Six Month Photo Shoot in San Fran

HI HI HI
Happy Friday!!

While in Cali:) Cate turned 6 months! I really cannot believe she is already six months old! Time really does fly by! When I was pregnant with Cate, when people would tell me, "Enjoy every minute, it goes by so fast..." I would bawl!! It made me so so so so sad! I just couldn't imagine the months flying by so quickly! But gosh they really have!!!

Cate did so well on her first flight. She slept the whole way there and had one small crying spell on the first leg home, but we just fed her and she fell right to sleep! She is just the friendliest little girl, she loves staring at people!!ha!

Her are some Cater highlights:

* She loves our dogs! Daisy gets her cracking up all the time
* Bath time is one of her favorite times of day!
* Getting out of her bath, not so much a favorite
* She LOVES all kinds of baby food!! I mean she gobbles it down!!
* She HATES getting her face wiped off!
* I swear she said "MA MA" the other night and then Ryan heard her say it and she was straining her neck to look for me and find me and said it again! I think she said her first word:) She says it a lot and I hope she knows it is me!
* She is still a rolling machine and sometimes lays her head down and moves a tiny bit but not much!
* She still hasn't mastered sitting yet.. getting close but still falls from side to side
* She loves her best friend Fin!! They both just light up when they see eachother! It is the cutest thing in the world! Cate and I are very very blessed to have Allison and Finley in our lives!
* When we are on the couch at night she loves to have a hold of my hand and Ryans, or she likes to touch Ryans face and have a hold of my hand! She has to be touching us both!
* Cate LOVES her Auntie Sarah! Sarah can get Cate to smile bigger than I have ever seen her smile! Anytime I want to take good pictures of Cate, I call her:) Auntie is soo good to her!!
* Cate also, loves the time she gets to spend with her Gammie and Poppa(my parents) I spend a lot of my days with my mom, and that being said... I LOVE it and hope that someday Cate and her children will want to spent as much time with me, as I want to spend with my mom and dad!
* My dad LOVES feeding Cate, it is the cutest thing:)
* Cate recieved her first Valentine flowers:) Her Uncle Patrick gave her a pink rose:) I have the cutest pictures of the two of them together to post!
* We tried the sassy jumper today... she loved it for about 5 minutes and then hated it
* She still loves to swing... she is awake in the morning for about an hour and then gets fussy and wants to swing and be left alone
* As I said on Monday, my daughter is a bow puller outer:) She loves to pull her bows out and her bff fins:)
* Socks no longer stay on her feet, we pull those off too:)
* She loves pulling on Halley's fur and Daisy's fur! Daisy is much more understanding
* She loves other kids... she loves staring at large loud families and smiling and seems so interested.. like she is saying, "Mom and Dad, I want brothers and sisters!" Give us some time Cate and you will, God willing, have brothers and sisters:)
* She loves going to church and hearing herself echo!! Yep we have to sit in the cry room most masses bec someone has discovered her voice echos there


We love her so much and fall in love with her even more every single day! God truly blessed us when He put Catharine Isabella in our lives! I thank HIM every night for such an amazing, beautiful blessing!
We love you Cater Bug, CupCate, Caterpillar, Caters:)
