Confessions of a Slacker Mom

Yes, I have been slacking on our family blog. I promise I do have valid reasons...1. It has been above freezing for several days so who wants to be inside? 2. Apparently I have this wedding in May that I have to pay so much overdue attention to. 3. We have a 14 month old with a cold :( 4. I get to rebarcode and catalog 18,000+ items at work, and everyone thinks I should magically get that done in a day (ARGH!) 5. Working out to fit my booty back into the wedding dress (almost there) 6. Training for the 5K. 7. Life!!!

So judge me if you must. I will try much harder to update more often.

So on to the updates! Killian is sick right now with a cold. I think the entire family actual has this cold, but we all feel so badly for Killian. Sean said today he hates waking up his sick little girl in the morning. She still puts on a happy face for her daddy. It just has boogies all over it. We realized there was something wrong with her when she showed no interest in food one morning. In her 14 months of being with us, I can not ever remember a time she has not wanted to eat.

She is getting so big. It seems like every time I pick her up after work she has more teeth, more hair and has lots of new stuff to show me. Her current new task is shuffling her feet. She loves to hear her shoes on the hard surfaces. So grandma taught her to take quick little steps and shuffle. Killian just bends her knees really fast and laughs. She marches with one leg. She looks as if she has a leg brace on and can not bend her leg.

We are still working on teaching her all of her Aunts and Uncles names. She will say Katie, Wawa, Sarah, and Kira (the last 3 sound all the same but still they count). Uncle Dave and Uncle Dan are just dad. Ian, Colleen and Erin are causing her some problems. She justs says "Huh?" She loves to look at the picture of Daddy and all his brothers and sisters. She will point to Sean and say Daddy! Then for some crazy reason she will point to Ian and Lauren and say "I saw you Uncle Ian and Aunt Wawa holding other babies who were not me. Oh I am so sad!" Just kidding!!!

We are getting very very excited to finally come out to California and see/meet everyone! Only a couple months now! I will leave you with some beautiful pictures of Killian playing outside this weekend!
