Cate just turned 22 months old yesterday. I am sad to think that my baby is only two months shy of turning two already. Cate continues to be a busy, busy girl. She is into everything! Â I was puzzled to find dirty spoons in our silverware drawer only to later realize that my little helper was putting her own spoons back away after mealtime. She loves to imitate everything she sees us doing or hears us saying. Her vocabulary is pretty amazing, I think. She probably has close to 50Â words already, or perhaps even more.
Cate eats almost anything we feed her. She even likes to dip her chips in salsa (after watching us do so, of course!) She has a healthy appetite and is always asking for more. Cate hasn’t latched on to any particular toy yet, although she does seem fond of a few teddy bears, a tiger, and a baby doll. She likes to “sing” the ABC song with me or with a toy computer that we have.
Cate may be a busy baby but she is also very sweet and cheerful. She is my little joy and my little sunshine. I love it when she walks up to me and leans into me for a brief hug before she is off to make another mess or conquer another milestone.
