Laughing at Day Care

Kaitlyn absolutely loves day care and the teachers (our neighbors). I get good reports every day and when I go to pick her up she is always laughing! When she comes home in the evening she is very tired and usually goes to bed by 8pm. She sleeps until about 6am, which gives mommy and daddy a chance to spend time together and sleep through the night. Kaitlyn is a good girl so far!

Secret Footage from the Big Day

Here is a clip from the delivery room. I copied Sarah's idea because it was such a good one. I actually got discouraged by trying to download videos previously because it took so long, but with my upgraded cable internet I don't have to wait an hour! Hooray - now you will all see Kaitlyn live...well, in another video.

Is Kaitlyn Getting Ready to Crawl?

It took a while, but mommy got used to the farm animals and actually fed the Emu (Star) on the last day. She didn't even mind that Ozzie the horse was so close to her (actually, she did because she is very afraid of horses!) Daddy is seen riding Cadillac Jack and Aunt Amy is petting his nose.

My First Boat Ride

Kaitlyn took her first boat ride in Kentucky - on the Paintsville Lake. She was required to wear a life preserver at all times while on board. Kaitlyn let us know that she would not be following the rules and the life preserver was taken off halfway through the journey. She complained that it was somewhat restricting.

My First Pet

While visiting Uncle Jim, Kaitlyn got her first pet - she named him Yum Yum. Uncle Jim will be feeding Yum Yum and bathing him regularly. His first meal was potatoes and chocolate cake. He has a friend so he will not get lonely - Kevin Bacon is his name. Kaitlyn is very excited to be able to taste Yum Yum when Uncle Jim brings him to Minneapoolis in a cooler for Thanksgiving.

Kaitlyn's Trip to Kentucky

Kaitlyn went on her first road trip last week. She went to Kentucky to visit her Uncle Jim - we like to call him Farmer Jim. She took mommy, daddy, and Zack with her on this 16 hour journey. She slept most of the way there and back with only a few stops needed for feeding and farting.

My Trip to Buffalo

I went to Buffalo recently - Kaitlyn's first adventure on an airplane. She did great with one exception. On the plane ride there she was wide awake for the whole trip...2 hours. She was looking all around at new sites and hearing new noises. I thought it was veyr cute that she was so alert. I did not, however, think it was so cute when we got to mom's house and she screamed for 40 minutes like I've never heard her scream before. Apparently, she got overstimulated...this caused her to get stressed out and resulted in a lot of gas. I felt very bad for her...it was not a good start to our trip.

The next day was better as well as the rest of the days to follow. We had a lot of visitors, which was very exhausting. Kaitlyn would get cranky in the evening and only wanted to be held by mommy. It's nice to be needed!!

The plane ride back was very different. I put a cover over the baby and she slept the whole way back so she was rested for daddy when we arrived in Minneapolis.

Kaitlyn at 3 days old...

Kaitlyn is perfect!! We can't stop looking at her and admiring her. Mommy, daddy, and nanna are very proud. She likes to have her clothes off...and she likes to poop when her clothes are off. We've had some very exciting diapering experiences so far!
