Mischevious little Kayda

Kayda is too smart for our (the parents) good. She is incredibly resourceful. She decided that she was going to use the bouncer seat (behind the chair) to climb onto the chair where she could reach a bag of "boogie wipes". She then preceeded to pull them all out...every last one of them. I didn't catch her until she was already at the point in the picture. She does things like this all the time. She'll use her blocks container as a stool to get something she wants and now that she's getting taller it's getting easier and easier to get to things. She can now EASILY reach things left on the edge of the counter or table. She had one of Grandma G's empty cans just yesterday.

She is developing into quite the character. She works the crowd incredibly well, she waves at people when they drive or walk past us, she smiles at everyone and unfortunately for us, she knows EXACTLY what she wants. She has developed an "I want that so you need to give it to me" routine at the ripe old age of 16 MONTHS... It is WAY to early for that! I managed to catch a picture of it, in this particular scenario she desperately wanted the camera I was using to take her and Dillon's pictures.

On a lighter note, here's Dillon, sweet undemanding laid back little Dillon. We were playing this morning and I FINALLY managed to get another good picture of him smiling. It took me about 30 pictures this time to get one you could actually see. Kayda was a lot like this at this age too so we could have our hands REALLY full a year from now. Especially since he loves his big sister so much, he will just sit and watch her play, he finds it fascinating.
