Our Week: Halloween and Doctor's Visit

Halloween was this week and of course Katie had the cutest outfit ever...a chicken!  We had family over on sunday for chili and to see Katie in her costume.  On Halloween night we went to Rich's parents house so they could see Katie in her outfit, too.  When we got home Katie answered the door to a couple of trick-or-treaters and then konked out. 


Before we got Katie all dressed up in her chicken outfit she got to play outside. 


She loves playing in the dirt and with the flowers in the backyard.

Katie had her 1-year-old checkup on tuesday.  She had to get all of her shots, including the flu but she was a trooper and just cried a couple minutes after the shots.  Here's her stats from the doctor's visit
*She weighs 18.6 lbs.
*She's 29 in.
*She can have all foods now except for peanut products.
*The doctor said she's doing great and is developmentally and physically "perfect"! 


At the library on thursday Katie got to play the keyboard.  She sat in the librarian's lap and played for about 10 minutes (until the librarian had to get back to work lol).  Then she sat on my lap for another 15 until we had to go.  She really loves music.  She loves turning on the radio and dancing to the songs. 


For the first time in a long, long, long time Katie actually fell asleep in her Daddy's lap.  She doesn't like to be held or cuddled while she falls asleep, she wants to be in her bed and left alone but, last night she was just too tuckered out to care.  Her Daddy soaked it up and loved cuddling his little girl before we tucked her in.


                                                 She likes wearing Daddy's baseball cap.


Katie got to try a new food this week...fish!  I baked some salmon and she gobbled it up.  She ate the salmon before she ate her peas and peas are on of her favorite foods!


Katie and I took advantage of the beauitful weather and planted some tulip bulbs today.  It will be hard for Katie when the weather turns colder and she can't go outside.  She loves playing outside...watching the birds at the bird feeder and picking grass.
