CATE


CATE, the great-grandgirl, is growing like a WEED...
she is here and there and everywhere......never sits still for a minute.
That's just the way it's supposed to be......
She loves to play like all little girls do.
and loves her PINK MOTORCYCLE.
I think she likes PINK, period.

The following is taken from Cate's mom

jammies

My girl is very rarely cold. I think the standard rule for dressing children for playtime in cold weather is to dress them in one more layer than what you wear. But I do the opposite. Usually I wear one more layer than she does.
Anyway, today she was eating a well-balanced lunch of yogurt and milk and decided she was cold. She didn't want a jacket. She didn't even want a blanket. She wanted these beauties.
And did I mention that while I was trying to zip them up, I unintentionally toppled her over and she twacked her forehead on the ground? Whoops. Sweet thang still managed a smile for me (after she was done crying for her Daddy for awhile, of course).
Then when I put her down for a nap, I heard some rustling about in her room. I just let her be, hoping that she'd fall asleep. Later I walked down the hall and panicked when the door to her room was wide open but she was not in her bed! A quick glance around the corner and I found her here:




Not a bad napping spot, I suppose. I've napped in that chair quite often myself. Plus, the only evidence of misbehavior I found was a half-eaten tube of chapstick.










THIS one has always been my favorite photo of CATE.
She looks like a child model, I think.
Nope....never in a million years could she be STILL enuf to be a child model.....
maybe later.....when she's about 21.  :>)
We love ya, Cate girl.....                          and she loves CHOCOLATE...

  9. What an adorable little girl. I can relate to these special ones. I have great grandson that I love more than life. He has been the best thing that has happened to me since I lost my husband. He brings me much joy and happiness, Noting sweeter than the love of a child. I fact, am meeting him and family in the morning for breakfast.

  21. Cate is adorable and looks like she could be a match for my little Connor. That age they are so active every minute and then crash. I wanted to scoop her up seeing the sweet pic of her napping. I love her all her pink. If you need a break send her to me! She is absolutely model material………..

  24. Happy Pink Saturday BJ Sweetie...
    What a precious share today. I love seeing your sweet Cate. She is a Cutie Patootie. Love her hair. She is going to be a model one day.

    Love those jammies. That story written by her sweet Momma is priceless. I found myself smiling. (I can remember a time or two, I down swung my dear girl, while trying to jump her into her tights for twirling. A sweet memory for me.)

    Have a gorgeous weekend BJ sweetie. Thanks again for the pinky share. Many hugs and much love, Sherry

  31. Hello BJ, I guess that's the next step for us to one day have great-grands and I hope they bring as much joy as your little gal does to you.
    I had to smile when I saw Rett's comment - we say the same thing about kittens and puppies!
    Not surprised to see she likes chocolate - old family tradition huh?
