We did a little bit of traveling during spring break … we went to  Boots and Banty’s, enjoyed time with cousins, pretty weather,  picnics, baby calf’s, planting flowers, tea party’s, dinner with Uncle  Rooster and Aunt Courtney,  over all a very nice relaxing week …

Our sweet Katelyn Jane … She is such a happy girl … and her happiness is contagious … I hope it stays that way :).  At 6 months she is 80% for height and 85% for weight.  She is sitting up.  She loves her vegetables.   She still thinks she needs a bottle between 2 & 4 am …. Mommy is trying hard to break this habit.  She thinks big sister Ellie is the funniest person in the world.  She is a daddy’s girl.  (but at 6 1/2 months said mama first)   :)   She is such a joy and blessing.  I feel so blessed to get to be the mom to our two wonderful girls, and I thank God for it everyday !  We love you Katelyn Jane !

A Much Needed Swing Set
