My Family and Friends

My name is Katie and I am 11 years old. I wanted to have a blog so that I can write about all the things I do each day. Do you like the view from my room? It's in the side bar. I think its pretty...and there's a lot of things that go on out there. And I'll write about them!
Thanks to a little help from Mom this blog was made. Now pics of my family. : )
This is Chatty.
It must take a lot of energy to jump up on his sill because he had to take a couple of bites of kitty chow before he made it up there... LOL!

This is Mommy.

This is my Daddy.



These are my siblings.
Ian (Left), Jacob(Right), and the princess Ellie(Middle).
~~~~~~
My friends are Kimie O., Ella A., Sarah S., and Kim C.
My e-mail pals are Maddi and my Meme.
I can't believe school is in eight weeks. Summer seems like it just flies by.
It's scorching outside today. You could probably cook an egg out there.
Until next time buddies.

  1. That's a pretty pitiful picture you chose of me...my nose is all wrinkled up and my teeth look like Bucky the Beaver! :)
    Mommy loves you Kate....I know this will be an entertaining venture for you. And thank you for being kind about your "siblings".
    LOVE YOU!

  3. Hi Katie,
    Welcome to the world of blogging. I really enjoy all the blogs I read and I'll add you to my Google Reader so I don't miss any of your posts. I see that you live in Indiana. I live in Virginia. I've been reading your Mom's blog because of her Cross stitching projects. I love all types of needlework. Do you do any cross stitching or sewing? It is a great hobby and as a girl it helps to know how to sew. I want to wish you well in your blogging and look forward to hearing about what goes on outside your window.

    I have a little blog too. Don't write as much as I would like because I work Full time but if you'd like to check it out, it's
    guesswhosknitting.typepad.com. Oh, and I have cats too. Love them.

  5. Hi, Katie! You don't know me, I'm a friend of your Mommy's. I think she is very special--if you are anything like her, you are very special indeed. I like the photos you shared--you are so pretty--just like your Mommy. And, by the way, I like the photo you chose of your Mommy--it's very cute. I look forward to reading about you on your blog!!!

    Your new friend,

  8. Hi Katie,
    I love that pic of Bucky the Beaver, great choice! ;-) All the pics of your family are great & I'm looking forward to reading your blog. Your kitty Chatty looks exactly like the kitty we used to have named Smokey. We had him for 15 years and we miss him a lot. Give Chatty an extra treat for me okay? Enjoy the summer, it does go by very fast.

    BTW, you have some good songs on your playlist! :-)
    Hugs,
    Amy

  17. Glad to have you as a blogger. My new grand-daughter is also named Kaitee (spelled a little different) but she is only 11 weeks old, so she's not quite ready to start blogging yet. You can pave the way for her and other little ones. Show them how it's done. Have fun, CJ ok;-)

  29. Wow! You have quite a following already! Love your cool cat kitty wearing sunglasses. Have fun with your blog. I remember well when my daughter was 11. She had braces and wore glasses too and had super curly hair! Now she is 17 with perfect teeth, contact lenses and straightens her hair.

    Have a great summer! Yes, summers do go way to fast.

  36. Hey Katie, welcome to Blogland! I will be curious to see what you get up to. And your kitty cat, too! He's gorgeous. Love the pic where he's looking at the little light-switch thingy.
    Oh, and you DO have a lovely view from your bedroom window! Until next time!

  37. Welcome to the blogging world, Katie! You have a beautiful family, and your blog looks wonderful. My name is Siobhan, and I am American, but I live with my family on the west coast of Ireland, in a county called Clare. We don't have states here, but the country, which would fit into the state of Pennsylvania in size, is divided into counties. I live in the county town, which means that the county government offices are here, and we also have big markets where farmers come in from out in the country and sell their wares.

    I look forward to reading more blog entries from you!

  38. Hi Katie,
    Here's a comment from the Netherlands! I read your mom's blog and I'm also a stitcher. Welcome to blogworld! And I love your view from your window. Must be a great garden to play in! My DS Tijmen is jealous of it ;)

  39. Hi Katie! Great blog. Over here in the Netherlands, my kids haven't even started their summer break yet - school is out on July 10th. And then they only get 6 weeks off. What a gyp, huh? But they've never been to an American school and don't know what it would be like to get 3 months off, so they don't miss it.

    Happy blogging!
