The Slacker Update

Yep, that's me, the slacker. I can't believe that I have let this much time pass without updating. I'm guessing it has to do with that I keep everyone pretty updated through Facebook. I know that there are some of you who are not regulars of Facebook so I will try harder to post more often.

Katelyn turned 5 months on 6/21 and her 6th month birthday is quickly approaching on 7/21. Can anyone believe that she is almost 6 months old? I look forward to getting her 6 month photos taken. Since professional photos are so darn expensive, we decided to only do them at 6 months and then maybe once a year after that. My sweet little baby is almost half a year old! There are still some days I can't believe that she is mine. After everything I went through health-wise in 2007, it is an absolute miracle that Katelyn is here and completely healthy. Or maybe it is more of a miracle that as I sit here today my biggest complaint is doing the laundry or figuring out what to make for dinner. I feel so fortunate and try to remind myself of these things when some days life seems just a little too much.

Katelyn is reaching all of her milestones. She can now roll over both ways (tummy to back and back to tummy). It seems though once she accomplishes something she isn't too interested in doing it anymore. She just moves on to the next thing. She also is sitting up like a champ. If I sit her on a blanket, she will sit there for quite awhile before she topples over, which will sometimes get a chuckle from her and Mama. She can even give kisses now! If you open your mouth, she will open hers up wide and slobber all over you. It is a little gross but completely adorable at the same time.

I am posting a video of Katelyn in one of her "crazy" moods which seem to happen much more frequently these days. The title "When Wild Monkeys Attack" says it all, trust me!

Until next time...
