Celebration!

Cate made her kip in gymnastics tonight and was super excited!  One advantage of (temporarily!) living 5 minutes walk from Dairy Queen is that it's easy to celebrate these milestones with ice cream.

Chatterbox

Cece has become an official chatterbox.  And she's pretty funny.  Sometimes it's even what she says but the intonation that cracks us up.


She'll answer a request with , "Of course!" Or greet us with, "Good morning!"


Yesterday she had her first dance class.  I would not consider it a huge success as the teacher held her for the entire 30 minute session (in pajamas and crazy hair) while she cried.  This morning our babysitter, Megan, asked her about it.


Megan:  Cece, how was dance?

Cece:  Dance with friends.  Me cry.


Megan:  You cried?  Why?


Cece:  Me scared.


Megan:  What were you scared of?

Cece (very seriously):  Ghosts.


Another example...we were sitting outside yesterday, enjoying the beautiful weather while we waited for the kids to get home from school.


Me: Cece, what do you want to be when you grow up?

Cece:  Baby.


Me:  A baby?  But you're already a kid! 


Cece:  Ok, fish.  Me be fish.  Blue one.
