Potty Training

Kalli is in the process of potty training. She does it when she wants to. She's been our most difficult child when it comes to this.

Kalli

Kalli (2 yrs old) The other night she went around the room to each person. Kalli put her hand on each shoulder bowed her head, said a few words and went on to the next person. We loved it as she prayed for everyone.

Kalli

Kalli just loves Dora. She will bring her video and want it in the VCR. We're trying to get her to stop biting.

Shaking Hands

Kalli loves to shake peoples hands. When we go to church she puts out her hand even before she hits the front door.

Growing up

Kalli is getting more onry. She is going for the things she knows she can't have. She'll take the remote and pretent she's giving it back but standing just out of reach. When you try to get up she'll take off running - laughing.

Around

Kalli is getting into everything. She'll drop something and say "oh oh" while smiling. She goes to the things she knows she can't have. Right now it's cute but I'm sure that will wear off soon.

Stephanie

Stephanie was married a few weeks ago and moved to Chicago.

15 months old

Kalli is just looking for things to get into. I was reading and put down my book to get the baby whips she had just spread out on the floor. While I was picking up the baby whips she went over to my book and pulled out the book marker. (I'm just glad she didn't take my pop and dump out the soda.)

Stairs

Kalli is moving all over the place. When she's ready for bed she loves to climb the stairs to the second level. Every night she has to stop at the 3rd step and try to get something. She does go to bed OK. (As long as she's feeling alright.)

Walking

Kalli is walking all over the place. She's getting more independent, wanting to be by herself more. It's funny - when I go sit at the computer desk she'll be right there. She's getting her little books and pretends she's reading.

Stairs

Kalli is traveling up the stairs as fast as she can. She met Kim on the 2nd level last night. It's going to be hard to keep off the stairs.

Park

We went to the park yesterday for Noah's Kindergarten picnic. He had fun running all over the place. When Kalli seen Stephanie she clapped her hands happy to see her. Stephanie held Kalli a lot.

Remote

I'll sit at the computer desk and Kalli will bring the remote to me and place in on the floor by my chair. That's her favorite thing to play with. We gave her her own remote but that's not as important as the real one. I'm glad I have two end tables by my recliner. She'll go back and forth trying to get something I don't want her to have.

Standing Up

Kalli is going all over the place. Her favorite thing is to stand by the coffee table and push everything off it. Then she'll go to the other one and do the same. It's a game to her. We're trying to teach her the word no but it's hard. When we tell her no she'll smile and shake her head no. It's hard not to laugh. She'll be walking really soon.

This is Kalli on the day of her adoption. It was so cute yesterday. Stephanie went into the nursery to bring her children in. Kalli cried for Stephanie.

Standing Up

Kim was telling me that Kalli was standing at the front door when Stephanie and her sister came over. They were tapping the glass getting her attention. It was cute. Kalli does like to look out the door window and the living room windows.
