ONE!!!!

Last night we had a family birthday dinner for Kate's first birthday. I can't believe she's already one! She had a lot fun. She loved her balloons (...she loved hitting her balloons). We got her a little smash cake of her own. I put her hand in it and she was not happy about having icing all over her hand. She got a cute little birthday outfit and tutu from Aunt Kathy that she wore for the second half of the night. It was so cute to see her walking around in a tutu. By the end of the night she was exhausted (which was good because she slept well). She had a very happy birthday!

So Sweet

Matt's Birthday and the Superbowl

Yesterday was Matt's 30th birthday and the Superbowl. I forgot to take my camera to the CG Superbowl party, but we left after half-time and went back to my parents' house. We cheered for the Colts on this one. I even made Kate an "I love Peyton" shirt (it was a kind of ghetto, last minute idea...). We're going to celebrate Matt's birthday with dinner tonight. This is a big birthday week for us. Kate turns one on Thursday. That means two birthday dinners in one week!

Snow Day

Kate "played" out in the snow for the first time today. She actually stayed very stiff, motionless and with no expression on her face the whole time. I'm pretty sure she wasn't too excited. I think she thought if she acted like a statue, we would get bored quickly and take her back inside the house. If that was her plan, it worked. She looked so miserable the whole time, we only spent about ten minutes out in the snow. I'm sure next year she'll have a blast.

Baby Steps

Kate took her first steps today. Here's the proof. Her gait is reminiscent of Frankenstein...
