Welcome to the Cutforth Family Blog. This blog provides insight into the lives of Dave, Shawnna and Kaitlyn Cutforth. Of course, since Kaitlyn is the newest (and cutest) member of our family, most of the focus is on her development and the fun things we do as parents.

Father's Day Fun

Like most years, we spent the whole weekend celebrating Father's Day (one day just isn't enough). On Saturday, we (me, Shawnna & Kaitlyn) got together with Great Grandpa & Grandma Schmidt, Grandma Cutforth, Uncle Dan, Aunt Kelley and Cousin Andrew. We hung out at Great Grandpa's house in Oakdale and ate lunch at a Chinese restaurant in town. Kaitlyn had fun waving at all the patrons in the restaurant and smiling at the waitress while the rest of us stuffed our faces with some good food. We went back to Great Grandpa's house to open presents, eat cake (we were also celebrating my and Great Grandpa's birthdays) and Kaitlyn played with Cousin Andrew's toy cars and tried on his baseball cap. A fun time was had by all.

Today, Grandma & Grandpa Pride came to our house for a good BBQ lunch. Kaitlyn demonstrated her walking ability (while holding onto her walker), her vocabulary (it makes sense to her) and her smothering ability (Grandpa was not seriously harmed). A funny moment happened when we were watching golf (there were no other sports on) and Tiger Woods made a birdie putt on the 18th hole to force a playoff. The crowd went wild and Kaitlyn lifted up both of her arms and yelled, "Yeaaaaaaaah!" The rest of us followed suit and it became a fun game. Check out the video below.


Thanks to everyone for making my first Father's Day special and memorable.
