More Narrations

"I seep" ([I sleep] When she lays down and pretends to sleep on the couch or our bed)
"I fissing" ([I'm fishing] When she's planting with the toy fishing pole)
"Narnia" (When she steals one of the "The Chronicles of Narnia" books off the shelf)
"I suck" [I'm stuck]
"I got it!" (Referring to a ball.)
"I fix it."

Katie Narrates Her Life


This weekend Daddy made the comment that Katie's speech is like a narration of her life. So true! Here's just a few instances that I can think of:
"I pick." (You can probably guess what she's describing.)
"I funny." (When she laughs or makes us laugh.)
"I siwwee." ([I'm silly] Describing hanging out under something- like the jumperoo, or wearing an article of clothing the wrong way.)
"Dump!" ([Jump] This one's self-explanatory.)
"Go fast." (When we're in the stroller or a shopping cart and on the move.)
"Shoes on." (This one's obvious.)

Making Baby Sounds

This little guy is really coming into his own. He's pretty steady when we prop him up in a seated position, he holds his head up and turns it with minimal bobbing, he plays with his hands, he makes bubbles in his spit (actually- he's been doing that for about a month now), he can support his weight standing up (with Mommy or Daddy holding him under his arms, of course), and he has some fun baby sounds. "Ah-goo," "Bwaah," and "Aaaaa-ohh.". Mommy loves this baby boy so much!

Strollin' in Our Jammies

Mommy has decided that the only time to walk the dogs during the summer is FIRST thing in the morning. So here we are, right after breakfast, in our jammies, getting ready to take the dogs for a walk. (This was also the first time Ethan rode in the stroller sitting upright. Usually he is either lying down or in the car seat. He liked it a lot more.)

Ethan Likes the Jumperoo


First time. Just takin' it all in.


Smiling at Mommy.


Here's a little live footage. I think Katie was at least 4 months old before we put her in this, but oh well. I just want a place to put him where Katie can't get to him. And he seems to enjoy it.

4th of July Fun

We celebrated Independence Day at Mike and Jocelyn's this year.
Katie had a blast exploring.

Ethan had a blast just sitting around watching.

We even had some fun swimming.

Ethan was less than thrilled about it.

But Katie loved her new floaties.
