KATE

Our baby is 2.1 years old and man, is she sassy! This girl knows what she wants and when she wants it. She is quick to tell Nick "KY-IT! (QUIET!)" when he is playing piano. If he doesn't stop immediately, she will crawl up next to him on the bench, put her hand on her back and softly say, "Listen. No no." She says "Fake you mommy daddy" for every little thing, whether we got out of her way or gave her a favorite snack. She knows where all her kids go to school so when we are out running errands and pass one of their schools, she calls out their name and wants to "go get him." She sings "Five Little Monkeys Jumping on the Bed" about a hundred times a day. If she is not interested in whatever we have to offer her, we get a quick "I know want it...." and she moves on. She loves to hide things and then ask us where they went. Usually it is hidden in her shirt, but we pretend not to know that.:) When we ask HER where it went, she smiles her sassy smile, puts her hands up and says, "I no no!" She doesn't miss a beat and if she does, she immediately says, "What happen mom?" so I can catch her up.  She is the first kid to get their scriptures out when it is time to read and reminds us to "Pray!" every time we sit down at the table. When the rest of the family is talking, she likes to be included too so she will pat someone on th arm and then just start talking all kinds of Chinese. She uses her hands and rolls her eyes and it soon becomes the most interesting conversation at the table. Every day is exciting with Kitty around. Love this little miss. XOXOXOX
