Happy Birthday Kate!


Is this the most beautiful little girl you have ever seen? Kate is my 4th granddaughter and is absolutely full of enthusiasm. Kate is now 5 years old and started kindergarten last Monday. It is hard to believe these grandchildren of mine are growing up so fast!

Kate is the 2nd child in her family and has shown a bit of a stubborn streak. When Kate was a little younger she would hold out for quite sometime trying to get her way. That was a battle for Lindsey. I think with a little age, Kate has grown out of that a little bit. Just a year ago Kate still needed her blanket at bedtime. The blanket had a little bow on the corner that she would tickle her face with to go to sleep. The blanket was a bit ragged and I think it has since disappeared.

Kate loves to choose her clothes that she is going to wear. You might call her fussy. She is very feminine and loves to wear skirts or comfy dresses. She will definitely cost her parents some money when she is older. She is always open to wearing the funky stuff and she can pull it off. Lindsey dresses her so cute!


Kate is always Lindsey's prime model for picture taking. She is always willing to pose. Yesterday when I took her to get ice cream she was more than willing to pose and had several suggestions for possible camera shots. She wanted to take my picture as well....so we traded off. Lindsey is rubbing off on her!

Kate loved the sprinkles!

Kate is very social and does not have a problem making friends. She is very friendly and talkative. She loves to play outside, swim and ride her bike. At night she cannot go to bed without Lindsey singing her a song and tickling her back. She loves to cuddle. She loves her mom. Oh Kate, she is so sweet. Happy Birthday!
