Happy Halloween!

Walking caught on tape!

Whew!

I have lots to catch up on...we will start here:

10 months

11 months

We moved into a house (woo hoo!) and aside from still not being able to find things, we are loving it!

Helping paint the new house!

Gotta start the growth chart on the door frame!

Katie and I went to Hawaii to visit the Cousins, Auntie Heidi and Uncle Kirk. We were there for Hayley's Birthday and had a great time. Katie did very well on the flight. It helped that we had a whole row to ourselves going both ways.

After we got back from Hawaii, My Dad came to help us do some stuff to the house, we had a great visit, and he and Katie got along great!

Hanging put with Pop-Pop!

While he was here she started walking...I've been on my toes ever since. I keep finding things in unusual places...like the dog's water bowl. (ie, her toys, the dogs toys, her socks, my cell phone...you see how it is.)

Yep, that's walking.

Hell bent on the destruction of my cell phone!

Getting ready for Halloween!

Katie almost totally stopped using sign language while she was learning to walk...but took off after she mastered locomotion. Here are the signs she knows as of now:
milk, more, shoes, change, diaper, dirty, cheese, horse, dog, Kitty, daddy, bubbles, book, bird, go, up, and her favorite...ball.
The sign for bubbles quickly turned into a whispered "bubas" and eventually a pretty clear "bubble". I'm putting it down as her first word.
