New Pictures of Catherine

Cate is 18 months old now. Brian and I have been concerned about her development, but have come to realize that she is her own person. While Frances very early on had a lot of words, if only to let us all know who was boss, Cate has only the words she needs to express delight, the emotion she experiences most frequently. So, while she doesn't say Mommy or bottle or juice, she can say cool and wow and whoa and mine and run. And here she is being super silly.

Here she is doing two of her favorite things: brushing her teeth and looking through the hole of something.

She's on top of the world here (the world being Mommy's shoulders.)

She's brushing her teeth here.

And here she is very proud of her teeth brushing skills.
