All Things Pink

Kate is talking incessantly these days.  Some of her most common phrases/sentences are:

  1) "What did you say?"

  2) "What are you doing?" (many variations of this one, "What's he/she doing?" etc)

  3) "Want to watch Beauty and the Beast??"

  4) "Where are you going?"

  5) "I want TWO teddy grahams!"  (this actually means, "I want many teddy grahams in a snack cup")

  6) "Watch this trick, Mommy!"

  7) "I don't like that" / "I like that"

  8) "I want applesauce!"

  9) "Daddy / Mommy hold you."

  10) "Kate do it by herself." 

Oh my goodness and many, many more, but these are the ones that are coming to mind tonight.  

  

Kate and I were upstairs playing in her room while the boys were napping the other day and I started getting that feeling of needing to dress up a little girl.  These pics were the result:

This pink bear has slept with Kate since she was a tiny newborn in her crib...still has to have the bear at night and for naps  

Joe had a dinner to attend tonight for work so I was gearing up for a night alone with the kiddos when my dad surprised me at the front door just as the boys' bath time was about to begin.  So sweet of Papa to swing by and help.  I bathed John first.  When I brought him out to swap babies w/ Dad I walked up on a funny picture.  Papa, Kate, and Matthew were all lying on the blanket on the floor with Kate's fisher price doctor kit.  She had the stethoscope around her neck and had the otoscope looking in Matthew's ears as he laid on the floor laughing and kicking.  She assured me that he checked out ok before I scooped him up to go give him a bath.  "He looks good."  Then I laid John down on the blanket for his "check-up."  Good thing we have a doctor in the family! ;)
