Yeah!

Kate has a nice list of words going now: baby, mama, dada, eye, hi, ball, throw and yeah. She will answer any question you ask her "yeah." Kate, are you a puppy? Yeah. Kate, do you want to go to Alaska? Yeah. Kate, do you want to eat snails? Yeah. (Actually she doesn't want to eat anything...). Recently it has been turning into "yes" instead. She can point to mommy's eyes and nose. She constantly takes her shoes and socks off, so we had to switch to tie laces. She has also learned how to pull the chairs back from the dining room table and climb up them and onto the table. She continues to be low on the weight chart.
Kate was Little Red Riding Hood for Halloween, a beautiful costume made by Granny Annie, with me as Grandma and Loren as the Wolf. We went to our neighboorhood costume contest, our church Trunk or Treat and then to the Perio Halloween party at a fellow resident's house. Kate was up way past her bedtime, but was a great sport through it all.
