My mom gave Kate a baby doll for Christmas, and lately, she's showing more and more interest in holding it, wrapping it in a blanket, and feeding the baby its little plastic bottle. But the interest is usually short-lived as you will see from this series of photos that I took in a span of about 1.5 minutes.
Feeding the baby, happy for about 30 seconds:

Now noticing the bottle -- wonder what's in there?

Better taste it to make sure.

And now, having determined that there is no actual milk in that bottle, we're done with the feeding, so it's time to throw the baby doll on the ground. It's probably a good thing that the baby doll is made of plastic and that Kate doesn't have access to any real babies on whom she could inflict her mothering skills. Please don't report her to child protective services.

I love the bow! And I'm glad to see Kate's monkey is still in business. The ever present monkey. : )

RT, do you recognize the shoes? They are the ones you gave Kate, and I am so glad they finally fit, because they are adorable. She loves to wear them. Thanks for the gift, friend. Miss you.

I'm so glad the shoes fit! Kate must be growing nicely because those shoes looked gigantic in September.
Hug Kate for me. Love you!

Haley, Kate's attention span is getting longer! At Christmas the baby doll only got 5 1/2 seconds of her tender loving care at a time. I am very impressed with such quick progress. She is learning from you, so she will be a great Mommy one day! I love you, Sweet Mommy!!!
