Kate in the Garden

On Saturday we had a visit from our Chicago Nana. She came and helped us pick out and plant our flowers . She is certainly sharing her love of gardening with us, and not to mention making the entire task more enjoyable and manageable for Brian and I. Kate loved being outside during the process and "supervised" from her stroller.I was feeling pink this year and all of our flowers are pink or dark pink with dark purple and red to accent. We even found a beautiful pink hydrangea at one of the local nurseries and planted it in honor of our little girl.

Kate's trick of the weekend was finding her shouting voice. On Friday and Saturday she really discovered this loud voice and did not stop projecting it. I almost had a bit of a headache by the end of the day Friday and Kate was actually a little hoarse on Saturday. It was cute though and has thankfully subsided a bit. My Mom even commented on how we have our hands full with this little one. She is also finding just about everything funny, even me now.

The pic of Kate in the garden could win a contest in Parade! She looks so serious like her daddy did at that age! What a sweetheart! Loved the video of her laughing with Mommy! See you in just a few days! Love, Linda/Mom/Gammster

If the Hydrangea makes it, it will be fun to show Kate in years to come how she and it grows!
I had a great visit and as usual, did not get enough to eat.
Have a Wonderful visit in New York!
Love, Nana
