6-Months-Old and Trying to Crawl

Catie just turned 6-months and is constantely getting up on her hands and knees. She rocks back and forth, trying so hard to crawl.

I love when she falls asleep holding her ducky.

On your mark, get set...

This is the first time I ever tickled her.

Check out her fine motor skills!

This video is really long, but we think it's sort-of funny. She just does it again and again and again.

Fishing Hall of Fame

This weekend we drove out to Hayward, WI to visit the National Freshwater Fishing Hall of Fame. The big musky in the background of this first picture is a "Shrine to Anglers" and is 4 1/2 stories tall. We were able to hike up it and stand in its' gaping jaw. The museum also has over 50,000 historical fishing artifacts. I actually thought it was pretty interesting and Chris had the time of his life, of course. The baby just starred at everything and was fascinated the most by the bench we sat on (she loved its' rough texture and spent a long time rubbing her hands on it).
Chris and his bass.

Chris thinks that this picture is so funny. Guy humor I guess.

Latest Tricks

Caitlyn has been lifting up on all fours this past week. She makes it look like she's doing push-ups.

Catie can also sit up by herself. We still use the boppy so she doesn't tip over as much.

She's sound asleep in this picture. Her waterfall soother continues to be her favorite toy and she holds it even in her sleep.

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.
