While we were in Utah last weekend, we dressed Katelyn up as a little carrot for Halloween. She was just adorable!! I think she really loved it, even though she cried most of the time she was wearing it. :) She loves to kick her legs and the costume didn't really allow it, so you can imagine how happy she was to get it off! My sister came over with her kids as well for a little Halloween stew and to show off their awesome costumes. We also visited Dave's sister-in-law and got some cute pictures of our kids together. What a great trip!

Katelyn's Blessing

On October 18th, Dave, Katelyn and I flew home so that we could bless Katelyn in Utah, where our family could come to see her. She looked so beautiful in the blessing dress my mom made for her. Wow, maybe one of these days I can learn to sew as well as she does. She even did the beautiful embroidery. Katelyn was so good during church and woke up during the blessing just in time to look around to see who was there. She never cried, she was just curious. Here are some photos that we took of Katelyn as well as of our families. As you can see, we were having a great time. :)

She's a swimmer!

Today was Katelyn's first time in the pool and she loved it! Well, almost. She didn't cry and that's close to loving it. I don't think she quite knew what to do when she got wet, but as you can see below, Dave is a master teacher and taught her how to float on her back! Only 7 weeks old. What a quick learner.
Look, she floats!
All tuckered out. She has really slept well tonight after her day at the pool. I think we just found a new addition to her bedtime routine. What a cutie. :)

She's getting bigger!

Little Katelyn is 6 weeks old! She is just adorable and I love to hold her and kiss her! She made my day today when I walked over to her while she was in her bassinet and as I said hello to her, she gave me a big smile! I loved it! Hopefully I'll be able to catch one of her smiles with my camera so I can post it.

Getting Katelyn ready

Our cute little Katelyn was wiggling around before and after her bath. Don't let the distressed look in the second clip fool you... she loves to take a bath! Her cute little cry in the second clip is very characteristic of her. What a cute baby. :)
