My cousin

Katie woke up from her nap today and said, "Mommy, when's my birthday?" I told her when it was and that she had a few more months to go. "My cousin's coming to my birthday party." My cousin always refers to Robin, unless she specifies Pete or Mitch.
"Yes Katie, your cousin will come to your birthday party."
Katie continues "My Aunt Lesley will come to my birthday party. At my house. My Dima will come to my birthday party at my house."
I don't know what she was dreaming about, but so funny to think of Katie having another world of dreams that we don't see. But in general, we often wonder what goes through her mind.

Here are some pictures from Rosh Hashanah dinner at Debbie's house. Robin decided to play dress up with her Belle ballgown so Katie got to dress up in Robin's sleeping beauty dress. You can guess correctly that Robin is very into the princesses. We're hoping Katie skips that phase... At one point Robin decided she wanted her "alone time." Poor Katie was absolutely crushed! Peter took her outside and played on the jungle gym type thing. Here they are sharing a swing. Being an urban toddler, you must know that it was quite the novelty for Katie to just go outside to a swing.

Katie's pushing Peter on the swing. My mother seemed to think that it was okay that Katie was barefoot.
