Life and stuff- with pictures!

Ah- so it's check in time huh? How is life in the Lewis house? Things here are settling into a predictable pattern -which when you have a 'high spirited' kid (Tim's description which fits her perfectly!) is a good thing! She's totally into whatever is going on- whether completely happy or devastated and sad, or insanely angry. There's not much grey area with her, but we kinda think that's a good thing! Nothing is more sad than a kid with a beige personality :)

Mostly Kat is happy, we were trying to put a percentage on it- so like 85% of the time she's happy, which honestly is more than I see out of most kids her age so yay!

She's sprouting up SO fast! She's getting tall and putting on baby fat in all the cute places- she has roly poly legs, a round little tummy, and chubby cheeks. She's so fun to hug and kiss, and unless she's preoccupied with her own little games she'll actually let you cuddle her for awhile which is SO sweet! She just curls up in my lap, rests her cheek against mine and pats me. That's her new expression of affection- she pats you. I realized she totally got this from me as everytime I pick her up I pat her back and hug her, so now she just pats you and gives you kisses. It's the sweetest thing ever.

She's still not walking, she just hovers on the border of wanting to do it and being too scared. Truly any day now, but who knows with Kat? :o) She's her own kid, and she'll do things when she's good and ready. Honestly I feel like she could wait awhile, she's just now starting to get fewer bumps and bruises from crawling and cruising. She has, however picked up a new reckless behavior- Climbing. And not just climbing up, but stacking her toys (I kid you not!) and trying to climb up them to get to stuff that we've put out of her reach. I've had to pull her down from some rather precarious situations- so we can't turn our backs for a minute!

Tim is working overtime tonight, so it's just me and the Kitten hanging out. She's missing her Daddy though, she knows he's supposed to be around about 5ish, and at 5:45 she was inconsolably crying- so I called Tim and as soon as she heard him she smiled and kissed the phone- once we took the phone away she started crying again- it was so pitiful and sad!

She's doing better now though :) We went to the playground and played on the swings and that fixes everything.

Now here are some pictures from the last week:


Hiding behind the baby like a coward! LOL
