The family is growing and changing so much, so I thought I would post what each of my little munchkins are up to.
Kaela is 3 1/2, loves to giggle and be silly. She is getting very talkative and tells everyone everything that comes into her mind.
She has entered the phase of, “Why?” I find myself explaining everything before she can ask. Instead of saying, “We are going to Daddy’s work”, I say “We are going to Daddy’s work to bring him lunch since he forgot it this morning.” Without fail, she will still ask “Why?” I think she does it more because she gets a response rather than actual curiosity. She also asks metaphysical questions, “Why do birds have wings? Why do germs make me sick?” and I am sometimes hard pressed to come up with a suitable answer (though yesterday that the reason birds fly is so that they can get food up to the baby birds in the trees- of course!). But it she is growing, learning and changing.
Kaela’s favorite game is “I’m an acrobat” – which consists of her grabbing the bars on the underside of the top bunk bed and swinging around. To harness this, we gave her a gymnastics class for Christmas. It meets twice a week for three hours at a time, and while it does some gymnastics along with games, snacks, free play etc, it is also nice in that it gives Kaela an opportunity to interact with people other than Mom. She is enjoying it and comes home tired.
Her imagination is growing. The dress-up she got for Christmas gets used a lot. She loves to make houses under the table, or bed and take all her toys in there.
