Washing the truck

Getting the bucket ready - have to have a lot of bubbles

Don't forget the tires
All done - what a great job. Katie is such a good little helper. Now if I can only get her to do the laundry.

Day at the Beach - Point Pleasant

Katie discovered sea shells - "there's another one, there's another one" Every last little one - no shell was too small for Katie
The water felt good on your feet - it was a hot day. Katie was a little hesitant but started to enjoy herself. We would chase the waves into the ocean and then run as they tried to get us.



The ocean was a little rough that day. I think we will go back when its a little cooler and not so rough.

Visit with Nana - Great Adventure

I took the day off Tuesday and we went to Great Adventure. It was a bit hot but we had a lot of fun. Katie amazed Nana by climbing all the road bridges, going on rides by herself and jammin' to the Wiggles.

7-9-08

Well hello again, thought I would change things up a little and give you a current photo/event. Katie and I drove out to Long Island yesterday to visit my family. My parents are up from NC so it was a treat to get everyone together under the same roof.

We celebrated Zachary's 5th birthday - he is getting so big. Katie had been practicing saying "happy birthday" the whole way out to LI. She also likes to say " surprise".

Well we had a great time, it was a long day but she handled it very well. Tomorrow my parents will come to NJ for a few days to spoil Kaite, she can't wait.

Easter

OK - for those of you who know me - you know how I feel about dresses. Well I had nothing to do with this - I am trying to raise Katie a fine young girl - I tried to be all cheerful and happy about putting a dress on but as you can see she wanted no part of it.
As of recent her Aunt Cindy bought her 2 nice little sun dresses which she has worn without the tears. (Preferably - put me in jeans and a t-shirt).

Snow 2007

Katie is all bundled up to play in the snow. Her first snow fall, more like a dusting. She thought it was cold and didn't enjoy it much until she realized she could be pulled around like a princess. She loved her sled and kept asking for more.

Visiting Nana & Papa

Another trip to NC to visit Nana & Papa. Katie is looking rather stylish in her 2 piece bathing suit. What you don't see is her screaming when we actually try to put her into the pool. Thankfully she is now learning to enjoy the water.

Katie and her Nana walking along the water in NC. The neusse river I believe. They were feeding the ducks.
