Her Latest

Kayla's newest thing: carrying stuff around the house. As a result, I have to search the house for my sandals (shoes, my does she love shoes).... and I have to walk all over the 1st story to gather her toys. Her fridge magnets? Some by the back door, some in the living room. It's actually really cute to watch her carry things( something in each hand, and sometimes something in her mouth too!). But aiya! And I thought my house could get messy before!

She also is starting to show some interesting eating habits. She is EXTREMELY wary of letting us feed her. Good thing she mostly self-feeds! But when we do try to spoon feed her something, she immediately puts her fingers in her mouth and examines what we put in there. No fooling her anymore! She also is rejecting things she previously loved (avacado and mango). Like, refuses to eat it, does a "windshield wiper" motion to get it off her tray... and get it off quickly. Like it might contaminate her other food or something!

Walking, not crawling, is her preferred method of transportation now. She'll cruise if there is furniture there, but will let go and walk without skipping a beat.

She figured out that she can crawl behind the loveseat and into the furniture. I tried to run and grab a camera, because she was so stinkin' proud of herself for getting back there! But she climbed out before I could get to the camera. And I suppose I shouldn't be encouragine that behavior.... She also steped up on the trim around our entertainment center to peek at the cable box with BUTTONS!

When she is upset, she arches her back and screams. Makes it very difficult sometimes to put her in the carseat or change a diaper.
