katie on Grandma & Grandma's trampoline. she looked pretty excited!

she looks so SWEET!

her latest habit is very annoying. after you take her diaper off she tries to get away without putting a new one on. exasperating!

she has also started... throwing fits!  you can tell she is going to be the "throw-myself-on-the-floor"
type!

another fit.

this is my favorite fit-pic!

look at this mop!
