Sweet Little Lady Bug

Here she is! My darling little snuggle bug.

You can probably tell from the picture, Kate slept through most of her time as a Lady Bug.


Kate finally got to meet her only two cousins, Betsy and Gabe. The lady bug on the left is Betsy. My whole family (except Carrie, of course) came to visit for Kate's blessing. The day before we had a Halloween party, complete with pinata. Afterward we went trick-or-treating. Kate diligently held a candy bag even though she was asleep. Christian ate all of her candy.

Here's Gabe's costume. He was a ghost-robot, but he turned out to be more robot than ghost. The two red rectangles on his chest flashed and he could make his claw open and shut. This costume was a BIG hit as we went door-to-door. One guys said, "I'm totally going to make that costume next year!"


Kate loved spending time with her cousins!

Gabe kept saying, "Aw! Kate is such a cute little girl!" I think it made Betsy jealous because it looks like the girls started fighting for Gabe's attention.
I'm guessing Betsy was winning because Kate looks pretty mad.

But then the whole operation fell over.

It was so much fun to have my family here. More pictures to come of Kate's blessing day. But until then, here are some 2 month comparison pictures.
