Since we turned Kate's car seat to face forward, she has been enjoying her new ability to see just what I am doing up there in the front seat. This, needless to say, has made life more complicated for me, because she can see and demand all the things she wants, like my i-Pod, my Burt's Bees lip balm (she is obsessed with holding it and pretending that she is putting it on her lips) and, as you can see from this photo, my cell phone. Some times I just go ahead and give her the cell phone. And then some times, as happened right after I took this photo, I get a phone call from my mother saying "Did you call me a minute ago? Because I answered my phone and heard the radio, and Kate saying dadadadada, and then the line went dead."
So if you're in my cell phone contact list and we've baby-dialed you in the last couple of weeks, forgive us. And call back. We probably want to talk to you anyway. Or at least Kate does.

That's really funny. Joey calls people on my cell phone too. Thankfully, since Andy's name starts with an A, it's usually him. A couple of times I've been driving and heard Andy's voice coming from the cell phone in the back seat.

Megan, Jeannette: It's so funny to me how Kate has gone through this big phase of noticing what we do and wanting to do it too. Does that last? I understand that she learns how to do everything from us, but it's like she zeroes in on little behaviors, like applying chapstick and talking on the cell phone, and loves to do them. It's super cute. I just thought I'd ask if it continues since y'all have older kids. Thanks fo reading!
