Katalia received another gift in the mail from her Auntie M!

Little girl bear crawling to see what's in the box:



"A beautiful dress! Now where should I wear this?"



Thanks Auntie M. for the gifts!

Katalia took Auntie Cathy out to Sunday brunch at Cantina Laredo!

Little girl's steak, eggs, potatoes, sweet bread, and fresh fruit.. all to herself:

Queen Katalia



After dropping off Auntie Cathy to the airport, Katalia found gifts under the Christmas tree! Auntie Cathy is SNEAKY!!!

"Is this for me???"



Since Katalia & family were spending Christmas & her birthday in Houston, Mommy & Daddy allowed her to open all her gifts.

Little girl opening her birthday gift:



"These are some cool ribbons!"





Cooper helping her out!



Thanks Auntie Cathy for the Twilight Turtle!



Thanks for all the cool Christmas gifts too!

Katalia meets Santa!

Auntie Cathy came into town to visit Katalia!

Of course, one of the stops was to the mall to do a little shopping and for Katalia to finally meet Santa!

Little girl outside of the dressing room waiting for Mommy & Auntie Cathy:



"Daddy, I can't wait to meet Santa!"
(the nubbins broke through!!)



As soon as they were done shopping, they searched for Santa. They found an extremely LONG line of children waiting. Once they got to the front, Katalia was already asleep on Daddy's shoulder. What should Mommy & Daddy do? If they woke her and sat her on Santa's lap she would cry and scream! But...... if they kept her asleep.. would she wake up? :)

She continued to sleep in Santa's arms :)

Who snuck into Mommy & Daddy's bed last night?

"I have an excuse! I'm teething!"



"Hee-hee!"

50 Weeks! First attempt at Thai food

Mommy & Daddy are very blessed that Katalia eats whatever they have on hand.

Another day at the gym

Katalia has become very adventurous since joining the gym.

Climbing the steps to reach her friend, Hayden:



"I'm almost there!"



"I made it!!"



The separation anxiety exercise:







Afterwards, Katalia hung out and waited for Daddy to come home:



When she thought Mommy wasn't looking, she went for the tree:



Fascinated by Christmas lights!

49 Weeks! Yummy!

Katalia enjoying some mac-n-cheese!

It's NOT always going to be about Katalia!

Someone is getting a new sibling! :)

Welcome Baby J!

Katalia welcomed another beautiful baby (girl!) cousin today!

48 Weeks! Cowgirl

Lately, Katalia has been fascinated by Mommy's red socks.

"Mommy, I love your socks!!"



The little girl probably won't appreciate these photos as she gets older. Daddy plans to surprise these photos to her during her wedding! hahaha j/k (we think!)



Lola sent a horse to Katalia that day. Wonderful timing!



Too bad Mr. Horse can't stand on his own!



Thanks Lola for the cool horse!
