Children's Museum

Just a cute picture of Cate, Eric and Buddy


Today I took Cate to the Children's Museum. We haven't been there in quite a while so it was fun to see her play with things that she hadn't played with before. As she gets older she is able to do more and more at the museum. She was so excited to go there and she had so much fun while she was there.

Hay Ride

Today I met up with some friends and their kids for a hay ride at a corn farm. It was a bit chilly and windy but Cate had a great time. She was so excited because a tractor pulled us around. She also got to pick out a little pumpkin to take home. It was great to get together with a group of Moms.

Here is a picture of Cate all bundled up and ready for the hay ride. (Of course she is doing her new pose for the camera)

Here is a group photo of all the kids waiting to go on the hay ride.

Yipeee!!

I don't know what got Cate to start shouting Yipeee, but lately she has loved saying it. She will say "Mommy Yipee", "Daddy Yipee", and then "Cate Yipee". It is soooo cute. We got a little bit of it on video last night.

Here is a picture of Cate painting today. She is getting much better at holding the paintbrush.

Pumpkin Carving

Yesterday we decided to carve our pumpkin. Cate helped scoop out the inside of the pumpkin and that is about all she was interested in. Of course Eric and I did the carving and Cate had a hard time waiting for us to finish. But she loved looking at it once we were done with it.

Cookies and fire

Today was cold and rainy, so Cate and I decided to make cookies. I let her do most of the work, which was very messy but she had a great time. I posted a couple pictures of her dipping the cookie dough into sugar before we baked them. And of course she loved licking her fingers at the end. She was a great little helper and we had a wonderful time together.



When Eric got home from work he decided to make a fire because the house is pretty chilly. Of course Cate wanted to help Daddy. Eric has his own work gloves and he also bought Cate some work gloves. She loves to put them on and help hand Eric the wood for the fires. It is so adorable to watch her help her Daddy.

Go Broncos and new foods

Yesterday, as many of you know, the Broncos beat the Patriots. Eric and I wore our Broncos gear around town. It was a great game and Cate has now learned how to say "Go Broncos". Cate loves to watch football with her Dad.


Also this weekend Cate tried some new foods. Of course they are foods that everyone loves but it was a big deal to us that she ate them. We ordered pizza for the CU Buffs game on Saturday and Cate at it! Then on Sunday night we had spaghetti and meatballs for dinner and she ate them too! It is great that she is finally eating more and more types of foods.
