Lady Bug

Kate is going to be a lady bug for Halloween. She looks even cuter, when it's not over her Mariner Moose shirt and Pooh Bear shorts (I know, what a combo!) Hopefully I'll get even better pictures this weekend. A smile compromise for the camera.

Me catching her running back to the picture to look at the picture. A genuine smile!

And now a little lady bug story. Normally Kate is asleep when we leave for work in the morning. But when I was in the shower this morning she woke up all upset. Doug went in, and couldn't at first figure out what she wanted. Pacifier, check. Blankies, check. Finally, he asked, "Are you saying, 'Wings?' " Kate, "Yeah . . . I want my wings. I want my wings." Doug convinced her that she should go back to sleep, and then she could wear her costume when she wakes up. How cute!

"smile"

This is what Kate does when I ask her to smile for the camera. Yea.

2 month, 4 month self portrait

2 year, 3 month self portrait

So it seems, not only have I not posted and entry in 2 months, it also seems this is the ONLY picture I took in September. Good thing it was a good one. Best I can figure, the rest of the month was overwhelmed with the start of work and 1st trimester exhaustion. Due date: May 13.
