Yep, it's here already. Anissa goes back to work this week. So we've spent these last few weeks visiting friends and family, going to the beach, running errands, and just generally hanging around.
Katie's second tooth has broken through but more are on the way. We still feel the lower two trying to make an appearance. She hasn't let the pain slow her down though. Mommy taught her to do somersaults and she loves flipping over on the couch, the lawn, anywhere.
The beach has been good for Kate and her parents this Summer. Kate loves sand and chasing the waves as they crash over her toes.
Her vocabulary has really started to expand as well. She says, "Sit, open, down, 'Blues Clues" and the ever popular "No." Kate likes her new table and chairs. She sits and eats, draws, plays, and sometimes falls off the chair. She has of course learned to push it over to the kitchen island so she can stand on the table and reach the kitchen counter tops.
Daddy tried to teach Katie the value of money in today's economy, but Kate likes sorting the money more. Now if we can teach her to put the coins into a roll, she would have a valuable skill. Kate did learn "Heads or Tails." She likes throwing them more than checking which side landed face up, but it's progress.
