better late than never, right?!
Our sweet baby Kathryn turned 3 at the end of July!! I still can't believe it!! We had a wonderful birthday weekend, Nana, Aunt Laur, & Bampa all came to join in on the celebrations! I've give a quick little update on my peanut & then show you the pics of our fun times ;)
Kathryn is now 34.5" tall (10%) & 38# (45%), she has grown SO much since her last birthday.
She is really starting to come out of her shell. In fact, when we are out together in public- people usually peg her as the outgoing one and Quinn as the shy one! She is still a little reserved in school but is becoming braver by the day.
Kathryn is SO SWEET. She is just genuinely happy to be a part of things, and grateful for everything. "Mommy, thank you for washing my tutu!"She is also a great cheerleader, and is always happy for others "Great Job Quinn!" (at tennis). Mommy, I love your new nail polish. Mommy, I love your dress, can I wear that one day when I grow big?"
BUT at the same time, she is learning to stand up for herself and no longer always lets big sis get her way. She has learned to push Quinn's buttons when she wants. And she also has had a slight issue with eating non-edible objects...lately she loves tormenting Quinn like this:
Quinn: Kathryn, can I have that toy?
Kathryn: Only if you pay me money first (no clue where she gets this!)
Quinn: here is some (pretend/invisible) money
Kathryn: Now I ate it, I need more money if you want the toy!!
Happy Birthday Sweet Pea!! We love you SO very much!

| Kathryn was SO Proud to be sporting her very own, new night gown. Bethany brought it to her for her bday and got the perfect size, Kathryn is not happy unless they are long & touching her toes!! Bedtime is not complete without a fancy night gown, pink snuggly doggie, and princess sophia! |

| out shopping with mommy before the visitors got here |
 |
| Nana MUST make pancakes while she is here, Quinn wouldn't have it any other way! |
 |
| Kathryn's new best friend. This Cinderella is bigger than her! But KK drags her around the house, singing the shalaka do song from the movie, sometimes she will get her up into bed & snuggle at rest time |
 |
