Spring Break

Tucker's brother Andrew and his wife Crystal had a baby at the end of January, so we went to Montana for spring break to meet her. At two months old, Alivia is already 13 pounds and she'll be giving Katelynn a run for her money in no time! Katelynn liked meeting her cousin, but she's a little jealous of mom and dad holding her, and we still need to work some more on being gentle!
We also got to go to the Helena Carosel with Katelynn's other cousins. It's really hard to get a good picture when the thing is spinning, but her are me, Katelynn, Aunt Spring, and Cousin Tithen enjoying the Montana wildlife.
Since Christmas, my dad (Grandpa Ben) has been busy hand carving a rocking horse for Katelynn. Isn't it awesome! Also thanks to Grandma Sue for the bridle and mane.
Katelynn looks pretty silly in this photo, but I wanted to show the size of this beast. She loves to rock back and forth on the horse, but she might be 5 before she can climb up on it herself!
Katelynn took an interest in Grandpa's golf stuff while were there, so he bought her a club and ball of her own. Probably won't be much longer before he's taking her to the driving range.
One day, she decided she would crawl through the railing. After discovered her hips were too wide, she couldn't figure out how to get her shoulders back through. Luckily I was sitting right by the camera. :)

That picture of Kate stuck is too funny! I can just see you all cracking up while the poor child struggles... ;) Seeing pictures of your parents house sure brings back memories!
