Katie Reading

Katie read this book about 15 times in a row! LOL. With as much enthusiasm each time. Where do kids get their energy?

1st Photo Shoot

A friend of mine from work asked me to do a photoshoot for her brother's friend, who is trying to get into the singing business. He's an R&B singer and her brother, who works for a radio station, is trying to get him signed. I was nervous at first, but I had the most fun. We took the shots at Cedar Performing Arts Center in Lancaster. Mark was really nice and he has a great voice. I hope they like the photos!

Katie in hats

Nothing to blog. Just took pics of Katie in these cute hats and wanted to post them. They are from the Children's Place and Pumpkin Patch.

Valenica Mall, Lions and Tigers and Bears, OH MY

In the Valencia Mall they have large animals you can ride around on. Katie chose this spotted dog and how I wished they had a Clifford the Big Red Dog to choose, but unfortunately, they didn't.
$5 for about 5 minutes of riding. You can steer it all around. Katie loved it.

Hanging out today and Apollo Park

I was supposed to work today, but my client never called me back. I didn't know what to do with myself, so I went to visit my mom for a while. David and Katie played in the backyard, riding bikes and playing hide-in-seek. Katie doesn't really get hiding and seeking yet, just sort of closing her eyes and popping out randomly, saying, "you found me!"

Katie had fun playing in the backyard with David

Later we took Katie and David to Apollo Park to feed the ducks. The ducks were ATTACKING us and it was hard to feed them. They started chasing us and the kids were scared.

On the way home, we went to McDonalds and got the kids Happy Meals. We also drove down the Musical Road off of Avenue G, and let the kids listen to it.

Katie, getting ready for Trick or treating :)

Mickey's Not So Scary Halloween Party 2009

We went to Mickey's Halloween Party again this year and had a great time. Katie's favorite movie right now is Snow White. We got pictures with Snow White and the evil queen too. Mary and Katie went on Toy Story, which is an interactive game, where you wear 3D glasses and shoot at carnival type games with a laser gun and rack up points.

Hannah was Foofa from Yo Gabba Gabba, but she wouldn't wear her costume. She wore the hat for just a few seconds
Katie was Tinkerbell, but we lost her wings after the first ride!
David was Peter Pan.

Hannah. She cried when it ended and had to go on again.
