Labor Day

My cute nieces and nephew, Luke, Alise, Emily, and Natalie

Last of all we headed to Churchill Downs for a quick tour.
Katelyn enjoyed snuggling with Uncle Dave

Natalie looking cute in the baseball bag while everyone played baseball.

We went to Southern and played baseball in the lawn.

On Labor Day my brother, Dave, and his family came to visit us. We had a great time together. Jonathan enjoyed getting to know his cousins better. He really enjoyed having them sleep in his room. He got so excited he couldn't sleep in there. He also learned "Uh-Oh Speghetti Ohs." He claims he learned it from Emily and Alise (althought they don't remember teaching him). Dave's kids were lots of help in the kitchen too (so was Anita). We had fun cooking, playing games, talking and touring Louisville together. Thanks for coming! It meant a lot to us.

End of the Summer Fun

We also went to the zoo with our friends Josie and Jack. Jonathan loved the animals!

Katelyn had fun crawling on (and off) the blanket.

Katelyn and Kaitlyn! This is our former neighbor girl. We went to the park to celebrate her birthday. Jonathan LOVED the cake and the bag of goodies.

Katelyn Growing, Changing, and On the Go

Having fun together! These two love each other. However, Katelyn can now get into his stuff. He will come to me and say "Mommy move Katelyn." This is just the beginning!

She has also started eating cereal, beans and carrots. But she is not a big fan of any of it.

I thought her brother moved a lot. I think she has him beat. She loves to jump in this thing. She will jump and jump!

Katelyn is up on all fours and on the go! She is crawling. There is no stopping her now.

A Visit From Grandpa and Grandma O

Katelyn sharing Grandpa's coffee (don't worry it's empty)

Being silly at Sonic

Jonthan is learning to dig

Now it's Grandma's turn

It is fun to have a preschool teacher for a Grandma. She always has fun toys with her!

Katelyn takes a nap on Grandpa

Jonthan got to spend a few days at Grandma's and Grandpa's all by himself. It was the first time he had been away from us for more than one night. He did great! He had so much fun. He didn't even want to talk to me on the phone. Not long after his visit to their house they came to Kentucky to see us. We had a great time. They helped us hang things on the walls of our apartment. We shopped a little, went to the park and had fun playing.

Just For Fun

Here are a couple pictures I thought were cute. Katelyn is crawling like crazy. She never sits still. Changing her diaper is like wrestling an alligator. No one makes her laugh more than Jonathan. I love to watch the two of them laugh at each other.

Tractor Rides

Good-bye Grandma and Grandpa! We had fun. Thanks for everything!

Kate even got a ride.

We ended our trip at Grandma and Grandpa Reker's house. Jonathan loved this tractor (It was his Uncle Chad's when he was little).

Having fun with the Bergmeier Cousins

The boys

The girls (except me)

But I did get a good one of just the two of them. Cute little buddies!

Matching monkey shirts...too bad I waited to too long to take the picture. Jonathan was tired and crabby.

The boys pretending they are at the field of dreams.
