I have had a WONDERFUL summer. I am so sad to see it come to end so soon. Here are some of the highlights of the summer...
Our great friends, Laura and Steven got married in the beginning of June. I was so thrilled to get to be the maid of honor!! Our whole family was in the wedding--Bill was a groomsman and Kaitlyn was pulled in a wagon! Here is Kaitlyn below looking beautiful...
here is me with the beautiful bride and the other bridesmaids. Such a great day!
Kaitlyn turned 1 at the end of June. She had a fun birthday party! I cleaned out one of our spare bedrooms and turned it into Kaitlyn's playroom. This will also be her future bedroom. She loves having a big playroom!
Fourth of July was a lot of fun at my mom and Tony's house. We got to swim and eat BBQ with family and in the evening we watched fireworks with family and friends in the neighborhood. Its the best firework show ever...and even better we got to watch them with family and friends! Kaitlyn even stayed up to watch the fireworks. She loved them!
My 10 year reunion was also this summer...this picture looks terrible because I couldn't figure out how to make it any bigger either... Kaitlyn's gotten to have a lot of fun this summer...we have had play dates with friends at the zoo, gone to story times at the library, went to the splash pad a few times (and still are going with a friend this next week!), played at the play area in Sooner mall, gone swimming, ran through sprinkler, and had several lunch dates with her dadda! Below are a few pics of fun outings...Friday Bill was off work and we decided to drive to Seminole to the Children's museum and had a blast there with Kaitlyn! We knew she would be too young for most of the things there and probably won't remember it, but she sure smiled and laughed a lot! We think she had a blast!! She thinks she's a big kid...
Its been awesome to see how much she's grown over the summer. At the beginning of the summer, Kaitlyn could walk, but was still pretty wobbly when walking. Now she is running and can keep from falling. She also didn't have any top teeth at the beginning of summer, now she has 4!! She went from drinking formula in bottles and eating pureed food to drinking whole milk in sippy cups and eating the same food that we eat. I was glad to help her with this because she didn't want to chew anything and it would all come up..suddenly one day she decided it was pretty good stuff!
She's also become very girly. Probably because she sees how I react to things. She loves watching me put on makeup and loves when I take my blush brush and tickle her face with it. She loves jewelry and will put it on me and say "pretty!" She loves flowers and picks all the dandelions that grow in our backyard each day. When she sees bugs or crumbs on the floor she says "EEeeeew!" and points to it.
Now she can repeat just about anything we say. I can say, "Kaitlyn I love you." and she'll smile and say "I love you!" here is a video of her...
She also is really good at giving kisses. Oh and she's getting very attached to me and Bill and cries when we leave to go somewhere. so its gonna be extra hard on both me and her when I go back to work. :( I am sure I will cry too.
And here is a video of Kaitlyn helping me with the dishes. We are starting her early on doing chores...ha!
Here is a cute video of Kaitlyn and our dog Jacey playing together...they sure love each other...

Recent photo shoot...
Here are Kaitlyn's 1 year pics. We got some family pics too. We have used several different photographers since Kaitlyn was born and we love them all but its nice to have a variety of different styles. My friend Stephanie did these photos. We had fun taking these in bricktown. She is the same photographer that took pics of Kaitlyn when she was 3 months old as well.
These are just a FEW of my many favorites!
