Amidst the chaos that has become our lives, I squeezed in a last minute visit with our friend Angie and her newly expanded family. Kurt and Angie and big sister Katie recently welcomed little Julia Ann to their family on May 25th. She is a relaxed, though squeaky little peanut of a girl, with the hippest hairstyle this side of Iowa.
And as snuggling is near the top of her “can do” list, I was happy give Angie’s arms a break as often as possible. Especially after Ang accidently spilled beans on her head at dinner.
Seriously! Let the Mama eat! Though I can’t say I did much better during dessert, as Julia just narrowly missed being dripped with chocolate-y ice cream. Goodness how we were laughing! Poor baby!
And Miss Katie is growing faster than I can even fathom!
At just two she is counting, knows her ABCs and loves her little sister more than just about anything on the planet (though oatmeal and her blankie also rank pretty high).
It was a bit of a whirlwind of a visit, and about two days too short, but it was sweet nonetheless. And I’m already looking forward to seeing this fun family again soon!

Great post! Kate is still talking about the ‘other Julia’ and her visit. And she really liked the pictures.
