Kate's real birthday

It was interesting to have a birthday on Sunday!  But also very relaxing since the party was over and we didn't go anywhere.  So here she is opening a few presents before church:
 Books and more books!
 This was her laughing face when she opened the Star Wars bike seat cover from Grandma and Grandpa- who knew they made those things??

 And after church trying out her new roller skates from Mom and Dad- don't worry, we bought her knee and elbow pads too haha!
 And she spent a very happy afternoon reading new books and doing her sticker dolly dress-up book. :) Glad she's not too grown up for that!  
 Then Aunt Elizabeth and Uncle Kjarom came over for dinner (Kate wanted ravioli) and more chocolate cake!!  Yum.  
My 3 favorite words to describe Katelyn right now at age SEVEN are:
SWEET
She is always doing nice things for me and Eric and Owen, and even Whitney.  She likes to cuddle even though she's way too big and bony!  She is very kind and polite.
SILLY
Oh my she is so silly.  Always laughing about something, making up a joke or telling a funny story.
SMART
The girl reads at least a book a day; three or four if they're short chapter books.  And she is logical to a fault- maybe she gets that from her dad??  haha.  She's going to be smarter than me in no time!  She loves to learn and devours science and history books.  She's always telling me about something new she learned.  
So cute.
How grateful I am that Katelyn was born first.  We love her so much!
