The Expressions of Katelyn

Apple Holler

We went to Apple Holler with some friends from the ward last weekend and had fun picking some yummy apples.

My constant mess

Katelyn is a doll but she makes so many messes...especially in her room. Here are some pictures of her today in her mess of a room.


notice all the headbands and books in the background that I am constantly cleaning up.

Week with the Fryer's

Craig's family came into town a couple of weeks ago and we had a lot of fun the week they were here.



We went to the Botanic Gardens

Kate's first train ride

The architectural boat tour (it was awesome)




The white sox game (we would have liked to go to a cubs game instead but they were out of town the week they were here)






Millenium Park

In front of the Art Institute of Chicago

Zonked on our train ride home



My birthday and we're out to lunch

Her aunt Taryn says she has good genes

We got to go see Wicked and it was awesome. If anyone wants to go I will go again...anytime!

It took us a week to recover from all of our early starts and late nights. Thanks for coming Fryer's. We had a great time!

Kate's 9 months

We went in to take some pictures yesterday and it was so awful. Every time I go to do pictures it goes so well and she's so good. When I have to pick just one or two pics it's hard cause there are so many cute ones...not this time. She cried the whole time which was really weird. She was so upset and she didn't take any good pictures. This one is the only one that looked o.k.

She was totally fine and playing with the other kids as soon as our session was over.


Katelyn really is growing up. At 9 months here are a few things she's doing and loves.
-claps her hands
-hits to show her excitement (I know weird)
-stands sometimes by herself
-likes to play with kids
-gets into everything
-tries to climb out of her crib
-laughs more often
-teething
-waves hi and bye (sometimes)
-refuses to eat baby food
-throws tantrums already
-loves to empty all her clothes out of her drawer's
-starting to get clingy
-likes to cuddle with her blankets now when she goes to sleep
She's a joy!
