A Buncha Photos

Okey doke. I promised lots of photos and I'm gonna follow up. So here goes ( and as always, you can click on any photo for a larger version):

You might recall that I typed in my own blog entry a little while back. This is a photo of me at the controls of Daddy's Power Mac, literally blogging for myself. (I've got to say, I really like Daddy's Mac much more than any PC!)

Extreme closeup!

I love getting kisses from Mommy.

I also love playing on the barnyard playmat. That cow and chicky bird play music and move back and forth. How fun! Big thanks to Mommy and Daddy's friends Krista and Matt for letting us borrow it.

I also love playing with my froggy mobil. It has a butterfly, fish and turtle hanging from it and is really quite entertaining. Sometime I'll have Daddy take a picture of me playing with my apple. It's fun too!

Hanging out on Mommy and Daddy's bed. I look like I'm getting ready to arm wrestle in this picture.

Mommy made me this (ultra-bright) hat so my head stays warm in the winter...and so that I'm visible from outer space. I love you, Mommy! ;-) It does fit perfectly.

I've talked here before about how I love to smile and laugh, this is a little sample:

Well, that's all for now. It's time to rest now. Thanks for visiting!

Chompin' & Turnin'

Dearest Readers,

Turns out that I'm really growing up! In the last week I've taken my first bites of cereal and I'm able to turn over from my tummy to my back. Kind of a cool trick.

Cereal was interesting. At first I wasn't sure what to do with the spoon thing and the cereal. My tongue did a better job of pushing the food out of my mouth instead of in. But Mommy was there to push the food back in if I pushed it out and I eventually got the hang of eating it. Daddy took a lot of pictures:

That's a picture of my first bite of cereal ever. I got very messy just seconds after he took this. After a while I was really hoping that he'd help me out, but alas, he wouldn't:

So that was interesting.

Yeah, so the other accomplishment -- Mommy and Daddy call it my "trick" -- is that I can turn from my tummy to my back. Not so good going the other direction, but I'm working on it. Here's me in action (sorry there's no audio):

So there you have it! Two big deals for a little girl. Fun stuff. Pretty soon, maybe even tomorrow, I'm going to have a bunch of new photos for you. See ya!

Peace out,
K

And Then God Put Odor in the Poopoo.

Our little girl is growing up! Baby K is more than four months old now! She's smiling and laughing a lot more, playing with toys...

...and getting pretty stinky.

Bill Cosby did a routine in his film Himself about how parents are so enthralled by the cute little "poopoos" that newborns release. Cosby then shifts the routine with the sentence I put in the subject line.

Katherine's poopoos have progressed to be pretty darn potent. Not only that but they're more, um, substantially robust in texture. While I'm so happy that she's growing up and her internals are progressing as necessary, when that odor hit me for the first time....dang.

Just what you wanted to read on this blog, huh? ;-)

Smiles,

Laughter, the best medicine!

I love to laugh! I never knew something could be so much fun. I like to do it for all sorts of different reasons. For instance, when I am getting a new, clean diaper, I smile and laugh because it's soooo nice to have a new, clean diaper. Also, after Mommy has fed me, I like to smile and laugh, because it feels soooo good to have a full tummy!!!

I have also noticed that I when I begin to laugh, other people begin laughing and smiling too!!! It's amazing! Who knew that a little giggle from a little girl like me, could cause others to feel better! Mommy says, "Laughter really is the best medicine!"

Bye-bye
Katherine

A note from Bubby: Last week I was sticking my tongue out at Katherine and she started laughing, so I started laughing. We were laughing together for like 5 or 6 minutes!! It was AWESOME!!!!

Happy Valentine's Day!

Smilin' and Snugglin'

Hey again, my worldwide friends!

This world just keeps getting more and more interesting all of the time! The bigger I get, the more I'm interested in stuff. I love to just look around and see what's going on around me.

People are more and more entertaining all of the time. You can bet that if you say hello to me, I'm probably going to smile at you. I love to smile! I guess people love to see me smile, too. Whenever we're out in public, people will want to take a peek at me and ask Mommy or Daddy about me.

I also love to snuggle. Daddy used to rock me to sleep at night by cradling me in his arms, but anymore I really like to be upright and lay my head on his shoulder. Oh sure, I can fall asleep other ways too, but snuggling is my favorite.

Sorry, but I don't have a lot to say beyond that. I figure people are always up for more photos, though. Enjoy!

Love,
Katie Bug

What did I tell you? I love to smile!

Big Brother (I like to call him "Bubby") reads to me a lot. Sometimes I doze off a bit, though. :-\

Now for a fashion show: Don't I look pretty in my dress?

How do you like my farmer baby look?

Catch you later!
