Oh Katie!!

Our Katie is a funny, funny girl. Even on her worst days, she comes up with some zingers. I told her the other day that grandma, grandpa, Uncle Pat and Darcy were all going to Disneyworld and would see Mickey Mouse. She looks at me, all excited "They're going in the TV? To Mickey's Clubhouse?" Yeah...she watches too much tv, ha ha ha.

Tonight, when putting her to bed, she tells me "When Jacob grows up, he will be a girl and grow his hair long. And I will be a mommy and then a baby and then he will sleep in my room and rock me to sleep."

Jacob sits quite well now but occasionally still tosses himself backwards, so we always put a couple pillows around him. Katie wanted to make sure he would be safe, so she piled them up behind him.




She is also insisting that Daddy needs to get her and all her friends (Marley, Stella, Colten, Bobby) kittens and that Teddy wants a dog. She keeps asking me if Daddy is getting her a kitten. I can't really say much 'cause I wouldn't mind a cat but Dean is allergic.

House pics!

We are mostly moved in and unpacked (if you don't count the garage and basement!) and the kids are starting to get settled in. I really like this house - Dean did a great job choosing it! I love the character, the touches of history, I like the view and I like how cozy it is. There are things to fix up, of course, but it is a lovely home and we look forward to meeting our neighbours and having family and friends to visit.
