Yummy Toes

Starting Solids

Yesterday we started Caitlyn on rice cereal. She wasn't sure what to think of it.

This video is really dark, but it's another cute one of Catie playing with her daddy.

Studying for Finals.

Cooling off on a hot day.

First Time Camping

This weekend we went camping at William O'Brien State Park on the St. Croix River (about an hour and a half north of Minneapolis). It's the first time Catie has been camping and she loved it!

Catie slept with us in our small 2-person tent. We have never had her sleep with us before. Chris and I just clung to the edges of the tent and let her sprawl out in the middle. We're lucky that she's such a good sleeper.

We took this toy that we borrowed from the Iversons (thanks Brittany!). Caitlyn loves it because she's able to see everything that's going on around her. The hat that she's wearing in this picture belonged to Chris when he was her age.

Making Lots of Noise

Catie has been saying "Baa", "Gaa", "Maa", and "Daa" for a few weeks now. She's quite the little talker.

This is a cute video of the baby laughing with her daddy.

She likes her mommy too.

Baby Mood Swings

Catie rolls her tongue almost every time she smiles. It's really cute.

Ready to give up on the day.

This is the 1st time Caitlyn sat all by herself. Most of her weight is on her hands and she's practically folded in half, but she's doing it. :)

Always Learning New Things

This video really makes Chris and I laugh. The poor cow sounds like it's in pain. She chewed on the pig next and actually broke it by chewing on it so much. It no longer makes any sound.

This toy frustrates her sometimes because she can't get to the balls.

Caitlyn doesn't always use only her mouth to play with her toys. She does a pretty good job using her hands and fingers too. I'm so impressed with her in this video.



But of course Catie's favorite "toys" are her mom and dad.

Catie sleeps on her stomach, just like her daddy.

I can't imagine that this is comfortable.

Incoming Call from the Mother Ship?

We get a kick out of watching Caitlyn sporadically space out when she's in the ExerSaucer.

Trying to Crawl

I started filming this because I thought it was funny how she rolled over on top of her toy. But then she pushed up on her feet, which I had never seen her do before. Caitlyn's trying so hard to crawl. I also enjoy listening to her try to talk.
