How is my baby 3?

Kathryn has had quite the birthday. It was spread over 2 weeks starting with her "friend party" on October 6. She has the cutest little bunch of friends!

Kathryn was getting all of her friends to drive her around in the car.



The bounce house was a hit!





I love this pic! The girls were waiting for cupcakes.





Kathryn loved everybody singing 'Happy Birthday' to her. Last night she got us to add a candle to her cupcake and sing 'Happy Birthday to you.'



Enjoying the cupcakes. I think only 1 or 2 of them actually ate the cake part. Most of them just licked the icing off!



This one is worth posting again! This is Kathryn after all her little friends left. She took full advantage of it being her birthday party day and Mommy let her get by with just about anything.



This is the way I set-up the table on Kathryn's actual birthday. It was priceless watching her come in to see the table when she got up that morning. She started dancing around and acting a little crazy!



Showing off her "baby sleeping beauty." You better not get the princess name wrong or you won't ever stop hearing about it (seriously!). Just remember I warned you.



After eating breakfast and watching some of her new 'Max and Ruby' DDD (Kathryn's version of DVD) we headed to the zoo with Daddy. Don't you love the sunglasses? And, of course, we had to bring baby Sleeping Beauty. And, of course, we had to dress like a Princess. This picture is SO Kathryn!



We never do the things at the zoo that cost money so today we rode the carousel and the train. Kathryn would wave and blow kisses each time she went around.



Kathryn thought this was hilarious! She told me she wanted to be a giraffe for Halloween.



After naptime we went over to our neighbors house and played outside. They have an awesome backyard with a huge swing set and a trampoline. While we played Daddy went and picked up California Pizza Kitchen. Kathryn loves all pizza but really loves pizza from there.

Kathryn had a wonderful day and we had fun spending the day as a family. I adore my little baby, I can't believe she's getting so big. Happy Birthday, Kathryn Grace!

I heart my [dog] baby

My little Spencer is quite sick and right now is 4 hours in to a 6 hour blood transfusion. I am devastated that I was told this morning that he might not make it and that even with the blood transfusion his body may not be able to keep up his red blood count. I looked through my pics and thought I'd post some of my Spencie. I love this dog and I pray that I will be granted more time with him and if I'm not I thank God that I had him as mine for these 10 1/2 years.

Waiting on Kathryn to finish playing on the playground.



Waiting on mommy to get out of the shower. He follows me every step I take around the house. How cute is he??



Sleeping in a "safe corner."



It's difficult to see what is going on in this pic since all you can see is Spencer's beard. Sugar had the nerve to get in Spencer's "house" so Spencer decided to squeeze in with him.



Taking a nap in the office with Daddy.



This is what he also does when he gets in the car and Kathryn's not in the carseat. He's been doing this for at least 2 years.

Birthday Party

The sign of a good party. . . . . . .



I'll post more pics soon!
