More felt food

I couldn't resist posting some more of the felt food I made recently. These were for my two nephews who like Chick-fil-a :)

First ski injury

Kate took a ski boot to the face this afternoon while at the ski lodge. A man coming out of a door didn't see her and almost trampled her, luckily, only her face was scratched up, but she looks pretty rough and has a huge goose egg on her forehead and a fat lip. The first aid people at the lodge called the ski patrol who came and inspected her and cleaned off her cuts. Otherwise, she is having a ball playing in the snow and playing with Nana and Papa!

Felt Food!

Meet my latest obsession: felt food:) I've been making various play food for Kate's Christmas present this year and I'm having so much fun! I have a "wish list" of nearly 50 different items I'd eventually like to make...right now I'm on about #15. Loren thinks I'm crazy. These are a great project for me because they are creative and I can work on them on the bus on my way to school. I'm hoping Kate will enjoy them! I'll post occasionally with my progress:)

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.

Coloring

Clear your refridgerator doors-Kate has just started to show an interest in coloring. It is so cute to see her concentrate on her artwork! She uses both hands and talks to herself. I'm hoping to get some large paper to spread out on the floor. I was really surprised to see her hold her pen correctly, as well. We didn't show her, she just did it!
