Catherine is getting to the stage where she is starting to actually have conversations with us. And occasionally they are pretty darn funny.

Like this afternoon….

Catherine was standing in front of the tv with a stuffed animal in her arms opening the entertainment center doors saying something about watching bear. Now she doesn’t usually watching anything with bears in it so i asked “Who do you want to watch?” and she replied “I don’t want to watch Doctor Who.” I said “Ok you don’t want to watch Doctor Who…. Who DO you want to watch?” She repeated “I don’t want to watch Doctor Who”, in a slightly irritaned tone….

We went back and forth a few more times… just enough to make me begin to feel like I was in a who’s on first sketch…. when I asked “what do you want to watch?” To which she replied “Blue’s Clues.”

Lately i’ve been looking for ways to keep a diaper on the baby… she is getting to be quite the expert at removing them. I really like colth diapers (inspite of having to deal with cleaning and storing them) but MOST of the covers/wraps for them leave much to be desired. Partly because of materials… and partly because Catherine is so darn good at undoing velcro.

Well I have recently begun using wool soakers. Chuck was (and is) skeptical…

I WISH he had been here to see the diaper I took off Catherine this morning…. the cloth diaper was SOAKED… the soaker, however, was completely dry… there was a small bit of dampness inside the soaker (where the REALLY wet diaper had been)…. but the outside was COMPLETELY dry.

Just because it’s newer doesn’t mean it’s better. (AND she can’t take them off!!!)

Poor Catherine is teething again. She’s getting 2 teeth at once this time and her current sleeping habits are actually making me miss her newborn days. I think she got more sleep then… and I got to nap with her. Now I am dealing with her waking every 3 hours at night AND only taking 1 two hour nap a day.

Oh well, her teeth will be through soon and life will get back to normal.
