My Climbing, Walking, Shoe and Necklace Loving GIRL...

Kate is now a pro walker... and i'm adding pro climber and accessory stylist to her resume. She climbs on anything and everything! The past few weeks have been full of fun surprises for me thanks Kate. Here's how our days are going...

We wake up and hang out in our Pj's for a while... Kate goes up and down the stairs a few times then finally decides where she wants to be. Usually downstairs first... she climbs up on her high chair and waits for me to give her breakfast... then when she's done, she starts climbing out, i catch her in time before she take a pretty nasty fall. Then she begins to explore... And she has discovered moms and dads shoes... and has fallen in LOVE with shoes. She wants to put them on, walk with them and carry them where ever she goes. It's just so adorable i had to snap these pictures... by the way, she loves the camera too...

Then onto her little play slide that she got for her birthday. She'll climb up the slide, stand at the top, put her hands up and say "ta da" then sit, scoot over to the slide and slide down. She'll do this over and over and over again and she insist that you watch her, if i turn my back for a second, she screams at me for attention.

After that up the stairs to see what other explorations she can make. She found her sunglasses, her rocking chair and a pearl necklace of mine at the top of the stairs this morning and right away swung those pearls around her neck, threw her sunglasses on and sat on her favorite chair... There she was smiling and swinging her feet and just waiting for me to snap a picture. haha. What a personality she has!

(this picture reminds me of a celebrity walking by the paparazzi - "no pictures please")

After that, i was ready to take a shower, so i bring her to my room close the door so she can't escape and hop in the shower for a couple minutes. When i got out today she was sitting in my closet on the shoe rack trying to put on my shoes... so cute!

Then when i was getting ready, she got into my jewelry and wanted to put everything on... she did. I sure do have my hands full with this ONE YEAR OLD...

and i sure do LOVE every second of it!!!!
