Here are a few pictures from playing in the kitchen...the one in black and white is included to prove that she has top teeth. Very hard to discern in most photos, but they are there. Catherine was using this spoon to fetch a rubber ball she kept rolling underneath the oven. Who needs toys when you can play with the oven!?

Thank goodness she was de-hydrated

Oh toddlers.............
So I put Catherine down for her nap around 1:15 PM today, but she kept talking and talking (not typical) and so finally at 2:15 PM she was saying "mommy" (over and over again)...I decide to go in. She is totally naked and announces to me proudly, "Mommy, I naked." The room spells like the tell tale stench of poop. I look around and alll her "bed gear" (including Pooh Bear, Pink Bear, Girl Bear, Blankie Bear, Cinderella, Arielle - The Mermaid, her paci and her blankie) are thrown out of the bed. Along with all her gear are about 11 decent "tootsie roll" like poopies. Lovely! On a more hydrated day, this would be more mushy poop, but thank goodness she appears to not have had very much to drink today.
I picked up all the poop, as Catherine says, "Mommy pick up poopies." Then I clean her up and put on her diaper (SHAME on me for putting the diper on forwards instead of backwards - I have become complacent as normally when she is sleeping I put it on backwards). Then I have to re-make her bed which has pee and poop in it. The whole time, I am explaining as soon as this bed is made, you are getting back into it. She hands me the sheet and says, "Mommy, I help make bed." Then she puts all her "bed gear" back in and I put her in her bed and know I am writing this with my fingers crossed that she'll sleep!

We could not be more excited about the Panthers victory on Sunday. Catherine shared in the excitedment and celebrated by wearing beads and running all over the house. We look forward to watching the NFC Championship at Dawn's next Sunday. Thanks to Dawn for hosting!

What a fun day watching the Panthers win! We believe in the power of the frog! See everyone next Sunday.
However, Bryan also believes it could have been Patrick's shirt with the horseshoes on it, any which way, Panthers rolled....

2006 A New year


I will try and put a few more posts up in 2006.
Here is an updated picture of Catherine!
Here is Catherine sorting through her diapers, she likes to pick out the character on her diaper that she will wear for the day.
