Mischief in the making

At 10 months old that is exactly what Caitlin is.  Now that she has perfected the art of walking, her next mission is to master climbing… and she is determined.  A few days ago I heard Caitlin crying in my bedroom.  I ran to her aid only to find out that her outburst was prompted by her inability to climb up the overturned laundry basket.  I laughed.  The next day she finds the laundry basket again and this time she manages to climb on top of it… and fall off!  If I thought my boys were a handful… she’s going to prove me wrong.

Here are some pictures taken on the day she conquered the laundry basket.

Other things she can do and/or likes to do at 10 months: 

  *  Do the Zena Warrior Princess call (as witnessed in the first picture) when she gets excited.

  *  Throw, what looks like the makings of, a mini tantrum.

  *  Play with cars.

  *  Take off her diaper.  She is so pleased with herself when she gets it off.
      One day William got annoyed and duct taped her diaper on.

  *  Say ‘Ma.’  I’m not sure if it stands for ‘Mom’ or ‘Mark.’  I’d like to think she is saying ‘Mom.’

  *  Say ‘Da.’  I’m not sure if it stands for ‘Dad’ or ‘Aidan.’

  *  Clap her hands.

  *  Watch videos of herself.

  *  Wave hello/bye.

  *  Stomp her feet when she is excited.

All in all, she is mischief in the making.  And a pure joy to watch grow.
