The Panty Chronicles continue

Kate now sings the little mermaid "Ahhh ahh ahh..." song every time she puts on her panties. She will pull down her pants to show them to anyone. I certainly didn't teach her that. I wish I could blame it on Kevin, but he's out of the country. :(
The other day, Cinderella was feeling a bit sad because Kate always picks the Little Mermaid. Kate whips off her PJ's and diaper, shakes her booty a bit, and rather coquettishly asks the Cinderella panties: "You like my bum?" It was hard to stifle my snickering as Cinderella replied that she did, indeed, like Kate's bum.
So Kate told her, "You be a good girl, Cindewewa" (Kate has trouble with r's and l's. This could be bad because I really want to name my next child Raul (No, I'm not pregnant). But I digress), "and tomorrow you can be on my bum."
Cinderella can hardly wait.

More Summer

We spent the 4th at my parents' cabin and brought Sid and Krissie and Garrett with us!

Kate loved this box all summer. I finally got rid of it, but managed to distract her with couch forts. In time, she forgot about the box, until just now. She saw the picture and is mourning its loss again.

We put Grandpa's pool to good use.

Zoo with Miss Angie, Elsa and Lainy.

Roaring Springs with Darin! I know, pretty sad that this is the only picture I got, in the car all ready to go home.

We watched the BYU game with some friends who have horses, and one of the girls was nice enough to give Kate a ride!

To a summer day...

I'm going to try to cram our summer into a couple of posts. Here goes!

We went to my 10 year high school reunion! It was really fun to see old friends and reminisce. I didn't take nearly as many pictures as I should have, but here are a few.

Nichole, me and Rian

Us and Abby and Nick. Oddly enough, my best friend from kindergarten (who moved away around 2nd grade) ended up marrying a guy that went to high school with me!

Me, Meg, Megan & Rian

Berkley is about to show Kate where her cookie stash is.

Faith on the move

Faith started crawling a few weeks ago! I realize I had forgotten what it is like to have a crawler, how fast they move, and what they are willing to put in their mouth. Faith also climbed up the stairs yesterday, something I didn't have to deal with with Kate. Faith is sure enjoying her independence. She loves scavenging under the dinner table and sampling the various cords and outlets. Luckily, Kate is quick to tattle on her :)

Who looks like whom?

Kate


Mike

So you think you can dance? I KNOW I can dance.

My new niece Anberlin!

Proud parents Greg and Jacqui

I like blackberries!

I don't like asparagus.

Mike is home!!

Mike's job sent him to Italy for a week, and he got back in the wee hours of Saturday morning! We were SO excited to have him home! (not excited enough to go pick him up from the airport, though. His kind father did that for us :) Thanks Bill!)

Mike had to work most of the time he was there, but he and a group of co-workers did get to visit some ruins on their last day.

He got a lot of great shots of the ruins and the countryside, but, unfortunately, the only close up of Mike was him testing out an ancient commode. Nice.
