Video: How I stand up

The little lady on the go!

Harassing Kallie

Kallie is realizing that K's mobility is not good for her. K LOVES crawling all over her, pulling up on her and quite often pokes Kallie in the eye. Poor dog! With the weather getting a big nicer, Kallie likes to hang out on our patio for a bit of fresh air. K couldn't stand to be without her and stared longingly at her through the glass. As you can see, Kallie seems thrilled to be away from her!



I can't see Kallie anymore... I don't understand why she doesn't want to be near me?! Where did she go?

Mom where did Kallie go? I miss her already!

Stand up!

K is all over the place and crawling is SO last month! Now she pulls herself up onto everything and the hearth of our fireplace is one of her favorites. Hence the padding on the edge! She recently learned that if she has toys on the hearth she needs to hold on. Olga (our nanny) is helping her learn how to get down from the standing position as you can see from these next pictures.

Getting ready to let go but still holding on with one hand. Checking out to see if there are any toys behind her!

And boom we're down safely. Thank goodness for the extra padding in the diapers!

Happy St. Patty's Day

Wishing you the luck o the Irish from our very own Wild Irish Rose.

Little miss monkey

K has started pulling herself up on everything to stand up - the hearth of the fireplace, the sofa, our pants legs and now her crib. She was SO proud of herself as you can see by her grin!



And now that she can stand K then found out how tasty the crib can be to teethe on!

Weekend with the Woods family

This weekend mom and K headed to Wisconsin while D went to Madison to do some work at the lake. We had some quality family time since Aunt and Uncle Potts as well as their lovable golden Keenan came along too. Keenan LOVED K so much as you can see from the photos belowl.

He was right next to her playing at all times "helping" with the toys too!

Nana found some toys up in the attic from when we were growing up including a Fischer Price activity center. K loved it and boy did it bring back memories!

Visit with old friends

We had a wonderful brunch on Sunday with some high school friends. K definitely made some new friends once she warmed up!


She definitely wanted to yank on that pretty Tiffany's necklace that M was wearing. Thankfully she wasn't successful.


And the gang from American Eagle - where the 3 of us used to work back in high school. Can't believe we've stayed friends all these years but I'm thankful to have such wonderful people in my life!

Getting ready for college

Since we're already saving for college, we might as well start building up her tolerance, right? For Bradley or Dayton maybe? We'd really better start saving now! How does a state school sound baby K?!

10 months = mischief!

Yes I am 10 months old which means I know how these monthly photo shoots go and I'm going to give you about 30 seconds to take pictures before I remove the sticker. One, two... go!

And I got it off... did you get any good pictures?!

So we just took some cute pictures with her flower in her hair which surprisingly lasted longer than the sticker on the shirt!

Talk to me!

K has started chatting with us much more lately and is getting very vocal. We also taught her to do this little thing with her tongue and it's funny because she started adding sound to it. She's a little sponge who mimics much of what we do (she scrunches her nose now like mom does too!) so we'd better be careful what we teach her and do around her!! She clearly has "dada" down so we're now working on "mama"!!
