Monday we celebrated Caitlyn's first birthday. She loved eating the cupcakes and playing with all the kids and watching all the kids open her presents! She is doing so much right now, she can walk, climb up stairs, say several words (mama, dada, ni-night, "eat-eat" for Pete, "titty" for kitty, hi, bye bye, tink-tink, something like Shadow I am told by everyone else, moo, dolly and I am sure a few others), eats all kinds of table food with us, has totally gotten rid of all her bottles, and now goes to sleep on her own in her crib...most nights! She is a good shopper, has a girly attitude and loves all kinds of girly things, and knows how to fight with her brother already and exactly which buttons to push to make him angry! She is definitely going to be a lot of fun for us!
Thursday, on her birthday, we will be getting her pictures taken, and I am sure that I will have to do another batch of cupcakes of some sort for her so she can get frosting all over herself again!
As to Christopher we just took him to his first day of Rhyme Time today and he loved it! Ryan dropped him off and much to our surprise he immediately went for the toys and didn't look back! He had a lot of fun playing with the kids and learned something where he slaps his hands on his legs and whispers slower slower and speeds it up and gets louder until he is screaming louder louder and hits his hands on his lap really fast. He thinks it is great anyway! He tells us regularly now that he is a farmer, golfer, ref. He has gotten so tall over the summer...you can tell that he is getting older!
Ryan is back to his refing again, the kids and I are trying our best to find things to do, but Christopher really misses his daddy on those nights! We have gone to a few football games, but with the cooler weather, I don't know how many more we will get to. Next week starts the craziness of the Spencer fair, and soon after will be harvest. Christopher is already looking in the fields every day for the combines!
