talking about our day it doesn't sound that fun but it was the best day we've had in a while with Kathryn and that's saying a lot!!

Spencer modeling his new muzzle and Kathryn taking advantage of the situation! He hates it and she loves it!

My new shoes. Aren't they cute??
