Catching up

The pups love the backyard in our new house.

And their new baby sister!

And her toys.

What's up y'all?

I'm going to make another effort to get back to blogging. I've documented my fur babies' lives, so what kind of a mother would I be if I didn't do the same for my actual baby?

Our new house is getting somewhere close to an acceptable living condition, Kaitlyn is sleeping more and Alan should have a lighter load at the hospital for awhile. Time is flying. I believe it has sped up since Kaitlyn was born. Slow down! I want to enjoy my baby!

In the last two weeks she has started to smile for long periods at a time, and several time she's let out little giggles — usually when she toots. She tooted all through communion at her first church service, which was Mother's Day. The little boys in the pew in front of us got in trouble for laughing about it.

Kaitlyn got Alan a drill for his first Father's Day to replace the one that was lost in the move. He's already used it to take down the cabinet doors for painting — and I'm hoping he'll use it to put them back up soon!

This is some of my favorite time with her — sleeping all cozy and content on my chest.

Alan caught us sleeping in the same position this week.

We discovered that her hair gets curly when wet. I don't know if this is new or if I'd just never brushed it this way before, but she definitely got that from Alan.

Squeaky clean!
