What's my name again?

Well, it happened. Sunday, for the first time ever, Kathryn muttered the sounds, "momomomomomo". Brad is in total denial. All the way through Wal-Mart last night, Kathryn was riding in the cart saying, "momomomomo" and Brad was pushing her saying, "dadadadadada". It was pretty entertaining. :o)

Kathryn did officially start crawling on Friday (Jan. 20). Yeah!! She is trying to pull up on stuff, but she usually just ends up falling down, hitting her head, and screaming for the next two minutes. She has been pretty fussy lately, and I'm hoping that it's due to some little white things trying to push their way desperately through her sore little gums. And, what a relief to know that after these two pop through, only 18 more to go :o/!

I did have a realization this past week that you all may be interested to know. I am short. Yes, that is it. I have known this for some time now, but did not know how short I really was until the other day I "ran" into the grocery store for a couple of things (ran is in quotes, because there is really no such thing as doing anything quickly with a baby). I decided I would leave Kathryn buckled in her seat, and just take her whole seat into the store with me. When I got in the grocery store and put her seat up on top of the cart, I could not see past it. Yes, seriously. I had to look to either side of it. I ran into at least 3 displays. It was very embarrassing. People kept looking at me and smiling, like they felt really sorry for me. One man even offered to reach the peanut butter for me when he saw me standing on the bottom shelf to reach it. I guess Brad is going to have to do the grocery shopping from now on! YES! (Haha, BP!! Your favorite thing to do ;o)
Kathryn: "Finally!! Now that all of these ribbons are untied, and my bumper pad is totally off, maybe I can get some rest!"


After getting a little tired of sitting in the bouncy seat, Kathryn discovers a brand new way to play with it!

Love hearing updates about sweet little Kathryn. Glad you posted....I have missed our "conversations" lately.

Ok your story about the grocery store was SO funny! I needed that laugh. Though I am taller than you, I really am not that much taller than you, so I can identify some. But honestly....I think you are the perfect height! You wouldn't be Micah if it were any different!

I'd begun to question your dedication to the world of blogger, but your most recent post and comment on my own blog have shown me that you've really gone nowhere... you've just been living

nice to hear from you again

LOL. If it's any consolation, even I struggle with seeing over the cart sometimes ... and I'm 6'3"!
