She likes to move it, move it!

Kyley sure is a busy, social little girl.  I know that all kids at this age are more active, but she really is a nonstop chatterbox and playing all the time.  Just recently she has decided that she would much rather stand than sit the majority of the time.  Due to the fact that she is not 100% able to stand unassisted this requires extra attention from mommy and daddy...which I think she knows and is part of the reason that she does it.  Kyley would much rather have someone paying attention and watching what she does as she may be a bit of a little show off! 

 

I am sure this little table that was a hand-me-down has been in several pictures over the past six months.  However, she has rediscovered it's coolness!  When we got home from Minneapolis it was sitting in the living room exactly where it had been for months, and she started squealing when she saw it.  So, I stood her up next to it, and the last few weeks are history.  All she wants to do is stand up next to it and play.  She loves to throw the spoon off of it so that I say "uh-oh" then she yells in her own little way for me to pick it up.  It is such great practice for her too.  She does not even know that she is strengthening those little legs, working on balance and many other skills.  

One of Kyley's other favorite things is to go out to eat.  She loves to sit in her highchair, eat her snacks and entertain.  It is so funny to watch her engage her "audience".  Whether it is the friend or family member we are having dinner with, the waiter or waitress or the people in the booth  next to us, she sure can make a simple dinner out enjoyable!

She can also make sitting on the floor look like a whole lot of fun!  Kyley will play with about any toy or object you put in front of her.  She is so in tune with the "new" of everything, and she takes her time checking things out. 

You all already knew that she loves water and loves to swim.  She got to enjoy the pool last weekend over at the Millers.  She was not to sure about the floaty when we were on vacation, but it must have been the fact that this one was decorated in the best NFL team logo...as she would have stayed in it for hours!

When you are as active as she is...nap time is still a much needed time of the day.  And, she will be the first to tell you when it is time to do just that.  Kyley is so stinking cute to watch sleep, but she is even more adorable when she wakes up this happy!
