Motivation to Stand

noreply@blogger.com (Allison) — Wed, 04 Jul 2012 23:40:00 +0000

Catherine finally found the motivation needed to get her to stand up successfully on her own--Grandma has a new foster kitten! Catherine has practiced petting our cats, so she knows to be very gentle with this little one. They have played all evening and the kitten even comes over to the end of the box where Catherine is standing as if he's asking Catherine to play with him.

Block Play

noreply@blogger.com (Allison) — Tue, 03 Jul 2012 03:08:00 +0000

We pulled out some of the toys that I had when I was little and Catherine has been enjoying the stacking blocks.

Catherine is looking at the stack of blocks for the first time.

It immediately fell to the ground so she checked out all the blocks.

Figuring out how they work.

Finding the best block to push to get them all to fall.

Timber!

Yeah! Another stack.

Starting to fall!

Ouch! This time the blocks fell on her.

Sunday in Barron

noreply@blogger.com (Allison) — Tue, 03 Jul 2012 02:01:00 +0000

Lots of people came to visit on Sunday. Crystal and Bill, Ellen and Troy, Grandma Elaine, and Anita and Gary all came for lunch and a relaxing afternoon.

Grandma Elaine and Catherine Elaine together again.

This little piggy...

Snack break.

Buddies!

New vegetable of the day: corn on the cob.

Grandma bought Catherine a sprinkler ball. It was cold!

Swimming was more fun than running through the sprinkler, though.

Hanging with Anita.

Photo session with the phone car.

What is this?

Hanging with a favorite :)

On Vacation

noreply@blogger.com (Allison) — Sun, 01 Jul 2012 03:58:00 +0000

Catherine and I have started our WI/MN vacation. We arrived late last night after two fun flights where Catherine made lots of friends. We were thankful that Troy was willing to meet us at the airport after midnight.

Whatcha doing?

Buddies!

Ellen loves Catherine!

Catherine loves Ellen, too.

She's getting so big!

Loving the new sunglasses.

Catherine has figured out that the swing is useful for more than just relaxing.

Enjoying toys that Mommy and Aunties Crystal and Ellen played with when they were little.

The old high chair still works!

Catherine helped us pick the last strawberries of the season on Saturday.

Loving time with Grandma Colby.
