Kaitlyn is SO excited!!

Yesterday, June 17th, was a HUGE day in the lift of Kaitlyn!! Her Uncle Bill is no longer in the hospital - and it appears that his chemo therapy and stem cell transplant was a success!! Yeah!! Now that Bill is out of the hospital, Kaitlyn can finally go visit him in Houston and meet her uncle and snuggle with her grandma again! We plan on going to Houston over 4th of July weekend - so that will be Kaitlyn's first airplane experience! We can't wait!! Below is a picture of Kaitlyn thanking God for Bill's success!!

We had many big adventures this last 2 weeks! First, Auntie Dorothy came to visit from Ireland!! YEAH!! Kaitlyn, Dorothy and I had such a wonderful week while she was here - we just hung out and visited, lots of snuggling with her Auntie!

Then Kaitlyn took her first road trip up to the Chicago North suburbs! Dorothy came with us as she flew out of O'Hare. So Dorothy, Kaitlyn, Sammy (our German Shepard) and I packed up the car and headed up north. It was quite a sight! :) We had a fun trip though and stopped to visit Auntie Elizabeth at Monarch (a great flower and furniture store in Northern Indiana). Kaitlyn was SO SO good the entire trip - she just slept the entire time, woke up to eat in Northern Indiana and then went back to sleep for the rest of the trip. We arrived at the Nagy's and had such a wonderful weekend. Kaitlyn has a beautiful nursery up at her grandparent's home (I will need to post a picture of it!) She loved her crib and giraffe mobile! Kaitlyn got to meet her Auntie Chris, Uncle Brent and her 2 fabulous cousins Emma and Reagon. They were visiting from Portland! She also got me meet a lot of Ryan's family - his Papa and aunts/uncles cousins as the Nagy's had a lovely BBQ for everyone to meet up! After the BBQ, Kaitlyn and I headed to O'Hare to drop of Auntie Dorothy (SAD!) and then went into downtown Chicago to visit Auntie Susie (Yeah!). Susie is my best friend from high-school and just had a little girl - Ava Arnold. Kaitlyn and Ava are destined to be best friends like their mommies!!

Although we had so much fun on our trip up north, we were all so excited to drive home to see Daddy on Sunday night! He was so excited to see us as well!!

Then on Thursday, we had a special visit from my best friend from college Janelle and her adorable little girl, Riley!! We had SO much fun seeing them - Janelle just relocated from Connecticut to Cincinnati, so we are so happy that we will see each other much more often now - it is only a 2 hour drive!Unfortunately, we did not take any pictures - So silly!! We will take some during our next play date next week as Kaitlyn and I are going to visit!

This past weekend, we had a visit from Grandpa and Grandma Nagy - as usual we all had so much fun - especially little Kaitlyn! Uncle Mike and his puppy Jack stopped by too which is always fun!

Yesterday, Kaitlyn and I met my good friend Minju for coffee at Starbucks - we had so much fun catching up! I am so happy Minju has moved back to Indianapolis from NYC!!

My dad retrned from 2 weeks in Houston on Sunday so we are all so happy to have him home! We have dinner together everynight and Kaitlyn always greets him with a big smile - she missed him a lot!!

It has been a busy couple of weeks and Kaitlyn has started to meet lots of special people in her life! We have some more fun dates planned in the upcoming week - and mommy is going to join Stroller Strides in Carmel so that I can start to get back in shape and meet some more new mom's as well! I already have so many mom's and good friends though that I am excited to start hanging out with more now that life is returning to normal!! :)
