HaPpY BiRtHdAy To YoU!

nothing's better than seeing these two beautiful smiling faces

Well, we're celebrating two birthdays this week. Nick's was yesterday April 28th and Katelyn's four month birthday is on Friday!

Let me just start off by saying that Katelyn LOVED the balloons! She was eyeballing them and grabbing them whenever she could. As you can see in the picture. I set her down in her boppy next to them to take a picture and she just whooped around and grabbed them!

We had a wonderful day celebrating Nick's birthday. He is now 25 years old. And tomorrow will be Katelyn's 4 month birthday.

Here are some pre-birthday pics. Katelyn and I working on the surprise for daddy:

I wrapped his present in brown paper bag so then we could decorate it, Katelyn even helped color it :) haha

All done wrapping daddy's present. She was proud of her work.

Nick started out his birthday by going to school early yesterday morning. He called me around noon to say he was on his way home. So quickly I got everything ready to surprise him for his birthday. Here's what he came home to:

 

Balloons, a present, card, and a cute little baby girl

Boy was she happy to be around those balloons

She was proud of her drawing on his card as well

To: Daddy

Love: Katelyn (and Mommy)

  

Nick was excited to see her

I love you baby. I love you daddy.

 

Opening his gift, Katelyn was all over that thing, she wanted to help open it 

We got lunch from our FAVORITE thai restaurant. It really is the best place ever

 

Later we celebrated with some homemade cherry cheesecake

 

With four candles for Katelyn turning 4 months (we didn't want to put in 25 candles for Nick haha)

 

She didn't know what to think of it all

Blowing out the candles... ok really it's just Nick, but one day it'll be Katelyn.

And that was our day! It was great and we all enjoyed spending time together as a family :)

Quick Video

Quick little video of my baby girl. She's growing so much. With much help and much supervision she can sit up for a little while in mommy's lap :) She leans forward a lot so it's not quite sitting up yet, but she's getting there and she's such a big girl! I can't believe how fast she is growing.




P.S. we celebrated hers and Nicks birthdays today Nick (25) Katelyn (4 Months) that post will come tomorrow i'm too tired to write it tonight, goodnight!

-Talking Baby-

Katelyn talks and screams and laughs to herself all the time. It's really cute. Her personality is beginning to seem like Nick's more and more everyday... if that's the case i've got a troublemaker on my hands! Haha. She's quiet at first because she see's the camera, the video is kind of long, but at the end there she really gets going.

.FUN IN THE SUN.

DON'T WORRY..I know what some of you might be thinking.. SHE'S GOING TO BURN IN THAT SUN!! But we only had her in her diaper and in the sun for a few quick pics, then took her out of the sun right away. We're not that bad and understand she can get burnt :)

Ok so one part of our weekend it rained quite a bit, and that was on Saturday at the art festival in OKC, but other than that it's been so nice and I'm LOVIN this warm weather! It's getting me really excited for vacations this summer. On the Jensen side we'll be heading back to our lovely honeymoon spot: DISNEYWORLD. And on the Morris side... um, well, we're still undecided, but we are going to Utah for sure we just don't know what the plans are for once we get there. :) We're so excited!!

So, anyways, this weekend was pretty fun. We had a BBQ with some friends, we went to the Art Festival, visited the Bombing memorial, and now it's Sunday we went to church, read some books outside in the backyard, and enjoyed the warm weather while Katelyn played in her stroller.

Here are some pics- a few of the memorial (there were quite a few people because on Monday it had been 15 years since the bombing) some of Katelyn and dad walking downtown after waiting for the rain to stop, we got sprinkled on, and then our cute babe relaxing with her shades :):

Zzzzz...

Here is Katelyn. Sleeping so peacefully. She patiently sat and watched mommy do the dishes, make herself breakfast, eat breakfast. Then she played with mommy, watched mommy start on a craft, played with her toys then she just got too worn out. So as soon as I picked her up and rocked her in my arms she was out. She's such an angel.

She definitely needs her morning nap. Without fail she will always take one about 1-2 hours after she has woken up in the morning. It's nice because I can usually get quite a bit done in the morning all while she sleeps. I realized though, if I don't do my jobs in the morning.. it seems to never get done. It's quite odd.

We bought her a bumbo chair. 

She looks so cute in it. She is still trying to get used to it and doesn't like to sit in it long, but I think she likes being able to sit up better than lying on her back all the time. :)

 

It's been a bit chilly over the weekend. So we've been dressing her warm. I can't believe that beanie used to cover her eyes. She's growing up so fast. She'll be four months soon!

 

I love her little yawn haha so cute!!

She also decided that she wants to go to BYU when she's older. She's already one of their biggest fans.

Now look who just woke up! :) Time for me to go!

PIctures to prove it

I noticed lately that i've been writing about a lot of Katelyn's milestones she has reached, but there are no pictures to show what she is actually doing. So I took a bunch of pictures of her today (yes they were all from today if you notice she's in the same outfit in each one) but I just didn't want to miss everything she's doing so I quickly caught up and took a bunch of her best new accomplishments :)

She doesn't see me.... yet.(she's looking at the tv haha)

 

oh no! she saw the red light go off

  

trying to sit up

 

ooh, she heard nick's voice behind her

  

 she can't turn herself around all the way to see him

 

trying to eat her bunny

 

 

she loves her stuffed animals

  

kind of siting up... wondering what's that?

  

woooww a circle...

  

oh, hi mom... again.

  

I really don't want to play with those right now 

  

but i'll reach for Mr. Froggy!

  

got him!!!

  

and i'm not gonna let go!

 

still giving me smiles :) (i don't know how to rotate them on nicks lap top)
