locked out...again

So this morning Anna Kate and I went on a little walk after Nick left for work around 8am.  Well, when we returned...we couldn't get into the house.  We have two doors in our house that have annoying locks.  Let me explain...if you are inside the house it doesn't matter if the door is locked or unlocked you can open it either way.  So it happens to be locked and you don't know, as soon as you step out and shut the door, you are locked out.  Lets just say that this is the third time now that this has happened to me at this house.  Can we say...we need to get a hide-a-key???  I'd say yes and I think Nick would second that opinion.  Especially since he is the one that has to come rescue us.  He is always at work too.  How terrible am I...thank goodness he only works 15min away.  Well that is my blonde moment post for today.

Anna Kate update

So it has been a little bit since my last post. I have to admit...I love doing this, but I don't have the time most days to post. But here is a little catch up on what Anna Kate is up to these days.

Where to start. She is rolling all over the place. You would think she thought that was the way to get around in life. I guess for her that is the way to get around right now. She gets her knees under her tummy, but still no movement from there as far as crawling. Probably won't be long though. She can sit up really well and by herself. We took a picture last night of her sitting in her new bath tub...she looks like a little girl now and not like a baby. If you ask most of the my friends they would say she never really looked like a typical baby...I think it is just all the hair. Speaking of hair...it is so long and we now HAVE to have a bow in her hair at all times...that is if you want to see her left eye. Not sure that she is quite ready for a hair cut, but we might need a little trim before we know it.

Anna Kate is also eating veggies right now. She has tried...Avocado, yellow squash, green beans, and carrots. Can you guess which ones she didn't care for? Well so far just Avocado and green beans. She did eat them, but we had to mix her rice cereal with them in order for her to not make her soured face when she took a bite. She is finally sleeping much better. Praise the Lord. She usually gets up btw 6-6:30 and then back down for a nap btw 8-8:30. Then that nap lasts maybe an hour...sometimes more :). She usually goes back down for a nap around 1...and that last for about an hour. Lately she has been ready to start her night time routine by like 6:30 (sometimes earlier). So she is usually asleep at night around 7:30. THE GREAT NEWS IS THIS...she is now only getting up 2 times at night. For those of you that don't know...that is a HUGE improvement for our little bit.

So all in all...she is at such a fun age right now...laughing, smiling, and really starting to have a little personality of her own. Oh how we love her!!! God is so good!! Pictures to be added soon.
