Aunt Leanne's Visit

My little sister, Leanne, has been one of Katie's biggest fans since before she was even born. When we told her I was pregnant she screamed and cried with joy. She loves Katie so much that she spent the night with us last week just to be here in the morning to watch Katie wake up (I must admit, she is awfully cute when she wakes up in the morning)! We had a great time grilling out on Friday night and then going for a walk and exploring the beautiful flowers and trees on Swarthmore's campus on Saturday. Thanks for being such a loving Aunt, Lea!

Bon appetit!

Katie has shown so much interest in our meals for the past few weeks that we decided to move things along a bit faster than we had originally planned and give her some solid food of her own! Her first non-liquid meal ever consisted of rice cereal, and she seemed to enjoy it. Maureen's sister Leanne has been visiting with us and it was fun to have her here for the festivities.

Teeth!

Katie got her first two teeth right around the time she turned 4 months old. As I mentioned in previous posts, I've had a hard time catching these teeth on camera because every time something comes close she grabs it and tries to put it in her mouth! Luckily, my sister Leanne managed to snap this photo. They don't look like much but boy do they hurt when she bites your finger!

Babymove

Since Katie has been born I've been waiting for her to grab her little feet with her little hands. I'm not sure why I think this "babymove", as I've come to call it, is so cute but I do! I just love to watch babies do this. She does it effortlessly now and even rocks from side to side. It's just as adorable as I thought it would be!

Wonderful Visit

After a long day in the car yesterday (9 1/2 hours!) we are home again in Pennsylvania. We had a wonderful trip to Maine and enjoyed all the sweet time we had with Andrew's family. Here are two pictures of Katie with her Maine Grandparents. As you can tell, she loved being with them!
