Katelyn is 8 weeks old! I can't believe how quickly time has passed. Her new obsessions this past week or longer have been sucking on her hands like CRAZY! It is like the backs of her hands and her fingers are popsicle sticks and she just keeps licking away~this also leads to MUCH drooling as well. It's hard to get a picture of her these days without her hands in her face/mouth!
I have been walking a lot more with her in her stroller. It is so fun to get out again and feel like I'm getting somewhat of a workout in~and we've been walking with my friend Allison and her daughter Addison, who is 6 days younger than Kate. It is so nice to compare notes with another mother and daughter in the same phase of life as myself. And we have been walking rain/drizzle or shine~3 to 5 miles at a time. Kate LOVES her BOB stroller, thankfully. She gets lulled to sleep by the bumps in the road and the sounds of the street/nature and then every once in a while she will wake up to make sure she hasn't missed out on anything. Here is a rare picture of the sun in Katelyn's eyes...I say that because we haven't seen much sun around here the past month or so, but this last week was a rare occasion.
We have also started sitting her in her Bumbo seat since she is pretty much holding her head up by herself. She loves it~well, for about 10 minutes, and then she gets bored and wants to do something else. But for those 10 minutes, she is pretty darn proud of herself and enjoys cooing and flapping/waving her arms around. It's so cute! She will sit with Noah and I on the couch while we watch TV sometimes...this picture is priceless!
It's been a busy week, but a fun one none the less! Happy 8 weeks Katelyn Claire~what a pure joy and delight you have been to your daddy and I! ~xoxox
That last picture with Noah...you should frame that and give it to him for Father's Day. Too sweet.
