Kate turns One (month)!

Well, Kate is officially one month old! If you count from her actual due date she's 1 week old... does this mean that she's an average 2.5 weeks? Not sure how you calculate that.. anyway, here's some pics and some stuff we've learned about our new little girl!

First... here I am on my due date. No maternity clothes!! Yay! The pants don't quite button yet, but soon, SOON! Ok, so technically they DO button, but I can only imagine this is what men with beer guts look like when they button their pants. :) I think I get clearance to start running again in 2 weeks - I can't wait!

Kate's 1st month likes: The swing, the bouncy seat, and anything that rocks, swings, or vibrates. She also likes dancing to Ska, reading, playing with her mirror, shopping (its unbelievably calming.. to both of us!), eating, visits with Nanna and Grandma,the sound of running water (unfortunately this is too costly for her to enjoy often), NubbaWub cat, and dates with Dad (see below).

Her NubbaWub cat - he's such a lifesaver. She likes to hold onto the cat while working on the pacifier.

Bagel dates with Dad.


Her dislikes: Diaper changes and baths (see below). She also dislikes when she loses control of her arms and whacks herself in the face - but who doesn't? She dislikes being buckled into the car seat, but is happy once the car starts.

Baths - see diaper changing below. Apparently she takes after Foster in this regard.


And the animals seem to be adjusting well....

This is for me, right?
