Morning buddies

It's been a while since this little guy snuggled up and slept next to me. But this morning I went up to get him when his squawks woke me, I picked him up and realized he was still asleep (this has happened several times - we may have a sleep talker on our hands). I brought him down and he slept between Matt and me for another hour. Once he was done sleeping, he was done!  and ready to eat! So here we are, my little buddy and me.

Wait just a minute

What is this boy thinking, standing himself up all on his own. He's been doing this for several days now. He's got the bruises on his forehead as evidence. He thinks he's all big.

Heaven

I love peeking in on our little people when they are sleeping. They are perfectly peaceful...

Just now

This little Cowboy fell asleep on the way home from running some errands. I tried to lay him in bed still asleep but with no success. He is now as perky as can be. It's hard to feel too bad about it with that darling face looking up at me.

Ready for church

How handsome is this little guy!?  It's a trick finding a tie he can wear. Turns out you really need a neck to wear a tie. He's getting around much more these days, much, much more. Hence the now almost constant bruises on his forehead.

Monkey Bread

I always get super excited when something turns out. So when I tried monkey bread for the first time and it turned out so pretty I just had to take a picture (Don't mind Amy... That's her "I-can't-wait-to-try-this" face :-) We all gathered around it with forks and dug in. It was extra toasty hot at first, but that didn't stop us. And oh how delish it was!

Ready to go...

Grandma Kay came up and announced that she's going to Caroline's house. Kate quickly jumped up and said "Happy ready, too!" At that point she  did have a diaper on but wasn't wearing shoes. So I got those on her. Again she ran around the kitchen saying "Happy ready, too! Happy ready, too!!"  (That's what she is saying in the first picture.  The second picture is when I told her she also had to get dressed before she could go with Grandma.)

Grandma Kay came back in and saw her dancing around the kitchen chanting and had a good laugh.  Of course I knew why. At least Kate knew she needed shoes on and a diaper  BEFORE she left the house.

"Ice Wado"

For the last few months Kate has been requesting "ice wado" (ice water) multiple times a day.  This may be a result of seeing her older sisters frequently drinking ice water. It may also stem from grandma and grandpa's ice water habit. They always have large cups of ice water on their night stands that Kate is drinking out of.  I'm guessing that's where she stole this big ol' cup of ice water from. She just wandered upstairs with it. I'm predicting grandma coming in search of it in the near future.

Buddies (forever, I hope)

Kate has started being more aware of Daniel O. He thinks she is hilarious, and his belly laugh couldn't be cuter, so why wouldn't she want to hang out with him :-) We were at home depot and Kate came up behind him and have him a big squeeze. (I couldn't decide which picture I liked better.) Cute little people!
