Happy Easter

This was my first Easter and I had a lovely, 1- nap day with mommy and daddy!

Check out the easter basket daddy made me!

Here I am with my super cool monkey bunny!!!!

Daddy even played guitar for me in the morning:)

And here I am at the end of the day borrowing Luke's bunny ears:)


Mommy and Daddy don't know what to do with me because I have decided that I don't want to nap during the day anymore. It makes me cranky at night and then I get so worked up that I can't sleep and I scream and scream... so they are trying to force me to nap during the day, but we'll see if it works... so far I haven't really felt like it!

Hanging out with my friends

Mommy wanted to get some pictures of me with all my best friends all dressed up, so Auntie Stephanie brought Braydon and Morganne over after their Easter Pictures, and we had a photo shoot with Luke.



There were temper tantrums, screaming toddlers, and sleeping babies - but hopefully one of the mommmies got a good picture of all 4 of us.

Mommy was able to get this cute shot of me and Braydon - he's 6 days older than me.

This is the only one on mommy's camera of all 4 of us and the boys are cut off:(

We went to the park after this and I can't wait until I'm big enough to play like Luke and Morganne!!!

New Video!

Daddy got me to copy him so mommy tried and we taped it:)

Fun Spring Day with my Friends!!!!!

Today was another big day for me! I went to the Danbury Mall with the Paynes to see the Easter Bunny.. Here I am at the food court waiting for mommy and daddy to finish eating so I could get my picture taken. I'm wearing my spring dress and mommies old baby bonnet!

Here I am with the Easter Bunny... I'm eating my hand in this one. It cost $15 bucks for the picture they took, so this is the knock off!!! YIKES~ but mommy and daddy bought it anyway cause it was a very cute picture of me and the easter bunny - we'll scan it later to post here:)Here is me with my buddy Braydon cuddling in his swing for a picture...
The big kids(Morganne and Luke) got to have an easter egg hunt, but Braydon and I each stole an egg to play along too!

I had such a good time with all my friends!! Hope you all had a wonderful weekend!

Happy Spring!!!

Love,

Katie!

LONG weekend at Mimi and Grumps!

This weekend, I went to the airport with mommy and daddy to pick up Mimi after spending 2 days with grammie and grandpa. (mommies camera was in Puerto Rico with mimi, so she only has this one picture of me with Grammie - but we had a great time!!!

Unfortunately, mommy got sick with a cold and didn't want to be home alone with me cause she couldn't take medicine. So, we got to stay with Mimi and Grumps from Friday night until tonight. (wednesday) Grumps gave me my night bottles, and mimi spoiled me in the mornings by hanging out with me so mommy could sleep in!:) I even got to hang out in my awesome camping chair that Carly gave me on the deck for the first time.

All in all, it was a wonderful long weekend and mommy got over her cold because of all the extra sleep she got.

Thanks Mimi and Grumps - I'll miss you!

Here I am with grumps.... hunting bad guys!!!!

Grandpa Juany

Last Thursday, my great grandpa Juany (I suppose I would have called him Pop Pop as everyone else calls him Pop) passed away of a heart attack in Puerto Rico. Everyone is very sad and surprised as he really wasn't sick. Mimi flew out to Puerto Rico first thing Friday morning with Uncle Louie, Uncle Ruben, Titi Millie and Cousin Kathy. Then after mommy talked to Mimi on Saturday morning, she decided to fly out Saturday night. I know she didn't want to leave me but she wanted to go to be there for her family and grandma and especially Mimi.

Here is a picture of daddy with Mimi, Grandma, Grandpa and Titi Aida in Puerto Rico, 2 christmases ago.

Since mommy went to Puerto Rico, that left me with Daddy alone all night Saturday and all day Sunday! Then Grumps (Staff Sgt.) came to watch me ALL DAY monday and he even helped out at night. (He really likes feeding me when I wake up)

Mommy wasn't worried cause she knew I was in GREAT hands and having a great time at home. Grumps brought me an easter chickie that makes noise and he played all kinds of games with me. We even did some PT to get me into Marine Shape for when it comes time for crawling and walking.

Today, Grammie and Grandpa are coming to visit me. They haven't seen me since I was 1 month old... and Mommy thinks they are going to be shocked at how big I've gotten! So I will get to see all my grandparents this week!

This weekend, we are going to get Mimi at the airport and hang out with her in CT. I have the magic ability to cheer people up, just by being in the room sometimes, so I think it will be lots of fun to go see her and help cheer her up a bit. Then it's back to NY with mommy and daddy for the week.

Here is a reminder of how little I was just 2.5 months ago!
