Leashhhhh

This is one of Kendall's new words! Every day we go on a walk: Kendall rides in the stroller and Molly walks on her leash next to us. Lately every time I ask Kendall if she wants to go on a walk, she will walk into the kitchen and bang on the pantry door where we keep Molly's leash, saying "Leashhhh, shhhh, shhhhh!" I will open the door, she grabs the leash, and then takes it to wherever Molly is. The other day she even bent down and laid the leash on her neck! Such a smart girl!

Then she will walk to the garage door and wait for me to open it.

Ready to go Mom!

She is doing a lot of other funny "big girl" things lately. When we say, "It's time to take a bath" she will walk to the bathroom door, we open it, she goes inside, pushes the shower curtain aside, and hikes one leg over the bathtub! Clothes on still! So funny. She will also walk to her bedroom when we say it's time for a diaper change, and to the kitchen when we say let's get milk, juice, snack, go eat, whatever. It is so neat to see how she understands what we say and can follow our directions!

Another thing she has been doing lately is getting Molly's toys and putting them out her doggie door. She says Molly's name the whole time she does it. She has only gotten her hand stuck twice so far!

Finally, one of the best things she is doing is waiting for Dad to come in the door when he gets home from work or comes home for lunch. I will hear his car pull in the driveway and tell her he is home and she immediately throws down whatever she is playing with, jumps up, and runs to the front door. If he doesn't come fast enough, she will bang on the door until he opens it. Molly also runs to the door when she hears his car, so he has all three of his girls waiting on him when he walks in the door!! How fun!
