Eskimo Pie
Our precious Katelyn Pie is getting so big...she's turning into an actual little person (funny how they do that!)! She eats three meals a day...has "conversations" with people - even if they are just little grunts, "ooooohs" and high pitch squeals...she's rolling all around and desperately trying to crawl...She wears shoes and socks...she has little friends at daycare...she has "likes" - peas, green beans, squash, chicken & rice, rice cereal, anything soft and fuzzy, bathtime - and "dislikes" - being strapped into her car seat and highchair, sitting down, carrots...she snores like a little old man...and she has a wardrobe better than my own :-) How can an almost 7-month-old seem so grown up? What happened to our tiny little helpless baby that needed us 24/7?...sigh...deep breath...sigh, again...
A friend told us recently that when you start feeding your baby solid foods their noses take on the color of whatever they are eating...looks like Miss Pie is eating a bit too much squash...whatchathink? :)

Christmas, feet and a little humor
Katelyn's first Christmas was great! We got to spend the entire Christmas weekend hanging with family, doodling around town and eating like champs...it was a great way to spend the holidays!!
Katelyn had her 6 month check up and she is pretty much in the 50th percentile on everything. She weighs just over 16 pounds and is good and healthy. She still loves to suck on anything she can get her little hands on...especially her feet and mommy's hair!! Speaking of hair...don't let her get near yours because she'll yank and pull it and get it all caught up and wrapped around her little chubby, slobbery hands...and it HURTS!
She's been eating her veggies like a pro but she still doesn't care for any fruit...maybe that means she got Tim's genes and she won't like sweets!!
Just in the past couple of days she looks so grown up. You can tell that she really wants to crawl...and she's getting there! She's also babbling more and smiling all the time! This really is such a fun age!
Opening her first Christmas present!
One of her favorite things to do
Playing with her look-a-like doll Grammie made her!

Plumber Katelyn :)

The most precious thing happened...
...And we actually caught it on camera!!! Check out my mad (bad) camera skills below. Sorry for the wobbly camera action but I was having a hard time not laughing with Katelyn :)
Ahhh, I'm so thankful for baby laughter!!!

Miss Pie Update
Phew, finally back to blogging!!! We have been so busy with work (Lindsey started a new job mid September), family activities and our first road trip with Miss Pie that we haven't had the time or energy to write a new post...but here we go!
Let's see…I guess the best way to get you all caught up is by another "Katelyn is" list:
Katelyn...
• is laughing regularly
• is eating rice cereal (which she LOVES) before bedtime
• is trying new veggies (peas, green beans and squash so far) - I (Lindsey) tried to record her the first time we gave her peas, but, since I'm such a spaz with the camera, nothing turned up :(
• is loving her new high chair
• is drinking apple juice occasionally
• is putting her feet in her mouth
• has been sleeping in her own room for about a month

• watches the dogs when they run around like crazy animals

We took our first road trip with Katelyn to Gatlinburg for Thanksgiving and we almost had to rent a uhaul (kidding!) for everything we brought, but, Tim came to the rescue!! He is an expert packer and got everything packed away nice and neat in the Xterra...even the turkey frier!! It took us about 5.5 hours to get there and Katelyn slept most of the way! She was so good the entire time we were in G'burg...thank goodness because there were 18 of us under one big cabin roof!! Normally the Wilson side of the family get together the weekend before Christmas, exchange Dirty Santa presents and eat like maniacs! But this year, Thanksgiving worked out better for everyone...so we played a mean game of Dirty Turkey (we even had a Turkey Tree!), played Rock Band til the wee hours of the morning and still stuffed ourselves silly. And, of course, Katelyn was spoiled rotten by all her doting relatives!
Open wide!!
Obviously Daddy fed her :)
so precious!
She wasn't so sure about the green beans...
But, she decided she liked them after all.
I like squash, too!
She looks so mesmerized!
All packed for Gatlinburg!
The Dirty Turkey Tree
The Dirty Turkey players (with the Turkey Tree)
Katelyn with her Grandpa
Man, if that don't make your heart melt!
In front of her first Christmas tree
Lounging with the reindeer-bears
Smile!
Sweet little thing!

The Parade
Well, we found a heckofa deal on a Katelyn's first Halloween costume...nine bucks at the local kids consignment shop! Can't beat that for 20 minutes of enjoyment!!
Katelyn's Halloween parade was hilariously adorable! All the moms and two dads (Tim was sooo relieved to see another dad walk through the door) showed up at the daycare around 3:00 to start the festivities. We zipped our little ones into their costumes, took a bunch of pictures, then pranced our little characters in and out of each classroom for all to admire...or not really...none of the little kids in the other classrooms paid a bit of attention to us, but we all ooohed and awwwwed at each others kids, and that's all that matters! Katelyn's class consisted of two cows, a skunk, a hot red pepper and of course, a lion! They were all adorable and we're sooooo glad we participated! It was a great first "holiday" event to spend with our little booger.
Katelyn's a little unsure about her "helmet"
Her mane had the windblown look!
Here we are prancing throught the hallways!
Don't you just love the little PINK bow?!!
Check out that lion gut!
"Can we go now?!"
What a good Daddy to show up for the parade!
Mommy and her little lionette.
Lindsey didn't want to leave the pups out...but they would have rathered I did!
Tallie-lion!
Tucker-lion!
