Play Dates!

Jonathan and Kate are sitting a little too close for Daddy's comfort.

My second Holy Name Fish Fry. It was a hard day at the office, I had to sleep!

I love to read books. My Grandpa built me the cool dollhouse bookshelf behind me. Literacy is very important in our home.

Daddy bought a labeler. Oh brother!

Jonathan Strovers, Colin Hawkins and I enjoying a Saturday night at the Hawkins' new, beautiful home. We had so much fun. Jack Hawkins was quite the entertainer.

Playing at Jack and Colin's home. They have the coolest toys!

Valentine's Day

We attended Daddy's one year anniversary party of his radio show, The Weekly Grind. We are loyal listeners to his program on 1180AM-- Saturday mornings from 10-12. We are proud of you!

I'm a celebrity, this photo is on Omaha.com. Thanks Uncle Aaron for the shirt and Grandpa Bob for the newspaper from my birth date.

Showing off my four teeth.

My new skirt from Addison.

We celebrated Valentine's Day with a delicious prime rib at the Dauel's.

Enjoying a Valentine's Day brunch at Lisa's Radial Cafe with my dear friend, Meyer.

Enjoying my first fish fry at Holy Name. Did you know my Grandpa Bob is the Mayor of the Fish Fry?

Let it snow

My first snow...in early OCTOBER. Way too early!

Grandma and Grandpa Shearer visited me from Ohio.

I loved visiting with Grandma and Grandpa.

There has been too much snow!

Wrigley is wondering why I am in the snow with her.

Growing Up!

I slept for an hour and 10 minutes today at nap time, I usually sleep for 15 minutes.

I love sitting up!

One of my closest friends, Jonathan Strovers. My friends, Blake and Sarah, made an amazing dinner for my parents and the Strovers. I had a blast playing with Jonathan and their dog, Lola!

My mom loves to visit me at lunch everyday!

Mommy had graduate class this weekend, so Daddy and I played all weekend long. We did meet Mommy for lunch both days.

Mommy loves to put hats on me. Aunt Wendy buys me the cutest outfits!

I'm 6 months old!

Happy Thanksgiving! Grandma Kaye knitted this cool hat for me, she is so talented.

My expressive eyebrows clearly came from my daddy. Dad was annoyed that my mom was taking too many pictures, can you blame her?!

I'm a pretty princess. Cousin Addison and I wore our princess outfits on Christmas Eve.

Merry Christmas! We were snowed in on Christmas day with nearly 20 inches of snow on the ground. I also tried cereal for the first time, I did not like it too much.

O! What a Baby! I LOVE Omaha because it is my Homaha!

Big girl! My first time in a high chair. Mom and I went out to lunch with Aunt Brenda after the New Year.

Happy New Year! My New Year's Eve party with Will Freeland, Stella Neal and Jackson Seger.

DJ Krazy K8

A nice Saturday evening with Aunt Megan. I can't wait to meet my newest playmate next fall, I hope he/she is as cool as McKenna.

I'm a little love bug. Aunt Brenda bought this outfit for me when I had my 6 month birthday. No, I am not spoiled...I am loved!

Just another Sunday in the day in the life of Kate Shearer.

End of the year fun!

Daddy and I are ready to open up some presents on Christmas Eve.

The Shearer family on Christmas Eve at the Passmore's.

Our first Christmas!

My first basketball game. We sat in the suite with Grandpa Bob, I was really into the game the first half.

A few of my friends out to lunch on a Saturday. Just a few babies were born this summer.

Go Big Red!

My first wedding was Ryan and Laura O'Connor's. It just happened to be at Morning Star Church, where I attend daycare/school.

Visiting Santa Claus.

Visiting with Grandma Kaye and Grandpa Bob, they spoil me!

Mom is going back to work :(

Happy Halloween!

Visiting Great Grandma Wane on Halloween.

This outfit is too small for me, Mom!

I was screaming during my baptism, it was a little stressful for my mom and dad.

Hanging out in the hospital with Daddy on Damon's birthday.

Happy Halloween, Damon and Kate!

Jonathan and I playing, he kept trying to hold my hand!

T-Fitch gave me a stimulating tour of his jersey collection!
I'm crying because my mom is going back to work tomorrow.
We've had so much fun together the past 15 weeks!
