Our little Kate is quite the communicator. My favorite of the 30+ words she uses regularly is Ah-mo for Elmo. It amazes us how quickly she has developed from little baby to little kid. We absolutely love her attempts at communication and have captured a few of our favorite words in video below.

14 Months and Counting
As Kate has passed the 14 Month mark we are having a blast! She has recently started running, which is adorable. She loves being chased and sometimes even hides in her new tent. She is continuing to exhibit a very playful and fun spirit which we relish. Kate has also starting giving great tight little hugs which make our hearts melt. She continues to be a wonderful eater and has transitioned very well to whole milk out of the sippy-cup. She is also my little mini-me and helps with everything I do including vacuuming. (That love must come from her Gammy.) She has become very communicative and has added many new words and two word phrases to her repertoire. She constantly amazes us with what she understands. Her favorite toy is her pet dog which she loves to pull on a string behind her. The clips below show our little girl in action. Enjoy!

Nana and Umpa's Visit
This weekend my Mom and Dad visited from Chicago. We had an awesome time. Kate was so excited to see them both, and while she has been saying Nana for quite some time, she has now adorably named grandpa-- umpa.
They arrived on Friday and with the nice weather it didn't take us long to go on a few walks.

If you come for a visit watch out! Kate will walk up to you, hand you a book, and even turn around to sit in your lap. Her Umpa was a favorite target this weekend.
Kate sure enjoyed stealing Grandpa's breakfast. She can certainly eat!
Kate was also a great help with our Sunday dinner. She supervised both Nana and myself from underfoot.

We went to a few Mom to Mom Sales on Saturday and Grandma picked up some special presents for Kate, including this pink princess tent for our little princess.

Kate's 1st Hair Cut
While in Chicago we took Kate to get her first haircut. My mother, sister, and I all go to the same hairdresser, Chad, and love him. He has his own salon called Chadfabulous, and yes it and he are fabulous.
We didn't cut much of Kate's hair. She just needed a little shaping around the eyes and ears, and even though Kate wasn't his most cooperative customer Chad did a wonderful job.
For the most part our little girl is an angel, but there are certainly times that she exhibits quite the strong will. The few tantrums she has thrown have been quite adorable and usually involve being tired or pinned down.

Our Chicago Trip
Last week Kate and I headed to Chicago and had quite the whirlwind of a week. It was filled with wedding tasks and culminated with Katie and Ben's engagement party. We all had an awesome time.The bride and groom-to-be.
We made the cake above for the party. Everyone thought it was very funny.
Brian joined us for the party and Kate was so excited to see her Daddy.
We also celebrated Michael's 25th Birthday.
Kate adored seeing Ashlinn (Kristen and Andy's little girl) and loved playing with her.
Our little Kate, quite the party girl.
Kate even got to watch Cinderella on Grandpa's new TV.
It was a great week and we can't wait to return.
