Miss Kate is 6 Months!

My little baby girl is already 6 months old. Where did the time go? It feels like we just brought her home from the hospital, and suddenly she is a BABY - no longer a newborn. How did this happen?

Katelyn's 6 month stats:
Weight: 17 lbs 9 oz - 80%
Height: 25 1/8" -  25%
Head size: 43 1/2 cm  - 75%
So....she is short and chubby. Just as we predicted. Haha. We love our litle tubby tubs Kate. Owen ESPECIALLY adores her. He is constantly kissing, hugging, and 'helping' her with diaper changes, buckling her carseat, and other 'helper' type things.

Kate is talented. Here's what she can do!
-Sit up, she is really sturdy and doesn't fall over easily
-Roll from tummy to back (and ALMOST from back to tummy)
-Grabs all kinds of objects and sucks on them
-Laughs at: peek-a-boo, loud noises, tickles, wiggles & jiggles
-She can 'head-butt' on command (which is knocking her forehead against mine). Then she laughs.
-Sleeps about 11 hours at night without waking up. 11pm - 10am
-Grabs her feet and sometimes sucks on her toes
-Sucks her thumb in the corner of her mouth

 

After posting these pictures I noticed that Blogger (Blogspot) uploads are NOT high quality. All of my pictures are slightly grey. They are not at all grey tinted just viewing them on my computer, only the uploaded version. So sad! But the pictures are still just as darling as ever - cause my kids are the CUTTEST KIDS EVER CREATED! :-)

Owen's 3rd Birthday Invitation - Movie Invitation

Hey out there! Owen wants to invite his friends over for his BIRTHDAY PARTY! Watch video below.

If you have to leave early, or come late...thats okay. Just come!

I made brian take more than just 1 photo today. It got a little silly at the end :-) Here are a few of them.

Thank you, Angie, for the SUPER FUN baby shower this week. And more "THANK YOU's" go out to all the people who helped and  brought food and goodies. Thank you! Thank you! Thank you!

Darling decor, so many friends, and lots of adorable girlie items....couldn't have been any better.
Yay!

Wow - I can't believe I made it to 36 weeks. Yay me! Yay baby girl!
Here is a pic of my gigantic belly. (I'm still 10 lbs smaller than i was at 34 weeks when pregnant with Owen. How did I manage that?)
Thanks Mom for the cute shirt :-) And the good genes...no stretch marks yet (knock on wood)
