Hello everyone!

Where to start....

Well, Katie's drama class seems to be going well. She's in a play in November and she has the part of the mama pony. She has a few lines to say and seems to have them down already. She is the mama of three little ponies, so it should be right up her alley since she's always mothering everyone. She can take the most innocuous item and say "ooohhh, look at the baaabbbyyy". Everything is a baby. She's obsessed.

For Christmas she has requested a baby that poops. I expressly stated that there was no way I was changing a dolls diaper. She assured me that she would change the diapers. At least I can put away a doll if she doesn't take care of it.. which leads me to the dog.

Sherlock is growing up but is not quite trained. I mean, I think he's house broken. I wouldn't know for sure because he isn't allowed to run around the house yet, he's either outside or in his crate unless JC is home - usually by himself - or after Katie goes to bed. I'm hoping that with winter coming, someone, ahem, will take some time to train him and get him used to being out WITH Katie around. And getting Katie used to Sherlock being around also.

I have about 100 pictures of Katie's first day of school, courtesy of Cynthia, who decided to play Papparazzi that morning. I won't make you look at all of them, lol, but here are a few.

Lining up for the first time:

A little angst about the first day... for both of us:

Well, that was a short moment. For her.

Okay, that's all for now. I'm sure I'll write more later, but I have to think back to what has been coming out of her mouth lately. LOL
