Raisins. Check! Cranberries. Check! My pockets are stocked, Daddy. I’m ready to rumble.

Kathryn loves her pockets for one particular reason — the ability to stock them with her favourite snacks — raisins and cranberries. Photo taken November 10, 2005.

Hey now!

When Mommie or Daddy try to pull a fast one on Kathryn, she usually squeals “Hey now!”. I don’t recall what DJ or I did, but it looks like Kathryn is letting us know that she’s on to us. Photo taken October 30, 2005.

Well sweetheart - did you catch it? Daddy’s hungry. Photo taken July 29, 2005.
