Our Little Star

Cate loves music and she likes to sing. We got video of her tonight performing her rendition of Twinkle, Twinkle Little Star.

A Photo Shoot at the Park

Cate and I went to the park last Saturday. I struck a deal with her (yes, with my 2-year-old daughter) that she could swing, if I could take her picture. I think I got a good one! I hope everyone likes this because you may see it again --- perhaps on notecards, Christmas cards or gifts for you :)

Cate with the camera

Cate has finally figured out the mystery of the camera. It's practically impossible to get a good picture of her because she recognizes the camera immediately when it comes out. For her birthday weekend, she commandeered the camera and took pictures. She walked around saying "cheese" and "smile" to everyone, while holding the camera. It was very cute (even if it make getting her photo difficult).

When she ran out of people to photograph, she started taking pictures of objects. She would say "cheese table" or "cheese book."

Birthday Update

As usual, I haven't had much time to update anyone on what has been going on with us. The biggest news is Cate's birthday. We had a great birthday weekened with her (August 18 and 19). Our girl now has more books that just about anyone I know. We practically have our own library. She loves to read her books, so it's perfect for her.
