Patrick is 9 months - WOW

Patrick is SUPER busy - I caught him on the first step to the second floor yesterday. Yes, the gate is up in the kitchen, he's too quick!

My favorite new thing is that he giggles like a chipmunk AND he rocks back and forth in the highchair in between bites, JUST like Elise did and thinks it's soooo cool.

Speaking of bites, he does not have teeth YET!?!?! But is waking in the night like he's busting them through.





And still doin' "the worm" - he pushes with his left leg, right one along for the ride. He DOES do 4-6 true crawls in a row, but then bellies down for "the worm" :)

Kidz in a Box - WHO NEEDS TOYS!!!

And Patrick looking real cute :)

AAAAAAAND the best way to end a birthday party...

...in a small bucket because you are so dirty you can't even make it to the bath (ie you are really tiny AND had a GREAT time)!!!

THE Cake for the "Castle", not Princess, Party

As soon as I showed her a picture of the cake I was going to make her, she decided that she was having a "castle party" - NOT the "princess party" she initially requested :) No professional cake, but it suited my three year old 10 x's over :) And the Kuhn in me made sure we had an EXTRA 12 cupcakes (compliments of Gamma) "just in case" - FYI we didn't even finish the cake! :)

Happy 3rd Birthday Elise Faith!!!!

Myyyyyyy how time flies...
Mother's Day (3 days old); 1 year; 2 year; THREE years old!!!

Growing, growing...

19.8 pounds and not even 9 months = new carseats! Elise "gave" hers to Patrick and "got" a new one - which she thinks is a birthday present :)


She looks soooo old to me in this one! ALMOST 3...keep posted for birthday pics!





His expression is a B-Bob/Uncle Kyle one here, a Solberg glimpse here and there :)
