Big Girl

Kate is growing and changing everyday. She has mastered crawling and loves to cruise around the house. Below are a few pics of "big girl" Kate!

When Kate crawls and stops her legs do this move....I call it the cheerleader hurkey!

Kate is also starting to eat more solid foods...be sure and take note of the food in her hair.

Kate is pulling up on anything she can get her hands on...here she is picking out a book before bedtime!

This is one of Kate's favorite toys....she loves the music and lights!

Go Cats

Today was the Sunflower Showdown (aka K-State vs. KU) football game. This is the fourth year we have gone to the game with our good friends Meaghan and Blake Briscoe (they are both KU grads) . This year we both have little ones for the first time but still made it to the game. Well the dads went to the game while Meaghan and I stayed with the kids but we did enjoy some pre-game tailgating. We had a great time and look forward to next year!

Kate and Graham the night before the BIG game!

Kate's Cousin Cole

Kate got to meet her cousin Cole this week. (Chad and Jenny Boisseau's son) Cole is about 15 months old and lives in Atlanta so we don't get to see him very often. We are so glad he was able to make a trip back to Kansas. Here are a couple of pics of the kids together!
