The Patrickisims

#1 Never expect things to be easy.

#2 Leaving Katelynn or Abigail alone invites disaster.

#3 Never give up, never surrender.

#4 Even though life is what you make of it,there is only so much you can do with finite resources.

#5 You are only as sick as you let yourself believe.

#6 Just because you can do something, does not mean you should agree to do it. (Jed's new work motto) :-)

Disneyland Scrapbook

I finally started scrapbooking so I decided that I would share the pages that I have done so far.

Oven's aren't play things

Katelynn decided she wanted to investigate the inside of the oven, so while mom wasn't looking our little curious child put her hands on the inside of the oven door.  

Carrie took our little one to the doctor who bandaged her up.  Not very timely since Katelynn has begun grabbing everything with her little hands. 

I don't think that Katelynn will touch the Oven for a very long time.

Don't looks say it all


Mom decided to play dress up with Katelynn to see how her Halloween costume worked.  She sent the photo to the whole family including me.  Doesn't Katelynn look just happy to be dressed up like that?

Playing with Mickey


Our family went to Disneyland the last week of August with Grandma and Grandpa Patrick to visit Aunt Tia and Uncle Richie. Katie was able to fly for her second time in her young life. We stayed in the Fairfield Marriott right across the street from the park so we could see the lights of Disneyland from our balcony and see the fireworks. We really enjoyed spending time with Tia and Richie and to see them in action at the Jungle Cruise and Indiana Jones. Richie was even able to get us priority seating for the fireworks, which were amazing. Katie enjoyed meeting Eeyore, Mary Poppins and Bert, Mickey Mouse and especially Minnie. We were also in the park to feel the earthquake that hit Southern California. It was so fun to watch Grandma and Grandpa try to get a picture of Katie's every reaction.
