Happy 2nd Birthday, Katie Kates!

Katelyn Hanna is the big TWO!
Our grand-dolly, Kate is celebrating the anniversary of her arrival into our lives today. It's been two busy years already. It has been such a blessing to watch her grow and change and learn. She is a great little sister to Rowan and a great big sister to Evie.
A lot of the time she is goofy. Harlan was wondering how our "Kiwi" son-in-law felt about his daughter being a "Limey". Sweet silly girl!

She's getting so big!






















She has always been only a step or two behind Rowan in trying to do stuff that he does. She's been trying to ride his bike since she could barely walk in the yard. She now has her own! And a Rapunzle doll with a matching pretty purple riding dress. I think Katie is a cross between Tinker Belle and Rapunzle. She has an adventurous streak for sure. Sweet and a little spunky.










She can practice having tea
Har and I got her this Fisher Price tea set. It teaches manner, shapes, and numbers and sings with a British accent. Katie will be ready to sit and have a cup o' tea with Gremmy and Granmum next time she visits Oregon.

No practice needed in the CUTE department
Happy Birthday Cutie-Katie!
We love you!!!

Aw thanks Mom! :) I really really really wish I had a pilot's license... and a private jet... and a babysitter to be with the kids while I fly... or a private pilot! ... Oregon is just too far away from here.

Miss you, love you, you all are in our thoughts today :) So far it's been a good day apart from the birthday girl being sad about naptime ;)
