summer


Last week I bought these sandals for Kate and I told her that they were for summer. Kate is now a very confused little girl... today I put her sandals on and she says "yay, now we go to summer!" She thinks that since she is wearing her sandals it is time to go to somewhere called "summer"- Help.

a day in the life of kate

Kate is getting so grown up lately, she tells me every day that she is ready for the baby to come out. I think she has it all figured out. She has started carrying around her baby and feeding it a bottle and changing its diaper, then she puts it in the baby swing that we have set up so the baby can take a nap. I just hope that she will be so helpful when the real baby comes home.

One of her new favorite things to do is to go bowling. It is hilarious, she puts the bowling ball on the floor and tries to push it, but usually it stops a few feet down the lane so Chad has to go get it and help her push the ball so it will make it all the way down.
And of course she is still obsessed with dora, luckily for my sanity she has now expanded her favorite cartoons to include a few more. Since we have had to do some re-arranging of our rooms to make a babys room, Kate now has all of her toys in her bedroom and has become very excited about playing kitchen and house in her room, which also helps with my sanity because it means less time watching "toons".
Kate is definitely a girly girl. She wants to play dress up every day, but she needs to have her jewelry, crown, purse and shoes along with the dress (or a hat in this case). It is really cute because she now has a friend- (Savannah) that moved in the apartment above us and she wants to play with her every day, they get along really well and both enjoy dressing up and playing anything girly. It makes me feel so old that I have a child old enough to enjoy playing with friends, and I go in to peek on her and she tells me to go away because they are playing. Time goes by so fast, so I guess it is time for the baby to come so I can have someone to mother again
