Teddy Bear Thursday - 40 Weeks

Forty weeks. Katie is now nine months. We love her bright eyes and playful personality. She is so much fun to watch. She loves to dance, wave hello (on her own terms), play outside and she is starting to high five.

Check out her new top teeth. She now has four teeth.

Teddy Bear Thursday - 39 Weeks

Thirty-nine weeks. Katie is getting ready to walk. She is pulling up on everything, transferring from one object to another without going to the ground first, letting go and not falling for at least 10 seconds and walking around the coffee table, while holding on of course. Watch out world.

Enjoying the unusually nice January weather.

Teddy Bear Thursday - 38 Weeks

Thirty-eight weeks. This week's picture was taken in Baytown, TX with Katie's PaPa. PaPa is Katie's great-grandfather, Dean's grandfather. We had a great visit and really enjoyed our time together.

Teddy Bear Thursday - 37 Weeks

Thirty-seven weeks. This job is getting harder. Katie does not want to sit still for anything. Here are a few of the attempts that I got along the way to our final picture. I am going to have to come up with a different plan for next time.

Either one of them was crawling away or it was both.

Hugs with Big Brother. She was actually enjoying this.

Mom says, "Austin, that's not a real smile, try laughing." And this is what mom gets.

Pretty cute. These could work.

Now let's wrestle the bear. Enough of this serious picture stuff.

See you next time.
