Eight Months Old!

Eight months and moving forward...

" That was funny mom..."

Katelyn in February

I've taken a few pictures of Katelyn since my camera has been returned to me. They're just of our little girl, as we aren't just that cute to be photographed. :)
"I'm big enough to play piano standing up now". She likes to make noise. :)

One of James' gifts to me for Valentine's, was this little budgie. We call him Sprite, and he is a friendly and cheerful bird. Reminds me of when Andrew's budgie, "Blue" was alive. Thankfully we just got this cage, after Sprite flew around homeless for a week, making a mess everywhere...sigh....now he's contained and I like him. Love the sinner, hate the sin. :)

Play time.

Today was the start of "playpen training"...for the first two "sessions", we had a lot of tears, and madness...but I believe we're making progress and she is starting to play happily in her confined quarters. :) Sometimes early motherhood moments are just plain endurance, as every mom knows - I'll probably learn more than Katelyn. :) God knows what to give us. And we're sure blessed by our little girl. :) Especially during happy and good times.

We're back!!!

...and we're busier than ever!

Just a quick clip of Katelyn moving around. :) Praise the Lord my camera was found, and now back in my happy hands! More photos to come...

Family Day!

It's been a while since I wrote anything on here, mainly because I lost my camera in Toronto... so without pictures, I don't usually do a lot on the blog. I do hope to get my camera back, thinking I know where it might be located...but until then, writing will have to do. If you think of it, you can pray that it will be found. I'm missing some of Katelyn's precious moments... :)

But it's Family Day, the day I can officially blog about our new little one that will be (Lord-willing) arriving in September! I think most everyone knows about the baby, but just in case, there's the news! We're so excited, and it will be a lot of fun to have two little ones to occupy life at home. Katelyn and the baby will be 15 months a part, so they hopefully will be good buddies. I've been feeling really sick, which I try to remind myself, that's a good sign. :) But somedays, it just isn't easy. But He never gives us more than we can handle with His grace!

We just returned from skating this morning - Katelyn's second skate. :) All bundled up in her pink snowsuit, she's a definite cutie. Now to clean the house and enjoy a day together! Happy belated Valentines Day as well. :)
