Arbo with the family

Saturday we went to the Arboretum yet again, this time with the entire family. We went when they opened to meet a photographer to retake some pictures of Katherine. It is impossible for me to take good pictures of her at the Arboretum or really anywhere and Brandi had her work cut out for her to get some good ones as well. We should have them back in about a week.

After we were done with the photographer, Katherine changed into her tutu and we continued our morning hanging out as a family. The tutu was quite an attention getter, especially in the over 50 crowd. Everyone thought she was so cute. Of course I agree!

Most of our pictures were of Katherine walking away.

This photo was right after Katherine said, "Sam, sit right here". Sam and I looked at one another and just busted out laughing. Katherine has known our names for the last month but this was really the first time she used them on our own or to give us directions. It was cute and funny but we are not encouraging it.

Sam was trying to get Katherine to smell the flowers. She would alternate between blowing on it and kissing it.

This photo reminds me of my dear baby brother Will. He was always getting his head stuck as a child. Katherine's head did not get stuck, but I have a few memories of Will like this. She did actually get stuck the other day at the library playground when she wiggled her body through the gate and her head would not fit through. Luckily I realized this before she did and got her back through the gate before we had a crying toddler.
