21 Month Update!

Sorry, it has been a few weeks since I last blogged. Ya know, it just isn’t a priority these days and while I usually write it in the mornings at work, the mornings have just been flying by.

Moving on…Katie turned 21 months last Wednesday and is on her way to turning 2 years old officially on August 19th, 2 more months!! At this stage in her life, there are so many little and big things going on in and around her that it is near impossible to keep track. She has not grown much in weight but she’s definitely grown a little in height. Oh and that little brain of hers is helping build a much bigger heart.

 

She is able to answer 2 questions about herself when asked what her name is and how old she is – “Ka-tee” and she’s “thoo” almost…haha… She sings and dances constantly and loves to play hide-and-go-seek. She usually likes to be the seeker and will cover her eyes against the wall and count from 1 thru 10 randomly…haha… She also loves to watch little people her age perform. We attended the Pacific Rim Festival on Sunday and she had the best time of her life! She enjoyed every minute of the dances with huge smiles on her face and followed along with arm gestures whenever she could. It was the cutest thing!!

Things worth documentation:

• First visit to Art Beasts Friday, 5/7. Explored her artistic side. 

• 
  
  First Amgen Tour fair Sunday, 5/16. Loved ringing her cow bell and cheering on the riders! 

• Babysat by Auntie Fil and hung out with Cousin Tyrus Monday, 5/17. Dreamt of them that night :o)

• First travels in Nevada, Reno, Carson City and South Lake Tahoe Friday, 5/21. A chance at playing snow again and again!

• Biggest tantrum ever on Sunday, 5/23. Did not want to leave the festival!
• First pee in the toilet Sunday, 5/23. Rewarded with her favorite sweet, ice cream!
• Decided on preschool Monday, 5/24. Bradshaw Christian starting Sept. 1st!
• Second pee in the toilet Tuesday, 5/25. Are we on a roll?

And so, the journey continues in June: family trip to Angel Island with my family, multiple baby showers including ours, and plenty of fun in the sun, if it ever prevails over these unwelcome clouds this time of year!
