So today, Katie woke up at about 7:45am and I got her up out of her crib and changed her diaper. Changed her out of her jammies into some clothes and we went down stairs to watch Sesame Street. I usually wash out her bottle (that she had at 2:30am) and make her breakfast while she plays and watched TV for a little while-before I take her on her walk. I was washing out her bottle when she peeked around the corner at me and then took off running with something in her hand. I knew by the taunt that she had something that she should not have. I chased her down and found this:

Excellent! She found daddy's beer bottle from last night. lol. No, there was nothing in it. He just forgot it on the floor. Nice....I did manage to get a quick picture of her before I had to wrestle it away from her......of couse it was the one thing in the entire world that she wanted more than anything-even more than that plastic bags and forks and other small items or breakable things that she wants. Yikes!!!!!

On a different note, here she is in her Halloween Costume.

Lombardi's Ranch

Sunday Matt and I took Katie to Lombardi's Ranch to meet up with our friends Fenella and her husband Jerry and their two little angels Owen and Brando. We had a great time. It was very crowded and pretty warm. Katie had a 15 minute nap on the way there, so she was a little cranky, but was very good considering. Here are a few pictures of our trip:





This is the only picture I could get with the three of them...lol.





This was Katie on the way home....zzzz....zzzzz.......zzzz





We are getting ready to celebrate her 1st birthday party and it should be a blast. I am a little stressed at getting everything done, but I am so excited too.

Today my sister Melanie and I took some fun pictures of Katie. We had a blast...Katie did too once Jack was let inside. She only lasted for about 100 pictures, but we got some pretty good ones. Here are a few....








I guess I can say the "D" word again, since I was right and I knew better that to mention them when they were doin g so well. SO, they swept Chicago and then lost 2 in a row to Philadelphia...they NEED to win the next 4 game.

This past weekend we took Katie to Lombardi's Ranch. It is a huge pumpkin patch here in Santa Clarita. They also have train rides, a petting zoo, face painting and a corn maze. I can't wait to take her in a couple years when she is able to participate in a few more activities. We just picked out a pumpkin and walked around a little. She LOVED helping daddy push the wagon around and she even picked a pumpkin for Juliana and Mia (her cousins).

If you noticed....I have made no mention of a certain baseball team. I don't want to jinx them, so I am keeping quiet. :)
