Touch-A-Truck

Yesterday I took Kathryn & Annaliese to a Touch-A-Truck event nearby. Annaliese mostly lounged in the stroller, but Kathryn loved it. She had a free hot dog, bag of popcorn, and orange drink--which required about 5 refills. She also spent time climbing into a fire truck, ambulance, Life Flight helicopter, racing motorcycle, USMC humvee, and more. We met up with a few friends, too. The last one is my favorite. :)

Dancing Queen

Apparently, some of you were surprised by Kathryn's dancing and singing at Becky & Bill's wedding. Just to show you how Kathryn-like that really is, here she is dancing (on her own with no music) at our friends' wedding the weekend before.

Free dog, anyone?

Seriously. Henry almost died tonight. By my hand. I don't know how much more I can take. I am not a dog person, and the only reason he's still around is that Kathryn was crying about how she didn't want me to get rid of him.

Realistically, I wouldn't have actually killed him, but I might really have taken him to an animal shelter of some sort. Please. I am begging you. Take this dog. The only one who will miss him is Kathryn, and I could maybe persuade her to forget about him. (Especially if she could visit him at one of your houses periodically.)

See, you'd really be doing this for her. ;)


(And he's so cute--if you like dogs.)

Teething Time!

Annaliese's first tooth poked through yesterday. (I'd show you a picture, but she tries to take a bite out of the camera every time she sees it.) Needless to say, today was a disaster. Even more so because she was at school and they can't administer medication without a doctor's note.

After we got home, I was holding her on the couch, waiting for her to calm down, when Kathryn asked me: Did her shots make her get teeth?

I laughed for several reasons.

Thank God for Motrin.

Okay. I snuck a picture. (She's much more cooperative now.)
