A Month of Firsts

Our July and August have blurred together in several fun outings and lots of home improvement.

Mommy and Kara went to the Boulder County Fair with some friends at the beginning of August.  It was Kara's first visit to a county fair.  Everyone had a great time visiting all the different farm animals.  The cows were especially docile for the little girls.  Kara also had her first pony ride!  Check out the video to see how she did. :)

Kara also had her first haircut and her first visit to the dentist!  She watched Mommy get her haircut first, then was very excited to get it done herself.  She even insisted on getting a shampoo just like Mommy.  Kara did equally well at the dentist's office.  She loved the chair and the cherry toothpaste, but her favorite part was the video they showed her of dogs going to the dentist before her visit.  She told Daddy all about it that evening.

On the home front, we had new windows installed.  So far we're very happy with them, and they'll definitely be a great addition this winter.  Daddy and Grandpa S. also tore down a wall and an attached deck.  Good times!

Kara will be starting her first classes without parent participation in September.  We'll let you know how that goes!

Some recent Kara Quotes:

"Daddy, you have Kara in your eyes" - looking at her reflection in Daddy's eyes one morning.

"I dreamed about eating cookies today.... Dreams about cookies are good!"

"I am going to draw a picture of you and me!"

"I love you, Mommy" (Mom: "I love you too, Kara")  "I know.  I am in your heart."
