Here comes trouble ~
Don't let that angelic face fool you! My almost 16 month old is becoming a cackling little dare-devil. She accomplished a new stunt today. She climbed up our stairs. Yes, all the way to the top, and I didn't know what she was up to until she reached the top.
She's been contemplating this task for a few weeks but aside from my mom encouraging her, she hadn't pulled the trigger. Either she hadn't been brave enough or I hadn't given her the opportunity.
If the latter was the reason then I let down my guard this evening.
Every time I turned my back she made a beeline for the bottom of the steps.
From that vantage point you can see why I have a fear of her taking a tumble.
She's pretty proud of herself. Hopefully we can quickly get this out of her system.
In another area we made real progress tonight! Walker ate a plate full of {toddler-friendly} vegetables - roasted sweet potato fries and
spinach cakes. Though the face doesn't show it, he actually enjoyed the spinach cakes, and he asked for more sweet potatoes ~ not once but twice. Now this my friends is huge! I'll take it even if it is just for tonight.
And yes, I know he isn't a toddler, but I'll do anything to get him to eat something green.
I realize that this is my toddler. She is making definite progress in her on right. She hasn't had a bottle in days and once I even put the milk in a real sippy cup with a valve. I'm about ready to throw them in the trash!
