My little monster...


Well, Katie turned TWO yesterday. I really can't believe it. I don't really feel older because of it, it's just weird to think of her being in our lives for two whole years--not that I remember what it was like before she was here. After the crazy big bash from last year we decided on a little party this time. Grammy and Grandpa came out from UT and Sarah and Adam and best-cousin Talia came; and we ate out on our 10th floor patio. It was lots of fun.



Katie is the craziest child I know. We love her because; 1) She is such a little mommy. She loves her Baby and Emma (dolls) and takes good care of them. She got a doll bed from Grandma, so now they can go to bed when she does. She lays their bottles in there with them, hopefully their teeth don't rot out. 2) She also has more energy then me and Mark put together (is that saying much?). When we go for walks she likes to run "like Mama", and wags her little bottom as she does. 3) Every night we have been reading from a children's Book of Mormon or Bible. Now Katie reads it to us. She reads the whole book and points out one thing on each page; "baby Jesus", "liahona", "thunder" (when Christ died). And lastly, 4) we love her because she is more stubborn and independent then me. She can do anything by herself, including crazy twisty ladders at the park, or swimming in the pool (after a few times of going under she lets me help there).




HAPPY BIRTHDAY KATIE VIRGINIA!

Oh, I love seeing these pictures and reading about her! :) She is adorable!!! And I love the fact that she'll give you a run for your money in the "stubborness and independence" area!
