The good and the bad

With the weather being so nice the last few days we have come home and gone straight outside to play. It is amazing how much happier every one in our family is having quality family time on the porch. This includes the dogs. It has been so much fun having a child that is old enough to enjoy it with us. This is how Jason and I always pictured ourselves once we had a child.

Now to my title...Most of this post is good. I only have one BAD yet funny at the same time.

Lately, Kaylie has started making 2 word phrases with some of the words she is really good at saying. So far she has said...You tell me....do you think she is a daddy's girl?

*mommy/daddy (combined)
* daddy swing
* daddy swing me
* night daddy

The other thing she is getting good at is role playing. We were sitting outside and I watched her as she turned her babies on there bellies, patted there backs and told them night night. Where does she get that from? I laughed!

Recently, we taught her how to help us feed the dogs. Her role is to pick up the bowls, bring them to us, wait until we put the food in and then take it back to Bailey's spot for the dog to inhale. Now Kaylie takes it upon herself (even when they have just finished eating) to pick the bowls up, open the closet, take out the scoop and try to feed the dogs on her own. You have to watch her. She is sneaky. No wonder Bailey has grown to like her!

THE BAD
Kaylie walked over to a pile of poop in the yard and picked it up. I saw her bend over and pick something up and drop it. I freaked, grabbed her and ran her to the bathroom to wash up. I did not put her back down until she had washed her hands several times. Oops!
