Happy Father's Day!

We had great weather for Father's Day this year. This morning Kaylee helped me make some coffee cake muffins and apple juice. She helped to pour the different ingredients into the bowl and then she helped to stir it. She was very helpful in sampling the crumble topping to make sure it was sweet enough! We put the muffins into the oven and she immediately wanted up in her high chair to eat. She didn't understand that they take time to bake. She then helped me make some apple juice. She was able to pour water into the pitcher and stir that as well. This she was able to sample immediately and she seemed quite pleased to have made it herself!

We went to church this morning and then Kaylee took a nap when we got home. Once she got up we were able to get outside and have some fun. She was wearing her very adorable spring dress today and she just LOVED wearing it. Up until now, she would cry anytime I tried putting a dress on her. But today she stood in front of the mirror with a big smile, adoring herself. Throughout the day she would lift her skirt and say "cute!" She also traded in her toy dog for a dolly. What a little girly-girl she was today! She was so sad when I had to change her into her pajamas tonight. I guess I'll have to start shopping for more dresses.

Anyway, back to our outing. First Kaylee took us on a short walk. She wanted to push her dolly around in a stroller. So cute!


Next we took Kaylee to Whatcom Falls park here in Bellingham. She said her "oh WOW" again when she saw the big waterfall. We took a short walk around the park and stopped to see the young salmon in the fish hatchery.

Last of all we went to a "swing slide" park. Kaylee was being so photogenic, I just couldn't help myself with the camera. What a perfect Father's Day!
