Good Things Come In Small Packages.

Katie may be small but she's tough! Luckily her big brother is very tolerant and doesn't even get mad when she tackles him. He puts up with a lot, but then he really seems to adore her. Today he wanted to play outside, but only if Katie could go too. Gotta love that.

Thursday At The Park

Amazingly, Katie was full of energy today. After all, she did wake up, wanting to play and talk non-stop, at 4:30 a.m. So unfair. There was no talking her into going back to sleep either.

Thankfully she was a little slower than usual on the play equipment at the park, so I didn't have to do quite as much running. Here she is... hopping like a bunny toward the slide.

Green t-shirt from Gymboree (a bday gift from Jenelle last year). Gap jean shorts, Target sandals.

Katie Hates Hats Too.

Nope, it's not just lovely hair ribbons and barretts that Katie hates. It's pretty much anything that I place in her hair or on her head. As you can see here ---> she is mortified that we even tried. Exactly half a second after this photo was taken, that hat was laying in the dirt.

Please note the stain on her right sleeve from when I had to wrestle a cherry from her mouth (she is FAST!) I managed to get the cherry, she managed to keep the pit, which she promptly handed to me when she realized it wasn't very yummy. Whew.

This lovely ensemble was chosen by Auntie Terri , who is the most awesome vintage store shopper there ever was. The shorts are Gymboree and the top is by Sparkle. Hat is Janie and Jack.

Katie REALLY Hates Barrettes

Did we mention how much Katie hates getting her hair styled? I think that is an understatement. All I did was place a little white barrette in her hair and this is what happened. Those are REAL TEARS, by the way. They lasted about 20 seconds.

Anyway, it was a pretty boring day at home. Sadly, the highpoint was our trip to Costco where we had frozen yogurt on the way out. I don't have to tell you that this little shirt is in the laundry covered in vanilla goodness.

Gymboree cotton top from the By the Seashore layette line, Children's Place ruffled capris, Baby Gap pink sandals. Oh, and the bow that launched all the tears you can blame on Jenelle because she made it.
