Sometimes when I look at Kate I can't believe how she's grown. She's a little girl now, and a beautiful one at that.

We celebrated Easter in Houston with our good friends, the Wilsons. Here Kate is reading Abby's Easter book to Nathan while Abby poses for the camera.

Although here a little unsure of her new surroundings, Abby is now ready--how can this be--for Kate's booster. And Kate's making the transition to a standard chair.

Last week Abby began feeding herself Cheerios, and now it's the highlight of each meal. When she's ready for them, she sort of presigns by gesturing the Cheerio pickup.

It looks a little like Abby's trying to tame this wild stallion. She's, in fact, trying to figure out what Eyeore's ears are up to?

Abby is reaching, reaching, always reaching. As when she gets it, she wants something else, just beyond reach.
