The good and bad of the week...
First we start out with the good: isn't she just the cutest in her new bathing suit!!
The bad is not related to Kate at all but bad none the less. When we're driving down the road there are many things I would never think would happen to our car. Well then something strange and unthinkable happened. Last night at 12:30 am we are driving from dustin's parents to our house (nearly an hour long drive) and our hood flies up and smacks into our windshield. Now of course we can't see a thing because it's pitch black to our sides and there's a hood covering our window. Luckily Dustin was driving and safely pulled over and no one was hurt. My brilliant daddy suggests we use dustin's shoelaces to tie the hood down and try to make it home. It worked! But what the heck. As if we didn't have enough financial strain just trying to pay our bills we add this. GREAT.

Memory tag
This sounded like fun. Please play along!!
1. As a comment on my blog, leave one memory that you and I had together. It doesn't matter if you knew me a little or a lot, anything you remember!
2. Next, re-post these instructions on your blog and see how many people leave a memory about you. It's actually pretty funny to see the responses. If you leave a memory about me, I'll assume you're playing the game and I'll come to your blog and leave one about you. (or not if you don't want to post it on your blog or don't have a blog...leave a comment anyway!!)

4th of July weekend
Friday we went to a picnic at a family friend's house. Here's Kate with Daddy and Uncle Justin and Aunt Melissa.
Even though it wasn't sunny out and the water was 70 degrees...Kate just had to go swimming. She kept climbing up the stairs and trying to get in. So Daddy grudgingly took her in!! They were freezing but Kate couldn't stop smiling!
Saturday we went to Kennywood(amusement park). I was of course a nervous wreck about Kate being able to have a good day with so much excitement and no sleeping. But she has been surprising me lately...in a good way. I'm knocking on wood as I type this but she has been an angel lately! She eats all her food and sleeps great!! (the two things that usually cause stress in our house!) Anyways...she had a great day at Kennywood and even took a 2 hour nap in her stroller- a first since she was a newborn. She was pretty apprehensive about all the rides but seemed to like them by the end. She just pretty much had a serious face on most of the day.
Here she is riding some rides and playing some games.

No better place on earth...
Well at least that is what Kate thinks about her new favorite place.
She can even get up there by herself.
She loves to look out at the neighbors taking out their dogs.
And telling me stories.
And even eating her snack here.
Uh, oh...we can't leave her alone here, though!
