Busy Girl

Katie is a very busy girl these days! She prefers to be standing the majority of the time, preferably at a window. She will stand there forever and loves watching the dogs play outside. She can't wait until she can walk so she can go outside and play with them too!
She often "blocks" the dogs when they try to come in the doggie door. They're not sure what to do when she does that. She is fascinated with it but hasn't quite gotten the nerve to try to go through it yet!
 She has also become quite a little climber. She likes to climb the baby gate that keeps her from climbing the stairs! She is quite proud of herself when she does this as you can see.....
Another "task" Katie likes to do now is to empty things and make big messes! She saw me put the mail in the recycle bin and decided to sneak off and empty it while I wasn't looking!
 The final funny thing that we have to show you is how she's discovered to use her walker. She has turned it into a "crawler." She gets a good grip on it from underneath and pushes it all around. She's not walking yet, but she sure is smart!
Here are some final shots of Katie on her 1st Valentines Day. Mom got her and Dad an ice cream cake and they loved it!

10 Months!

Today Katie is 10 months old and we can't believe how fast time has flown by.  She is turning into such an amazing Little Girl with a perfect personality!  Here are some great recent shots of Katie....
Here we captured her first experience "tasting" ice cream.  Her Father couldn't stand it and had to share his favorite food with her.
 She's looking at him gratefully for the taste....
She's ALMOST sure she likes it.
She loves it!!!
Her most favorite thing to do is to crawl around with one object in each hand. She "marches" with these objects and bangs them on the ground as she goes. Here she is with her most favorite marching toys - her plastic stacking rings.
These final shots are of her helping with the most recent project at the Peters Household - Painting the master bedroom. Here she is with all her supplies....
Katie and her Father spent a great deal of time dancing to the music we had playing throughout the painting process...
 Despite all the dancing we finally finished painting the master!  Although the fun never ends - the next task will be painting the master bathroom. We can't wait (ha ha)!
