Kate & Will together again

Over Father's day we went to Uncle Alvin's for a big family party. I spent most of the time hanging out with the best cousin ever - Will!

We always have so much fun when we're together. Here we are eating blueberries while everyone marvels at how cute we are:

More videos!

There are actually from early June but I couldn't resist posting them. It was so hot here in early June you couldn't be outside for more than 40 seconds. Hence why I'm running around in only my diaper. There was nothing else to do!

And here's me playing catch with mom - I'm not half bad!

A day at the races

We went to the horse track the other weekend for Mom's work party. It was so much fun! There were so many horses and they had so many beautiful bright colors on. There were also little ponies, but the line was way to long to wait for a ride. So I just went right up to the fence to have a look. We could go right down to the fence to look at the race too! It was really cool! I think I want a pony for my next birthday!

Summer = Swimming!

There's nothing I like better than swimming! I'm not even afraid to get dunked, in fact, when I'm in the bath tub I regularly take the cup from my mom so I can dump the water all over my head and face. The water is so much fun! Joey and I have been heading over to the local pool a lot this summer, it's the only good way to beat the heat. Here we are playing just the other week...

Joey's mom always brings lot of fun toys for us to play with - and Joey and I are good at sharing now too! If we can't be bothered to go to the pool there are also a ton of fun sprinkler parks all over Chicago. They are just regular parks that also have some sort of fun water feature at them too. It's a lot of fun, here's some pics from on of those recent trips too. Although those are more about me and the water bottle. Drinking from Mom's water bottle is my new favorite way to drink water, but you can see the sprinklers in the background.

Here's some better video of another sprinkler park, enjoy!

Grandma's House

The other week I stayed with Grandma & Grandpa for a whole week while mom was out of town. We had a ton of fun. We watered all Grandma's plants, watch cool concerts with Grandpa, played dress up, went to book club, went to a sprinkler park, took lots of walks and even hung out with my cousin Will. It was awesome. Thanks so much for taking such good care of me!!! I love you! Mmmmwwwahhhhh!

Playing Dress Up

Over the past month or 2 I've really gotten into dressing up! I love putting on necklaces, bracelets, shoes, shirts, underwear, hats, sunglasses, glasses, rubber bands, purses - really anything to add a little swag to my outfits. If you let me, I'll put it on. Here are some of the highlights:

One day I broke into Mom's underwear drawer... don't worry it's all clean underwear.

A girl can never have too many shoes, my mom's already taught me that!

Here's my Elton John look - and a flash forward of what I might look like if I had my mom's bad eyes and had to wear thick glasses!

And finally, breaking into Grandma's jewelry cabinet and putting on every piece I could find. It's really quite stunning, don't you think?

Eating Peaches and Making IDs...

So I can drive this thing legally soon!! This is by far my favorite mode of transportation. I am always riding in style...
