What a Weekend!
This has been a busy weekend for us. On Friday, we flew up to Chicago. Katelin made it through her first flight without a fuss. She slept most of the way. Taking off and landing didn't bother her a bit. Good thing since we fly several times a year! We flew using miles and because of the types of mileage awards available, it actually cost us less miles to fly first class so we spoiled Katelin. I hope she doesn't get used to it! We're back to coach for our next trip.
Friday night my cousin got married so we went to his wedding. Katelin got all dressed up in her pretty pink and frilly dress from Grandma Zimmerman.
We got to show Katelin off to all my family on my dad's side. She was very good. Didn't make a sound during the ceremony and only cried a little bit at the reception. When she did cry, the music was going so only a couple people right around her could hear it. The DJ had colored lights moving around on the ceiling and Katelin was mesmerized by them. I think we may need to try picking up a cheap colored light party ball thing from Wal-mart and see if that helps her fall asleep in the crib.
Since everyone on my dad's side got to see Katelin on Friday night, we had a little get-together with the people on my mom's side and a few of my friends Saturday night. It wound up being a meet Katelin/30th B-day party for me. Of course, Katelin was a big hit again. She got to meet Lucy, the 5 month old daughter of two of my friends from high school. Katelin looks so little next to Lucy!
Katelin is smiling a lot now (and not just when she has gas anymore). She's getting more and more responsive. She can roll over from her back onto her side so it is just a matter of time before she can roll over onto her stomach. That should be her next milestone. We go back to the pediatrician on July 1st so we'll have a height/weight update then. If I were guessing, I'd say she's around 10 pounds now and maybe 23 inches long. Of course, that is a complete guess.
I've added some new links on the left side of the page. Katelin has a You Tube site that we've posted a couple videos on. I've also added links to her newborn pictures/slide show. At 2-1/2 weeks, we had a photographer come out to the house and took some great pictures. He put together a wonderful slide show that will bring tears to your eyes. If anyone is expecting in the DFW area, see if he'll come to your area. He only does newborn pictures up to 3 weeks old though so you need to get on the schedule. He doesn't do any other ages either. He's amazing and his price was really good.
Sunday we celebrated a belated Father's Day for my dad and Chris since we were all in town before Jen and Scott headed home. We just went to Northwoods so Chris could have some Walleye before he headed home. Evidently, you can't get Walleye in Texas. Who knew! Chris also requested some pizza so Sunday night, we enjoyed some tasty stuffed pizza (YUM!). My last trip up to Chicago was so short, I didn't get to have any good pizza. I miss it.
Well, I hope everyone is doing well. It was great seeing everyone this weekend and we're looking forward to showing Katelin off even more :) I'll post a slide show with more Katelin pictures this week.

The Big 3-0!
Okay, I said I was going to update this blog today so here it is! Today was my birthday and I turned 30. No big deal to me though. I feel like I accomplished a lot before I hit 30. Found a good job, bought a house, traveled to various countries around the world, got married, had a child... what else could I ask for???
I know you are all wanting to see new pictures of Katelin but it'll have to wait another day. We're leaving for the airport in 5 hours (6am flight!) and I've already shut down my computer. Chris' doesn't have any pictures on it. Katelin will be taking her first flight tomorrow! How exciting. Hopefully she'll sleep or be quite. We're going up to Chicago so it is only a 2 hour flight.
I'll try to update more tomorrow!
