Kate vs. the laundry hamper

She was being so silly & cute this evening - wallowing all over the kitchen floor & wrestling a laundry hamper. She's not usually this goofy about things, but was in a great mood this night! Here is a short video, and a few still shots of her wrestling action.

Kate practicing her words (with a mouthful of food!)

Here is Kate in her highchair as we work on her vocabulary - it's hard to get her to sit still for the camera so I had to put her in the highchair, but then she wanted a snack! Oh well, you get the idea. :)

Sorry I fell off the face of the earth!

Here are some more recent pictures of Katie-boo. She is 15 months old right now & trying to run!! Her feet can't keep up with her mind though, so sometimes we still have spills. Right now she is really working on her vocabulary & speaking more and more everyday. She is wonderful! :) Enjoy.

New things are coming our way...

Here is the first picture of Kate's little baby brother or sister! 10 weeks, 1 day today, due late August. Baby Atwell was jumping around so much it was hard to get a clear picture!!

We are blessed and excited as our family continues to grow.

I hate the formatting part!

Ok, so my last post was lame - all the captions don't quite match up. But seriously, I don't have the time or energy to keep trying to fix it - I've been at it too long now! I've also had bad luck w/ craigslist today... just not getting the good computer vibes today. Sorry if it's confusing! :)

Catch-up!!

Sorry it's been awhile - life has been hectic but great during the holidays! Here are a few photos to catch up w/ Katie-bird during the holidays. Sorry if the spacing is weird - seems like I can't get the format right lately! Argh.





We love this game, it's called "don't touch!"
Fun with a giant Christmas tree in the house!





































What are you lookin' at?
Can't a girl drink her cup in peace?

If you're happy and you know it...

My 2 favorite people snuggling.

Room for one more?

Kate & Ava bouncing away!

She climbed into this all by herself

- with her milk still in hand, of course.

Can I join your band Uncle Brad & Rusty??

I have this cool guitar my mom got from her

Corn Pops box and I also have these cool

bells I like to shake. Seriously, I'm good!

Chillin' on the step.

Running away w/ granola bars under the table.

Probably my new favorite picture of her.

I mean, she's seriously cute, right?!
