Thank you so much to all the Lolos and Lolas (Grandpas and Grandmas) during our visit to California who gave Katelyn money! I used it to buy her first karaoke machine to begin training her to sing in church. I’m so proud of her progress! She gets very excited to turn on that microphone every day and sing. Her shyness is slowly being overshadowed by her enthusiasm for music.
For all those who see her at church every Sabbath, you won’t…

This is one of Katelyn’s favorite songs. She just loves shouting out those letters! I usually accompany her on the piano. But one time, while I was sitting on the floor with her, she walked to the piano with the mic in her left hand and began pressing random piano keys with her right hand as she sang her heart out. Guess she didn’t need me to play that time!

This one is my absolute favorite. I’ve listened to this a hundred times and I laugh every time. She sings this particular hymn constantly – in bed, while playing, at the mall, in the car. Everywhere but at church where she morphs into a silent flower.

I’m glad she actually learned this song correctly! Tatang sings it like this: “Hallelu, hallelu, hallelujah the Lord.” Ha ha.

I remember times in the past when Jennye would apologize for Katelyn being a girl. I guess she assumed that since she was not a boy, I would love her less. Not true at all. Katelyn is the love of my life (besides her mommy, of course!). I wouldn’t have it otherwise. She’s so precious, and when I’m on the road driving, I always find myself thanking God for giving us Katelyn Rose.
She’s definitely Daddy’s little girl. When she cries,…

We always remind Katelyn to pray before she eats. We’ve had limited success. She clasps her hands together, but we can’t get her to close her eyes. In fact, usually she clasps her hands and grins like crazy, her dimples burrowing in her checks. It’s extremely adorable, but obviously not praying.

I promise you guys that Katelyn is not sour-faced all the time! When she’s around a lot of people or if there are strangers in the room, she doesn’t demonstrate all the things she’s learning. Here’s a taste of what Daddy and Mommy get to see and enjoy!

Tatang was trying to get Katelyn, but she wanted to stay with me. I don’t know how old Katelyn was at this point, probably a little more than a year.
I took the opportunity to “tease” her as I rolled the camera. I put her on the other side of the room to see what she’d do.
Watch the video!

Watch as Kyle pulls Katelyn in her wagon… in his pink umbrella!!! This was in Galveston during our church picnic.

It’s amazing what children pick up without you even teaching them. In our house, we have a room dedicated to my piano. This is also the same room where we practice singing if we are assigned to do special music or something. Katelyn has identified this room as the music room and she knows exactly what we do there. She does this thing to emulate singing: she sings “Ahh-ahh-ahh-ahh” with two repeating notes. It sounds like “C-E-C-E-C.” The doors to…
