Playing Legos...her favorite thing to do!

It seems like this past month has been full of changes and that Kyla has grown up a bit. She is playing with a lot of different toys than she was before, is talking a lot, staying up later and waking up earlier and has become more opinionated then she was before.

This last month Kyla's favorite toys have been small legos rather than the mega blocks she liked before, Mrs. Potato head and sticker books. If Kyla had no other toys than these three things I think she would still be perfectly happy!

Some of the new things that Kyla is doing include walking up and down stairs holding your hand or the railing rather than crawling up and sliding down. She has become more creative in her dance moves, shaking her hips and spinning. She now will say "bum" when she needs to go potty. She will only allow Daddy to brush her teeth. When Daddy brushes her teeth it is a game, when I brush her teeth I have to wrestle her while she is crying and trying her best to squirm away. Kyla loves bath time and plays each night in the bathtub for quite a while.

Kyla is also obsessed with moose. We have not seen a moose in the yard for a few weeks, but everyday she looks at the window and says "moose gone" followed by "house". I told her after the moose left several weeks ago that the moose was gone and went to someone elses house. Whenever we are in the car and see a moose she gets very excited and talks about moose the entire car ride.

Kyla loves to play and laugh. She loves to be tickled, whenever she is tickled she laughs so hard and keeps asking for more, it is very cute! She also likes to make you laugh by making funny faces and being silly. Kyla is talking a lot more each day. She loves to talk!!! It is so fun to see Kyla learn so many new words, she can repeat almost anything you say and is able to actually communicate with you what she wants. Today we were looking at an animal book and she said "elephant" and then put her arm to her face and swung it like an elephant trunk while making the sound of it spraying water, it was very cute! I love how smart and funny she can be.
