Kate at Two




Dear sweet little Kate, Kater, Keetos, baby, Kateorade, sweet cheeks, 
You are two and oh how you melt my heart. I wish I could capture every little sweet thing you do but it's impossible so I try to just absorb as much as I can and get some of it on video. 
Kate at two years old you are walking and running as if you have been doing it from day one. We are so grateful and relieved that you decided to get on those two feet. It's been amazing. You try so hard to keep up with your two older siblings and you are doing a pretty good job at it! 
You are so smart and developing beautifully. You are an incredible chatter box and you are forming new sentences every day. It's amazing to watch you progress. You love yelling STOP whenever something is bugging you or you don't want to do something. Or how you say OK is innocently when we are telling you something. My goodness it warms my heart. 
You are a growing little thing at two years old. You Weigh 24lbs 2oz (18th percentile) height is 33.1in (29th Percentile) and you are my chunky little thing. Gosh I love you.
You are talking like crazy repeating every word we say and forming more and more sentences every day. You love saying "Don't" and Paci and blanky are hand in hand at all times. I gotta tell ya Kate, you are my baby so you are getting away with a lot more than your two other siblings did. That pacifier is one of those things. I just don't have the heart to take it away from you. I swore I would never be that mother that allows their child to have a pacifier past the age of one. And here I am... TOTALLY WORTH IT! Though it is probably time to start thinking about giving it up. I just can't yet though. You love it so so much!!!! You sleep with so many blankets in your crib. I have to hide them because if they are in sight you want it in your crib. 
You love dolls and are obsessed with books. We would read books all day if you had it your way. You love to explore and we find you locked in closets all the time. You don't mind. You are just happy playing. 
Little one you are a bit OCD and like things in an order and straight. You hate dirty things and hate being in diapers. You are so ready to be potty trained and we hopefully will get there soon. I don't really know when but sometime. You are also our longest sleeping baby in a crib. We really have no rush to get you out like we did with your other siblings but we assume a big bed will be coming soon. I'm just not ready to part with you being a baby yet. Purely selfish reasons. I need you to stay my baby forever!!
You LOVE LOVE LOVE "Masha and Bear" Not just the show but all little toys. You would play Masha and Bear all day. It's cute to watch you get excited about it. You also LOVE LOVE LOVE "Wheels on the bus" We think it's so funny when you try to ask "Alexa" to play it and how you get so upset when she doesn't listen to you. Hahaha you just roll your arms over and over and shhhhhh the machine. 
Kate, all in all you are just mommy's little buddy. It's so fun watching you grow and progress and it breaks my heart all at the same time. 
I hope you keep your sweet and sassy spirit and stay my little snuggle bug. I just love you dearly. I don't really know how else to say it. I look forward to you waking up everyday and you are such a light in our lives. 
We hope you just know how loved you are in our house!! 
Love you sweet girl!
Love, Mom
