I'm A Big Kid Now

Well, we are quickly approaching Kendall's first birthday and she's hit all kinds of milestones...She's got a mouth full of teeth - 8 to be exact with #s 9 & 10 on their way.  She's been walking since the second week of June by herself and now she's practically running.  She goes under the water in the pool without me having to blow in her face - she is conditioned to know what's going to happen when I count to three.  She uses sign language to tell you when she's finished eating and working on learning new signs every day.  She loves to eat - pretty much everything and anything.  No peanut allergies in our house!  She's even taste tested the dog's food and went back for seconds.  We affectionately call her "Swiper" (from Dora the Explorer) because she is always looking for things that do not belong to her and taking off with them.  This is how she got so good at running!
Well, her latest and greatest is to climb up our indoor 3 step slide and stand on the top by herself...she use to sit down right away when she got to the top, but in true youngest child fashion, she's demonstrating her lack of fear by standing on top of the slide!
Watch and enjoy!
