Katie's Favorite Things These Days


1. Daddy
Kate and Dad have been enjoying each other's company more these days. Often when Kurt comes home it is to a gleeful greeting followed by time spend bouncing on the bed while Dad changes out of his work clothes. Kate and Dad have also been enjoying reading books together. Here they are after we prepared our corn for winter. We were out looking at the cows come in to eat the leftovers.

2. Corn
Corn is one of Kate's favorite foods these days. She likes it cooked on the cob the best. Hopefully she'll like the stuff we froze for winter just as well.

3. Phone
When the phone rings you'll often hear her say, "Phone!" And she takes every opportunity to act like Mom and talk on the phone... "Yes...no...moo...hi...bye-bye"

4. Cows
Cows are Katie's favorite animal. She would LOVE to see cows every day and could spend countless minutes watching them. When asked what the cow says she'll reply, "Boooooo" and lick her lips like she's seen the cows do. Its pretty funny! We're lucky to have so many friends with cows for entertainment!

5. Climbing
Kate is mastering the art of climbing though she sometimes gets stuck up on things. Getting down is a bit trickier. Here she's climbed up one of the kitchen chairs. She thinks its about time she lose her booster seat and use a big chair just like Mom and Dad.

6. Blanket
Katie still love her blanket aka baaa (not to be confused with baba, what the sheep says). Thankfully we have a couple of blankets on hand so we can usually have a clean one handy for snuggling.

OH my goodness, so the bouncing on the bed, the time reading with daddy, the blankie, almost everything you said. Gemma to a T!!! Unbelievable. Hang in there with the tantrums. Every kid has their moments, be consistent and loving and you'll work through it together!
