Kaitlin's Tricycle

So much fun!

Here's a video showcasing Kaitlin's riding skills! It looks like Brandon has a job to do this summer as she's *much* better at going backward than forward!

Gymnastics Mini Meet

Monday night was Kaitlin's first gymnastics meet. It was a culmination of all that she's learned over the past 10 weeks and she did great!

Here are a couple pictures and videos!

the (uneven?) bar

and my favorite video of the night...

She's our star!

More pictures!

Last Wednesday the weather was beautiful so the girls and I made our last trip to the zoo for the year. We joined our friends Tara and Bronwyn. Kaitlin LOVES her friend Bronwyn and gets super-excited when I tell her that they have a playdate scheduled!





Here at home I took a couple cute pictures of Baby Zoey and Charlie....


Remember the ones I took of Kaitlin and Charlie two years ago?


AND........ a couple more pictures!








AND..... a video! (Kaitlin sings to Zoey again):

Halloween Party @ Preschool

We signed Kaitlin up for a couple parent/tot preschool classes this fall. Today was our first class. It was actually a Halloween party and all the kids were asked to wear their Halloween costumes.

Last night before Kaitlin went to bed, I told her about our plans to go to a Halloween party in the morning. I asked her to remind us about the Halloween party when she woke up. Umm.... funny.... she come into our room at 4:00 AM shouting, "Mommy, Daddy... Halloween Party! Time to eat breakfast!"

(Luckily for us, the class did not start that early!!!)

Here are some pictures from the class:

And.....

(BRANDON said it - not me......)

at least her eye matches her costume.

Black Eye! :-(

This morning we met our good friends the Knutson's and the Jones' for a playdate at Monkey Bizness. Kaitlin was super-excited to be there and was having a TON of fun...........until........... she decided to go down a slide head-first, not waiting for an older girl to move out of the way.

Here's the result:















Poor baby!

The Playground

Kaitlin LOVES the playground... and this time of year is PERFECT! Not too HOT, not too COLD.
Last Saturday afternoon the three of us WALKED to the PARK while Brandon was at work... well, I walked... Kaitlin RODE in the stroller, and Zoey CURLED up tight in the SLING and SNOOZED the whole time.

The Birthday Party

Here are a couple pictures from Kaitlin's birthday party! I wish I could have taken more pictures, but it's really hard to throw a party, chase a toddler, be eight-months pregnant in 100-degree weather and take pictures. (Thankfully, my good friend Tara was able to take some pictures for us!)

Overall, the party was great! The weather cooperated, the food was yummy, and the kids had a lot of fun. I still can't believe my little bean is two years old. ♥

Kaitlin is TWO!

Grab your box of Kleenex and check out the birthday slide show I put together for Kaitlin's birthday.
♥ It's hard to believe it's been TWO years! ♥
