Just like Mom & Dad

Katherine Claire is very in to imitating everything Mom and Dad do with baby Annalise, including toting her baby around in a carrier. She spends much of her day strolling her babies around the house - they often go to Lowe's and Hobby Lobby. Katie Claire certainly has a very vivid imagination. She feeds them in the baby doll highchair and puts them to sleep in her dolly pack n' play.

When any of the real baby equipment is vacant, you can be sure it will not stay that way long. I constantly find babies strapped in to Annalise's car seat and swing and they are often found enjoying the activity mat as well.

Katie Claire & Anya at the Playground


This is Anya and Katie playing at the church playground around the corner. Anya lives just down the street from us. They are just a couple of months apart and they play really well together - sharing and taking turns. Anya has a little brother named Steven, who is just a little over a month older than Annalise. It's nice that the girls have such great friends so close.

Out on our morning walk

Now that the weather is nice, the girls and I have been going on walks in the morning. Annalise sits in the Baby Bjorn while Katherine Claire enjoys a stroller ride to the lakes. When we get to the lakes she gets to walk by herself like a big girl - Mommy's intent is to wear her out for a morning nap!
