Excersaucer

These things are a gift from the heavens (actually, Brian and Marney - THANK YOU!). Kate has been absolutely delighted with it since it was assembled and, quite honestly, so have #1 and #2 of Team Gootch. Not to mention that she is now eye level with Annie The Dog.

Easter!

Kate was completely unaware of Easter, but that didn't mean that it wasn't a great opportunity to color eggs, put her in a pretty dress and prop her up with a basket and a bunny!

Christmas - a Family of Three

Kate's first Christmas was quiet and filled mostly with napping (at least on her behalf). We had the pleasure of Nanny being here for a month (1/2 of it spent before Kate bothered to arrive), to include the holiday.

The BIG Day

This is the day - I was induced on December 11, 2006 (exactly one week past my due date). Although the pictures aren't pretty, it was a day I will never forget, and certainly the best day of our lives. The emotions of the day and memories I have were (and are) overwhelming and a blur.
