The Island

Sarah has season passes to the Island and so with her pass I can get in cheaper and Katelynn is free. So, a few weeks ago we all went. We thought that it opened at 10 nope it's 11. We hung out for 20 min before they let us in. Katelynn had a great time the only problem was that Katelynn can't ride any of the rides, even with an adult she has to be I think 48", she is close to that but not quite. Maybe next year. So, we stayed in the kiddie pool area and went down the lazy river, ate some lunch and came home for nap time. We wouldn't be able to stay all day there she would go bananas.

Our pool

After thinking about this for a week back in June we decided to get an above ground pool. It is 12' x 33". It is a nice size for everyone to have fun in.

Stroller Time

The one toy that Katelynn loves when she goes over to Tara and Brynne's to play is their stroller. She just loves to race back and forth across the living room with it. So, Tara and Brynne went through all of their toys and decided that they were too big for stollers and so they gave it to Katelynn. SHE LOVES IT!!! I put some electrical tape on it so it wouldn't fold up all the time as she was racing around the house. She also doesn't like to put anything in it. If we put a baby or stuffed animal in it she looks at it walks around to the front and tosses it on the floor. Soon she might want a baby in it.

Scratches Bumps and Bruises

This week Katelynn has gotten more bumps and bruises than ever. Wednesday we were out in the front yard I was doing yard work and she was roaming around checking everything out. At one point I looked back at her and she was headed for a palm tree leave that had fallen and I went back to cutting roses. Seconds later she was screaming and crying with a huge scrap up her arm so that was the end of yard work for the day.

That same day while I was cooking dinner she learned how to push and then climb up onto the kitchen chairs. She was looking at something on the kitchen counter then leaned over to grab something and fell off the chair getting a huge goose egg on her forehead.

This morning Ben put her on our bed to play and her ran to the window at the head of the bed and hit the window sill with her top lip and got a fat lip. Somewhere in between she also got a scratch across her left eye brow and I don't know how that one happened.

She learned how to climb up onto the couches today and she is so excited about that one since daddy usually keeps the remotes on the top of the couches. I guess we will have to put them away now.
