Birthday Party

A couple of weekends ago, we traveled north to celebrate cousin Elizabeth's first birthday at Blue Mound State Park.  On this beautiful Saturday, we enjoyed a delicious picnic lunch and being with family.  Audrey and Kate helped as much as they could and had fun spending time with Elizabeth.  It's so sweet to watch Audrey take on the role of an older cousin, as she seems to be a babysitter-in-training!  Happy First Birthday, Elizabeth!  We're looking forward to seeing you soon.  Oh, and Kate also wants you to know she made it the full 2+ hour drive up with a dry pull-up.  We had to make a run for the restroom right when we got there, but she did it!

Kate took a picture of her purple shoe.  It's important for us to remember these shoes, as they are basically all Kate will wear throughout these spring and summer months.  Needless to say, they need to be washed often.  We all (including Kate) refer to them as her "stinky shoes".
