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...


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...

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...
