Sweet August Summertime!

Playing in the rain is summer to me and I am trying to let Katie enjoy the simpleness of playing in the rain. We twirled and laughed and had a good time, ok, maybe it really was a bit more for me than Katie at this point, but maybe one day she will remember her cray cray Mama playing in the rain like a goof!

We got Katie a pink inflatable pool and I have to say that I am more glad I bought it every day! We play outside a great deal! I enjoy getting out of the house when possible and not be around the TV all the time. Don’t get me wrong I am very glad to have Elmo in the house! An Elmo DVD has given the gift of a good long hot shower w/o interruption on more than one occasion! But I love it when Katie wakes up and the first thing on her mind isn’t a “buff” but “water please!” and outside we go to play in the pool!

Not Jake's favorite pictures but it is one of mine! HAHAHAHA!

The Harmon’s favorite August good time is Bleeckerfest! This was Katie’s first year to experience the fun and she made friends with everyone! K.C. Harmon Band made another appearance, instead of the full band it was more like an acoustic set w drums. Always a good time! John even let Katie wear his crown, for a bit!

More sleeping!

Mama's boots!

Goats, Family, and Trips! July, Oh My!

Katie’s words are coming fast! Most sound like what they should, however, she says Ish for Sam and buff for movie. Kinda funny, not sure why or how she picked that, but that is what it is. It is very clear, if you know the words!

Sesame Street is a new favorite, we only have two videos but she loves them. She will pick one out, hand it to you, say Mama, buff please, and promptly go and sit in her chair. Too cute!

Lovin' on her Sam! A favorite past time!

Ice Cream with our friend Ruthie!

I decorated Katie's room a bit more. I wanted her initials, so i cover wooden letters with sequins and buttons. I was quite proud that I followed through my my idea. I hope it is something she keeps up for a long while. I arranged the letters above her bed with her butterflies:)

My Sweet Sleepin Baby Girl!

Just a sweepin'!

Katie and I are headed down to AL/FL to visit family and I am a bit nervous, it is the longest trip we have taken her on, I will be by myself, I am a bit worried about her nap schedule, I am trying to just go with the flow…we will see how long that lasts.

Katie was a trooper! We made it down and back with no problems! I had to break out the laptop for a movie on the way back home, but she did so good!

We got to take a trip to Kennedy Acres! Gucchi and Prada (the goats) were very kind to allow us to feed them! So much fun! Hunter got to collect the eggs as well:)
