Happy Father's Day, Greg!
Greg is a great dad to Kate. He plays with her, makes her giggle, and often gets in trouble with mom right alongside her. He and Katie have a special relationship; in fact, the other day, I let Greg sleep in and started Kate's breakfast before he got up. When he came into the kitchen about a half an hour later, Katie got so excited she practically bounced out of her high chair to climb up into his arms. I rarely warrant that kind of excitement! However, it's just a typical reaction for dad and his girl. Happy Father's Day, Greg!
And to think, this is what you - and Kate! - looked like on your first Father's Day:

Helping Dad
A couple of days ago, Greg noticed that the baby gate we had installed had a hole that was a little too small for the latch to go into. He went into handyman mode and decided to fix it using a drill he had in the garage. This whole process immediately interested Kate, who recognized some of these off-limits toys daddy happened to be using for his project. She scooted over to him and began to entertain herself, her dad, and me. She pointed and jabbered to Greg about what he should be doing to fix the gate. She led the whole project, or so she thought. The girl likes to be in charge; I wonder who she gets that from?

Water Baby!
Our next-door neighbors, the Hartmans, have a pool and last week, they invited us over for a swim. Greg and Katie jumped at the chance to have a little water fun. At first, Kate really didn't like the water. She screamed and wanted out immediately. After a few minutes though, she warmed up to being in the water. I think it helped that dad held her close and played with her the whole time. She ended up loving the pool time and stayed in for almost an hour, playing and splashing. I think that this might actually be something she gets from me; I was always a water baby and Greg definitely wasn't.
