The Easter Bunny Came!!

I have been waiting for so long and he FINALLY came! I had so much fun on Easter! I woke up and mommy and daddy took me downstairs and I saw the Easter bunny visited our house. I searched for big eggs and got a basket full of treats. After church we all went over to Grama and Pa's house where EVERYONE came to celebrate! Grama and Pa Fimmen, Grama and Pa Horton, Aunt Jenny, Uncle Rob, Peanut, Aunt Carolyn, Uncle Tom, cousin Tom, Miss Nancy, Michelle and Mary! It was so much fun! The Easter Bunny came to their house too and Tom and I got to dress up in bunny costumes and hunt for eggs...there were millions of them! It took us some time to get into it, but we got some of the eggs. It was a bit rainy and cold out so Tom and I decided we would let all the adults finish picking up the rest of the millions of eggs when we were tired. We were sure surprised and excited when we got inside and got to open those eggs though!!! They were filled with all our favorite things...Goldfish, Nilla wafers and Teddy Graham...there were even a few Elmo eggs filled with Oreos!!! I had never had an Oreo before, but they might just be the best things ever invented. It is really cool how my mouth gets all dirty when I eat them too! I kept saying "more" over and over again for those!! Mmm!

Thank you everyone for making my Easter so special! I love you!

Love,
Kate

Video...playing around!

Here is a video of me, dad, mom, murphy all playing tonight before bed time! Murphy makes me laugh so much! I think it is funny to give me my socks, babies or anything she can whip around in her mouth. When Murphy takes what I give her I pretend she took it from me and say "uh oh"!!! Then I crack up like crazy when she whips it around in her mouth!!! Murphy is the BEST!

Love,

Kate

Playing with my dolls

Before bedtime tonight I played with my Baby Bella and other toys in my room. I have a stroller, a rocking cradle and lots of other fun stuff for baby Bella. I love to say "rocky rock" when I put Bella in the cradle and rock it back and forth. I really love the stroller...I play with it for long period of time trying Bella in it and strolling her across my bedroom!

After we played house with Bella mommy and daddy read me my favorite book, I had my milk and went nye-nye!

Love,

Fashion Show!

Tonight was so much fun! Mom helped me put on a fashion show for Daddy! We tried on some of my new clothes and we wanted to try to figure out which of the 2 Easter outfits mom got me I would wear for the big day so we had a fashion show!

Mom and I would go to my bedroom and I would pick which of the outfits that she had layed out I wanted to try on. She would help me get dressed, then we would go downstairs and I would walk over to daddy and show him my new outfit! I had so much fun...I let mom put 6 outfits on me and I did not fuss at all. Mom tried to teach me to spin in my dresses, but I did not really understand. She would put me in front of my bathroom mirror so I could see myself and I looked so pretty (I say "Pa" for pretty).

Thank goodness mom bought more than 1 Easter dress because one of them was so yucky!! See the picture below with me in the ugly bonnet! What was she thinking?? I look crazy and it was itchy!

Hope you like the pictures!
Love,
Kate

I like to play in drawers - here I am in my drawer!

What was she thinking...luckily we still have the receipt!!

Monkey Bizness

Last weekend mom and dad took me to a really cool place called Monkey Bizness. It is an indoor play place for kids just like me. My favorite thing to do was to go down the slide. They would count to 3 and on 3 I would push myself from the slide and slide down as fast as I could. When I hit the bottom mom or dad would throw me up in the air! It was so cool...I did it over and over and over and over again. I just giggled like crazy!

My other favorite thing to do was to watch the other kids. Some bigger kids were so nice and would come and talk to me. I would wave at them and say "hi "until they got close...then I got a little shy, but when they would walk away I would say "hi" again!! One bigger boy (he was about 8) would watch me and laugh at how funny I was. I liked him a lot!

I went back with mom, Aunt Carolyn and cousin Tom the past week and had some more fun! I did trip over my feet though and bang my nose really bad...it got all swollen and is now bruised. That is okay though...I am still pretty cute!

Did I mention my big cousin Tom is in town??? We have had so much fun playing together! He is so fun to watch...I just cheer him on, and steal his stuff! They are trying to teach me to be nice and share...I am learning! We went to Deanne Rose Farm this week too! I love the ponies and Tom loved the goats!!! I can now nay like a horse and moo like a cow! I saw horse and cows there! Cool! We will send you all pictures of us playing together soon!

Love,

Kate

1,2,3...WEE!!!!

It is such a big place...and I am such a little girl:

Daddy is showing me the ropes!

The Easter Bunny's Coming...

I am really excited for the Easter Bunny to come Sunday! Grama Fimmen and I always sing the song together and she has had her decorations out for us to get all ready for the bunny! Last weekend mom, dad, Grama and Pa Fimmen all took me to an Easter egg hunt. It was really cold though...I had to bundle up to stay warm! I had never hunted for Easter eggs before, but boy did I get a lot of them!!! Once I got the hang of it, I grabbed as many as I could find! I might have even been the winner in the kids under 2 group....heehee!!! :)

Guess what? The Easter bunny was there and I got to meet him. Mom and I got our picture taken with him. He was much bigger than I imagined, but I loved him so much. I wanted to have lots of pictures taken with him. I was really disappointed when everyone told me it was the other kids turn with the Easter bunny. I wanted to talk with him all morning long!

Love,

I have been one busy girl!

Hi Everyone! It has been awhile since I had the time to blog...sorry! I have been really busy and have been learning and doing all sorts of new things. Every day I have a new trick!! Here is a little update...

I love to watch "Ba" (Barney that is). He is the coolest purple dinosaur ever! I just love music and his shows are jammed packed with songs and dances! I even know some of them now. I can do the actions to the song "if you're happy and you know it"! Everyone finds that pretty neat. I clap my hands, throw my hands up for hurray and let me "face show it" by pointing to my face. I love Barney so much that I bring the remote control over to mom and dad and ask them to turn "Ba" on for me. We all dance and sing together! I also learned to hop from Baby Bop on Barney...she hops all over the place in one of her songs!

Grandpa Fimmen "Pa" sneezes all the time, so when you ask me what Pa says I say "Aaaachew"! I love to get in my bathroom cabinets to pull out the wash clothes and I pretend I am washing my face like mom and dad do. I am such a big girl!

I can sing and when asked sing "la la la" or I try to repeat whatever mom is trying to sing! Mom thinks I have such a cute voice! Maybe I will be on American Idol one day!! Every time I see a clock with arms I say "tick tock".

At Grama Fimmen's house one day we were watching basketball and Gma taught me how to be a cheerleader. When anyone asks me to be one I throw my arms up in the air just like cheerleaders do! Grama lives across the street to a place that teaches karate lessons so I learned how to karate chop!

I got my 6th tooth (bottom left). I have transitioned from formula to whole milk. My favorite main courses are pizza, hot dogs, chicken and mac n cheese. I still love my veggies....but will only eat baby food veggies. And I LOVE bananas!!

I love to look out of windows to see all the action outside. I say "shh shh shh" when I want everyone to be quiet and listen! I love to help clean up. I now take my dirty diapers over to the trash...I pull open the trash can and drop them in and then shut the trash can just like a BIG girl! I learned how to put my blocks together and to pull them apart. I can also scribble with my magnetic pad....I can't wait until they let me use real crayons and markers!

One day Grama, Aunt Jenny and me went down to mommy's work to see her. We went out to lunch, shopped and then went to the Wizard of Oz display. Some of the pictures of the fun time are below. I got my picture taken with Dorothy, the tin man, the lion and the scarecrow AND I got to look like a munchkin!

We went down to Pittsburg a few weeks ago and I got to play with everyone! I even got to meet my 2nd cousin Lucy for the very first time!! It was so neat! I even gave her kisses!!

Well, it's past my bedtime...I better go to bed before mommy and daddy get upset!

I love you!
Love,
Kate
