Best Friends Part II

I've written before about what good friends Bud and Kaitlin are, but it seems like their friendship grows everyday. There are several games they like to play. First and foremost, she LOVES to chase him around with her walker, and after she zooms past him and he starts to come after her, she squeals with delight. It really is the cutest thing ever. Another "subgame" that usually follows the chase is when I'm sitting in the armchair in the living room and she gets tired and comes and tries to crawl in my lap, but that's also where I pet Bud, so he comes over too, and she just screams and starts jumping up and down trying to get in my lap before he gets there. And then when I pick her up she pets him, yelling "Bud, BUD!" Friday, I got to watch a new game though, which might beat both of those. We have a short wall in between our living room and kitchen, probably about 2 feet tall. It's right about mouth level to Kaitlin right now, and she likes to stand on the kitchen side and I kneel on the living room side and we crouch down and see who can scare each other more when we pop up - kind of like peekaboo. The girl loves to be scared! Anyways, Friday, Kaitlin and I were playing in the living room, reading stories, when she noticed Bud sitting on the other side of the wall by the backdoor. She immediately crawled over and stood up by the wall and started trying to "scare" him. She did it about 10 times, until I ruined the game by letting him out. That was the reason he was standing there in the first place and he wasn't too amused with how long he had to wait, but I bet he'd do it again for his best friend. I love watching them and only wish Chunky were here to play too.

Did someone set off a pink bomb in here? I like the new look, much more feminine for the little princess.

We are still looking at different template layouts, but not many options within Google. Apparently you can get templates from 3rd party websites, but haven't had a chance to go and check them out.

Hey Keiths,

I'm officially caught-up on Kaitlin life as you've so eloquently illustrated in your blog. As I mentioned to Jim, I gave a little nod to each of you in our own blog that I've started for our new baby.

Each of you do a great job of posting your own experiences... now if I could just get Julie to sit down and write something, you'd get both sides of the story.
