Funfit

We've been going to Funfit class for the past several weeks. Its a little bit of singing, dancing, story telling, musical instruments and Caitlyn's favorite, the parachute. Sadly, our session ended on Monday but we start a new session in 2 weeks and Caitlyn is looking forward to it already. Here are a few highlights.

Our New Home

Check out our progress.

Amazingly, this has all occurred in two and a half months. Guess we better start packing!

St. Patty's Day Fun

We went to the Gaithersburg St. Patrick's Day Parade with some of Caitlyn's BFF's. The parade was a little strange with Latin dancers and policticians and even a plumber but at least there were some Irish dancers and a few bagpipers. Although it was pretty chilly, the girls had a great time and Caitlyn won a kite on the Potbelly's prize wheel.

Newest Camalier Family Member

We are so excited to announce that we have a new addition to the family. Meet Shishie the Fishie! He's a beautiful Betta and he loves his new home and we all love him. Caitlyn loves to say hi and bye to him everytime we come and go.

Smiley Face

Our big girl is getting good at smiling for the camera.

First Haircut

Caitlyn's hair was getting so long that we decided it was time to get her first cut. She was a trooper with only a few tears and once she was on Mommy's lap and watching Elmo, things were peachy.

H-O-K-I-E-S

Caitlyn can't get enough of the Hokie Bird. They are buddies. They love to root for the Hokies.

What a difference a year makes

First Craft

Look out Martha Stewart! Caitlyn's first craft at daycare was this cute little Christmas ornament. She helped by pushing the letters onto the ornament. We think it turned out rather well.

Got My Hand In My Pocket

Caitlyn has discovered pockets. She's loving them.

January Thaw and Happy New Year!

A new year brought balmy 50 degree weather to our area. After a month of freezing, we wanted to take advantage of the relatively warm weather and headed to the C&O Canal to take a long walk.

Miss Caitlyn Goes to Washington

The holiday week gave us an opportunity to go to DC and see the US Botanic Garden and the Postal Museum. The gardens were amazing and the museum was suprisingly very interesting. Did you know they have Amelia Earhart's personal stamp collection? Caitlyn mostly enjoyed running around in front of the Capitol.

Christmas Morning

It looks like Caitlyn made the nice list this year. Santa left several goodies for her. The play kitchen was a big hit right away. The Tickle Me Elmo was very exciting until he started moving. She was freaked out for awhile but she's warmed up to him now.

Caitlyn Picks a Tree

We bundled up and headed over to Butler's Orchard to pick out a tree. We love their hot apple cider and getting to drive through the creek on the way to the trees. Its quite the expierence. It was a fun day and we found the perfect tree.
