Photo Shoot

Kaitlin is growing up so fast I just had to get pictures of her in all of her cutest outfits while she can still wear them. I'm pretty sure this post is more about me than about Kaitlin! Can you figure out which outfits were bought with her Daddy in mind? Thank you very much to everyone who sent Kaitlin such stylish duds!

Kaitlin's 6-month Checkup

Kaitlin had her 6-month checkup this afternoon. She weighed in at 14 lbs. 2 oz and is 26 ¾ inches long. We thought she would be closer to 15 pounds, but the doctor said that her growth is right on track and that she looks great! Some of Kaitlin's latest accomplishments include rolling over (both ways now) and sitting. She has also discovered her ears and everytime she hears a loud noise, she puts her hands over them. She also loves to stick out her tongue! Tonight she will eat baby food for the first time.

We also applied for Passports today. We aren't planning a trip anytime soon, but we thought it would be a good idea to have them just in case; that way we don't have to rush to get them if we do decide to travel out of the country. The pictures they take for those things are awful! Kaitlin is the only one of us who looks cute in hers :)

Happy Birthday Simba!

There seem to be a lot more pictures of Harley on the blog than of Simba (could be because Simba and I don't get along that well). So, I thought Simba deserved a little face time since it is his 11th birthday today. We caught a rare few minutes on film the other night - Simba, Kaitlin, and me together. Although Kaitlin is very interested in Simba, he's not as eager for her attention as Harley is and she doesn't get to touch him very often.

Kaitlin's first Valentine's Day

Kaitlin enjoyed her first Valentine's Day very much! She exchanged valentines with her friends at BabyGym (Parker, George Truitt, Myles, and Parrish) and got some bubbles, a stuffed animal, Cheerios, and a cookie. She can't have the Cheerios and cookie just yet, but I'm sure she will enjoy them when the time comes! She also got valentines from Mommy and Daddy, MomMom and PopPop, Grandma, and Kyler & Kohl. MomMom also sent her some Valentine's Day apparel so that she would be dressed appropriately. Here are some pictures. She also has a matching shirt that says "I love Daddy" but she spit up on it and had to change before I could get a picture.

"Swinging, swinging, Kaitlin's going swinging..."

So Sweet

Kaitlin rolled over for the first time (back to tummy) over a month ago, but has only done it a few times here and there ever since. Tonight, however, she rolled over four times on her own! I guess she was excited about the Super Bowl!

She has also really started to take an interest in the animals lately and has even "pet" Harley and Simba a few times. Harley has been very patient and gentle with her. Here is a picture of the two of them together.

This picture is just too cute not to share!
