First Boone Trip!

The weekend was WONDERFUL! Friday it was rainy, so Kate did get to visit Klondike for an old timers special (5:00 dinner) and luckily the clouds and rain cleared out for a visit to Grandfather Mountain on Saturday. It was CHILLY at the top, but much better lower down the mountain by the bears and otters and other animals! We walked through campus...with a stroller...big change for us! It was a great first family vacation!

Dress Up...

Kate was playing dress up with me while her Dad was at a work meeting tonight, so here is a sneak peak at her kitty cat costume and her new sweater dress...too much fun! I think I was totally meant to have a girl! :)

Saturday Morning

This is what we wake up to now...how fun right???

Smith Mountain Lake

Kate had her first out of town visit to see Mimi & Granddad on Thursday & Friday. We went for one night, and she smiled away for them and stayed awake all day, great show off!

SMILING!!!

Kate has been smiling here and there, but all of a sudden it's all the time! Real smiles now, not gas smiles! Mickey and I have spent our evening in her room on the floor just watching her smile and make faces at us, probably my favorite day with her yet if I can choose one!

Weekend...

It's been a fun weekend, Kate is really starting to see more and recognize Mickey and I which we are enjoying! Here a few pictures from this weekend, and we did buy our pumpkins and get Kate's picture there, but I do hope to go back with her in a fall outfit and get more! Can't help it!

And some PJ pics...always love these footed pajamas, and thanks to all of you who gave them as gifts, she has so many and it's so fun to change them up!

5 weeks today

It's already been 5 weeks since Kate came into this world, time is flying by! I am enjoying every day I have home with her, making the most of each day I have. Here is Kate today, purple is a great color on her!

Fall Weather...

It's FINALLY cooling down and I was just taking some pictures of Kate before we headed out for our daily walk, and these are too cute not put on here right away. So here are two fall pics for the day. :)

Kate Kendziora

4 weeks old...

She is officially one month old now, and we are all doing great. Most days we think we have a routine and then it does change to more awake time during the day, and luckily more sleep during the night, 6 hours straight to us seems like a whole lot of sleep!

I have added some more pictures from the past 2 weeks, I know it has been a while and I have two more CD's full of pictures (not that we are taking many pictures, ha ha!) so I am trying to just pick by cute outfits or faces! It's hard to choose!

Kate has now met MANY friends and been surrounded by a lot of family. She has been held by all 3 cousins, by Faith, Maris & Ellie (other children friends) and has met work friends, college girls, she is just getting all kinds of love. Yet somehow we still take her out of her bassinet to hold her more or give her just one more kiss...it's great. We love being parents more than we would have ever imagined!
