More Cate comments & a few pictures

Cate wearing her boots from Nana and Papa Davis.

The picture above and below are from the Memorial Day parade. Cate and I walked down to watch, and Rick was supposed to be at the firehouse covering for the guys who were in the parade. To our surprise when the Bath fire truck went by, Rick was driving! I was too busy making sure Cate saw that it was Rick to take a picture. Oops!!

And now, more funny things Cate says...

After a walk over to the Hyde School duck ponds with Gramma and Papou:
Cate: Cate feed fish bread. Cate see two duckies. (in a whisper, with index finger up to lips) Gramma say, "Shhhh."

While at Gramma and Papou's house, Gramma was cutting up potatoes:
Papou: Look, Cate, the potato has eyes.
Cate: Silly Papou!

Before bed:
Mommy: Cate, it's about time for bed.
Cate: Yes. Busy day. Good day. Busy day.

While getting dressed before school:
Cate: My tummy hurt. (audible tooting) My tummy feel better!

Polite Cate:
Cate in bed: Mommy, say, "Close eyes Cate."
Mommy: Close your eyes Cate.
Cate: Mommy, say, "Thank you, Cate, closing eyes."

Not polite Cate:
Cate to friend Olivia: Olivia, get out Cate's swing, right now!
Olivia: No, mine!

Early this morning during the first rumble of thunder:
Cate sits straight up.
Mommy: It's ok, Cate. It's just thunder.
Cate: (thinking briefly) Probably dump truck. Cate go look out window dump truck.

We opened the door to go outside just as the ice cream truck drove past. Cate looks curious:
Mommy: That's an ice cream truck.
Cate: (excited) Ice cream, Cate, favorite!!

My favorite after changing her diaper...
"Gramma, thank you for wiping Cate's bum!."
Your welcome, Cate:)
