GAT-OR-DONE!!!

BREAKING NEWS:  Kaitlin Grace has decided to  leave the Shinlever-3 and join the Pac-10!  She heard everyone else was going  there so she jumped on the bandwagon … they must have better snacks there!  She is  wearing a gators shirt  today, but I told her that during football season we would be calling them crocodiles. Kaitlin will understand soon enough!

Kaitlin Grace is very blessed to have her middle name. While driving to Knoxville for my baby shower in February 2009, my friend Ashley, Kory & I went thru millions of middle name combinations for about 5 hours. Kiffin was near the top of the list. (Kaitlin Kiffin did have a ring to it!) Ashley reminded me today of how thankful we are we did not go down that road. We would have been at City  Hall in January! Kaitlin Grace is the perfect name.

(Forced Editor’s Note:  Kory and his friend Will were adamantly against “Kiffin” as a middle name … maybe they knew something … hmmm …)

(P.S. – If you love college football & haven’t read Will’s blog at Rocky Top Talk yet, you really should.  It’s Kaitlin’s favorite blog and she’s got football fever in June!  http://www.rockytoptalk.com/ )

Mischievous … But Happy :)

Kory & I were hanging out with Kaitlin Grace a few days ago in her play room, and all of a sudden, she took off running to her bed room like a big dog was chasing her! Kaitlin was gone just a few seconds and it was very, VERY quiet ... up-to-something quiet! OH, and she was! Kaitlin managed to pull the temperature gauge off her night stand and pull all the diapers & blankets down off the shelf.

She was so pleased with herself & the mess that she had made, all her helpless parents could do was laugh!!!

Dog Ears and Big Girl Bows

Kaitlin has gotten so much hair and we are trying to convince her that bows are really a good thing. Usually a bow last less than a minute in her hair if we are lucky. Long enough to take a couple pictures and then it is out. So after her shower the other day I put her hair up in dog ears ( pig tails.. piggy tails..) and she loved it.They stayed in her hair and she looks like such a big girl looks like it is time to find some more big girl bows!
