Crawling Around

Yahoo...it's BIRTHDAY month for Kalista! (and Jen too)

We have been planning and cleaning the house like tazmanian devils. We can't wait to see Kalista demolish her cake with her hands and maybe if we are lucky...her face. (Other parents probably discourage messy faces...but we are on the other extreme...messy face...bring it on! It means we did something right.)

Kalista is crawling up a storm and cruising around the house. She has also been testing out those balance skills too. Here's a mini sequence of her abilities:

Check that balance out...no hands!

Now that she is more mobile, she is doing a lot more exploring. She discovered a view from her bedroom window and decided to crawl over there to check it out.



She banged loudly on the window and probably scared all our neighbors. How often do you see a toddler banging on windows like the house was on fire? We nipped that in the bud quickly. She definitely was not too happy about that!
