3 Months Old!

I can't believe Kate is already 3 months old!  Just recently Kate has discovered the TV and has learned to hold her pacifier in her mouth better.  We took some pictures beside her Koala in the morning, did some Christmas shopping, and then Kate went to Mrs. Betsy's house for a couple hours.  That evening we went over to Mimi and Papa's house (Justin's parents) to spend some time with Uncle Pat and Aunt Sharon.  I think I'm almost done with Christmas shopping, but wrapping everything is another story!

Church Christmas Party

Last night was our annual church Christmas Party.  I was so excited about Kate's outfit (a Christmas tutu), which she proceeded to spit up on twice before we left the house.  Oh well - I did a quick fix with a washcloth and some Febreeze.  Audrey and Peyton were there in their adorable Christmas outfits and we all had a picture made with Santa.  It's easy at this age because they don't hold up the line telling Santa what they want for Christmas!  The first picture is of Kate in her bubblesuit Nanny gave her - I think yesterday was the last day she will be able to wear it since she's getting so long.

Quick Doctor Visit

Last Wednesday Kate and I made a special trip to the doctor's office to have her ears checked.  We were concerned she might have had an ear infection but it turned out that they were all clear.  She weighed 10 lbs 12 oz and had a great time doing her aerobics on the examining table.  I think she likes the sound of the paper when she moves.  Check out those rolls!

Recuperating with Uncle Jordan

Jordan stopped by after one of his finals today to see Kate and I managed to sneak a picture of their busy afternoon... 

First Family Trip to Naples

Justin, Kate and I just got back from our first trip to Naples. Although it is a long drive (6 plus hours on a good day), Kate did great and slept most of the trip down and back! We left Thursday night around 5:30 pm and arrived in Naples at midnight. Friday morning, the three of us drove to Estero, FL where we did the usual outlet shopping and trip to Bass Pro. After lunch, we went to Justin's grandmother's house where we spent some time with Gaga, Scooby (Gaga's poodle), Aunt Linda and Uncle Mike.

Saturday, we met Steven and Lisa Osborne (Justin's friends) for lunch at Chilis and then went out to the Evers (Justin's grandparents) for dinner. Justin's Uncle Larry, Aunt Laurie, and cousins Beth, Erica, and Emmalee (Beth's little girl) were also there and got to meet Kate.  Emmalee gave Kate a pair of antlers and I think Kate loves them. :)

Sunday we went to church where several people commented "Kate looks like an Evers". We had a great time seeing all the family and I'm so thankful we had a safe trip.

Preparing for Christmas

Last weekend Kate and I went to my parent's house since Justin was hunting at the coast.  Kate "helped" my dad put up the Christmas tree and posed for a couple pictures with her snowgirl.
