Katya's room

Here is a recent picture of Katya's room after I have rearranged it. She got the animals above her crib for Christmas. They are SO cute I could not resist. You can't tell from the pictures put they have glitter accenting parts of the animals. Katya loves them! Now that she is a big girl she sleeps with Grandma T's quilt which looks so great in her room.

Some of Katya's new words are 'dark,' 'meat,' and 'snack,' (_nack, she can't pronounce her s's)'remote' (mote) and 'grandma'. She learned 'grandma' yesterday and was so pleased with her self she said it all day long! She says it quite well and we were able to Skype Doug and Sharon so they could hear her. She is also starting to say her name better, with the a on the end. She is getting more attached to her binky and wants it a lot. We have to keep it out of sight and when we say it is night-night time she immediately asks for her bink. It will be interesting to see how she handles new baby having a binky...

She is down to one bottle a day, in the mornings. She was drinking so much milk in her AM and PM bottles that I was not able to offer her milk during the day. Now she gets cold milk in her sippy cup with lunch and dinner which she likes and then her warm AM bottle. She asked for the PM bottle the first few nights and again last night for Craig but has adjusted pretty well over all. The bottle is totally a comfort thing rather than her being thirsty. We are going to let her have the one bottle until after the baby is born. Love to all, Brenda
