Something Old, Something New

Old: Kara Jane finally got to wear this little dress that was mine - or one of my sisters - or most likely all three of ours.  The pictures aren't great, but you can still see how cute she is.  
 

New: In this picture, you can sort-of tell that she's got her tongue on her gums.  That's because she had a tooth finally break through this weekend.  Her first tooth at almost 11 months!!
 

Doc

Levi has a new favorite show (for the moment - he seems to go in phases).  It is Doc McStuffins.  It is a cute show, a little girly but cute.  On this particular Saturday while I was sweeping the floor, Kara Jane gave Doc her full attention as well.

A-Day Game 2012

Kara Jane had her first A-Day game experience. Well, she was with us last year - just couldn't see anything. ;-)


This year, we took a picnic lunch, and Collier joined us. What a treat!


Levi was excited to go to Auburn and the game again. He was especially excited when two of his great friends met up with us for lunch and play!


It was a hot day - and very sunny. Thankfully, Khaki volunteered to put Kara in the stroller and walk her around in the shade. Khaki and Q said that Kara Jane waved to everyone.

Waiting to go onto the field after the game...


Kara was not too sure about the grass.


Levi loved it!


Levi really had fun trying to throw the football over the goal post. He made it at least twice.


I thought it would be cute to get a picture of Kara with the cheerleaders. She was enthralled with them and wouldn't look at me - or the camera. So, I thought this pic was pretty cute.


Levi also had a great time trying to get autographs from the football players on the football. At first he would just hang back. By the last autograph, he just wiggled his way to the front of the crowd and held up the football as high as he could.

Levi had so much fun playing with Q.

Easter Weekend

Easter weekend, Levi, Kara Jane, and I went to Khaki and Q's. On Saturday, Q showed Levi a bird's nest with five eggs in it.





Easter morning, Levi and Kara got some special surprises.






We went to church with Khaki and Q. The sanctuary at their church was without power. It made for a very intimate and special service.

Levi was in quite a mood, and he did not want to take pictures at first.


He finally acquiesced.


A quick pic of KJ and Q.


Easter tradition is to have lunch at Aunt Kathy's. Great fun to see our family. I love getting pictures of Mama Rains with her great-grands.

She Did It!!

Kara Jane has been crawling backwards for a few strides every once in a while for about a week. I had also seen her move her arms like she was going to crawl forward, but her legs wouldn't cooperate. She would get very frustrated about it. Until today!!


CC and Chris had come for lunch, so CC got to share in the excitement.


Watch out Levi - here comes Kara!
