The Great Outdoors

The girls and I have had colds for the last few days. Despite being under the weather, we spent a lot of time outside this weekend. We had record highs this week. We actually made it into the 90's (what happened to spring?). We took a walk at a local park and also spent some time hanging out on our deck.

Kate is really into finding airplanes these days. Every time she hears one (...or a lawnmower for that matter) she stops what she's doing and tries to find it.


I thought this clip was really cute. Elliott is trying so hard to be cute and get Kate's attention. It doesn't work. Elliott is no match for the Disney channel. Kate completely ignores her...


These are Kate's dance moves. This is Kate's dance move. Hopefully she'll add to her repertoire as she gets older. It's cute now, but can you picture an eighteen year old doing this...?


Foster and Kamatha came over yesterday to bring Kate her birthday present. It was so nice out that we sat out on the deck and let the kids play.


This one makes me laugh. You can tell by her expression that she is having an internal struggle whether to obey me or do what she wants to do. What can I say, two year olds have no impulse control.


Here is Kate doing what Kate does best-- spinning.


For the most part Kate ignores Elliott. However she will come up to her randomly throughout the day and pat her head or kiss her. This one was prompted by me, but you get the idea.


Kate has started using the expression "so big" a lot. It sounded vaguely familiar to us, but for the first few days Matt and I couldn't place where we had heard it. Finally, the other night when she was playing in her room we heard it over the monitor. It's one of the phrases her talking toy dog says. Matt and I were both like, "Oh yeah! That's where we've heard it before".

The Best Sound

This was shot on the crappy phone camera so the quality isn't good at all... but I still think it's pretty cute!  This is Elliot's first "giggle fit". Also, if you're really bored, you can watch a video of Kate at the same age having her first "giggle fit"(June 4th 2009).
