As promised, we're trying to take portraits of Katie every month. This time, we made our way to Cherry Hill, N.J., so that the same photographer who took her terrific two-month pictures could do it again. (He was in King of Prussia last month.)
Two outfits and a cute hoodie later, we had some real keepers:
Stay tuned for month 4!

Katie's Christening
On November 2, Katie was christened (baptized) in the Episcopal Church.
Sriyesh's brother, Priyesh, is her godfather and Anne's oldest friend, Julie, is her godmother. All four grandparents and Julie's husband, Travis, visited for the weekend and the celebration.
Katie was an angel during the service, sleeping almost the whole time, except when the water was being poured on her. Amazingly, none of the seven babies being baptized cried.
We scheduled the christening a couple of months before Katie was born to make sure she'd be able to fit into her gown, the same one worn by Anne, her cousins, her father and uncle. It's more than 60 years old! It fit just fine, with just the top button undone.
Now the challenge is getting our act together on Sundays to get her to church!

Katie's photo shoot
We plan to try to take Katie for monthly portraits during her first year. It's going to be amazing watching her grow and change! We missed Month 1, but Month 2 more than made up for it.
Our favorite is this shot of her lifting her head. Just a few days after this picture was taken, she learned to raise her head and shoulders off the ground and look around -- something we'll be sure to capture next month.
Katie smiles a lot now; in fact, when we picked her up from her first day of daycare, we found her smiling adoringly at one of her teachers, Miss Connie. Here's an example of her little grin; more are below.
Somehow we didn't get around to taking pictures of Katie on Halloween, but luckily she wore her costume for some of her portraits.
By the end of her photo shoot, Katie was exhausted.
