11 Months - Week 2

Cate has been enjoying the playoffs with us!

Cate has started playing the next classroom at school. It will be the room she moves to next after she starts walking. She played in the other classroom for a long time. She danced (shaking her foot), read books, and played in the 'kitchen' with the other little ones.

Cate had her 8th tooth break through. She's been working on putting them to good use too. She been eating more solids, mostly off my plate. But she's eating! She has some rice, broccoli and cheese and she had some beans and rice at a Mexican restaurant we went to.

Cate has begun associating "Da" and Mike together. We ask her who he is when pointing at him and she hollers "Da". Now, she still says it at random other times but I think it counts as something. :)

When walking with her Dino, she'll bump into a wall or something and holler "Da" for Mike to come turn her around or get her un-stuck. She has also started turning to look for him and waving her hand at him to come turn her around.

Cate took her first attempt at a step all by herself yesterday afternoon. She immediately fell down. Then later, she took a smaller step all by herself and didn't fall! I couldn't coax her to try it again though.

She has been in a non-pant wearing mood lately. I picked her up from school on Friday and they told me Cate has refused to wear her pants most of the day. She also brought this same mood home over the weekend.
