Talkin’ ’bout my girl

June 27, 2013 by Elaine

I haven’t written specifically about K in a while.  I think sometimes I am still amazed that she is mine.  That I have a daughter. A spunky, bossy, girly-girl that doesn’t take “No” for an answer, princess-loving GIRL. On any given day her hair is a tangled mess, she has food on her face and…

Just the Two of Us

March 6, 2013 by Elaine

Blue sky, blue eyes, coral vest and green grass (and weeds). Purple shoes, pink blooms and her favorite scarf with hearts. Blonde hair and yogurt-trimmed lips. A sweet, little girl who hardly stops talking and asking questions. Swinging together and bouquets from the backyard. Sun shining and birds chirping with Spring in the air, it’s almost here….

Nap Talk (and a cutie-patootie video)

January 25, 2013 by Elaine

So, one of the last things my last baby has yet to outgrow is the NAP.  K is quickly approaching 3 and half years old (shiz, how did THAT, happen!?!) and her brothers both stopped napping a little after 3 years old so this is kinda foreign to me.  She’s still going pretty strong and…

At Three

October 1, 2012 by Elaine

My sweet Katie-Kay is three today. Aw, it’s like a little poem. And really, so is she. I have so much joy with her in my life, it’s hard to describe. Of course I love shopping for cute outfits and headbands that she doesn’t leave in her hair for long and brushing her hair and…

The Ladybug Dress

September 26, 2012 by Elaine

I found this dress at Goodwill on one of my trips to Austin last year at the same time that I bought this one. My parents have an AWESOME Goodwill near their house. I just thought it was so cute with the rick-rack and the ladybugs and little daisies. Plus?  It was $3.99.  So yeah,…

Tuesdays With Katie

August 27, 2012 by Elaine

Miss K (I think she’s pretty much graduated from “baby”…) is starting pre-school after Labor Day.  She will go three days a week and Tuesdays (and Thursdays) will be our only full days together. Thursday mornings are booked with her class at The Little Gym and what I presume will be a few weekly trips…

The many faces of Kate

August 16, 2012 by Elaine

I took a few pics (try 50) of K today to practice some new things I’ve learned about using my camera lately and bokeh and lighting and all that. (more on that later). I bribed her with chocolate. Works EVERY time! (well, except with potty training…) And yes, there are more pics of her on…

Having a Daughter

August 15, 2012 by Elaine

Sometimes I just stop and marvel at the fact that I have a daughter. There was a time when I just wasn’t so sure.   Although when I found out I was pregnant with her I kinda had a feeling.  But I didn’t want to get my hopes up… you know? I find such joy…
