Brought to you by the letter K

Katie would like to share the spotlight for a moment.

Hi, this is Katie. I am three. My favorite color is purple. I like Batman. I like the hero part the best from the original Batman. I love all my friends! I like to read books. My favorite is Jasmine. She's also my favorite princess. I want Star Wars Legos. I like to play with Legos at church in my classroom. My mommy just made me a purple pillow.

Have a good day!

Gunner made me do it.

Yes, it has been awhile. Here's what we've been up to, mostly.

-Katie completed her first round of swim lessons and loved it.
-Ben had his appendix removed.
-Katie was sick and is sick again. Just a cold this time, most likely 24 hour flu last time.
-I completed 1 skirt, 2 sweaters, 1 monkey, some of a blanket, most of a sock, 1 prosthetic for breast cancer survivors, 1 Halloween costume of Weather Woman (a Backyardigans favorite). Can I just knit and crochet and sew instead of anything else? I would get so much more done!
-I got my hair cut.
-I dyed my hair purple. Seriously, purple.
-Katie got her hair cut.
-I am working on a costume for Katie so she can be in the Advent drama at church.
-I don't want to work this week. Three days work then two days holiday? Just give me the whole week.
-My idea of a group of people getting together to sit and talk and do something crafty is working! We've had several meetings and want more people to join us.
-My girlfriend from high school is having a wedding reception tonight.
-My sister-in-law is having a baby shower tonight.
-I wish I could be in two places at once. Have fun at the shower.
-I am tired. I want some time for me. I had a holiday earlier this month and ended up spending all my free time on Katie. Good thing I love her so much.
-I am having two Thanksgiving dinners in one day. Bleh. Do I get a nap?
-We are not exchanging Christmas gifts with extended family this year. I think we'll make a donation instead.
-I can't think of anything else right now.

Can you tell I need more sleep? I would get it if I wasn't such a light sleeper and Katie would sleep a little bit longer.
