Katherine is 2 months old!

First time in a baby Bjorn!

Sam is putting together his "Word Wall". His school teacher gives him words which he is studying in a particular week, and he pins them to his wall so he can look at them and learn how they are spelled. Sam is readying to attach it to a wall by his desk

Trip with mom to Zimmerli Art Museum

Unfortunately Katherine slept through all the art...

and outside... she pretty much slept through the whole trip

Sam's notes to Katherine

Sam wrote these on post-its and read and showed them to Katherine. He is also saving them in a special box so she can read them later when she is older.

In case it is hard to read in the photo:
Red Note 1: Katie you are super nice to have.
Red Note 2: You are the best in my life. To Katie
Hand Note: You are the best Katie Love Your Brother
Red Note 3: Happy Birthday Katie. 1 Month Birthday.
Red Note 4: You are the baby in the world Katie

Proud grandpa - his first granddaughter!
