Toddlerville

In the past month Kinzie has blossomed from a baby to a full-fledged toddler!  Part of me is sad, there were some moments that I just relished her being a baby, like when I could sit her on the floor with her toys and 30 minutes later she would still be in the exact same spot.   There were other moments too...like the last bottle of the day, the curling up in my arms and not fighting to get down, just to name a few. 

But now that she is walking and occasionally saying words/phrases that are understandable, it's an entirely new world.  We've had to clean up our language, A TON!   Her new favorite phrase is: Oh Shit...not my proudest mommy moment, but I admit she heard that from me.   She's walking everywhere.  She'll be running before summer!  

The other day in the bathroom as I was getting ready to shower, I had an early morning thought: 

I have a toddler, because 

Exhibit A:

My toilet paper looks like this more often than not, because its been unwound and wound back up over and over again.

And Exhibit B:

 A toy in the shower, not her tub, not a bath toy, but a if you step on it, its gonna hurt kinda toy!

So now that our house has moved on from babyhood to toddlerville, it truly has become a different kind of adventure!    I'll admit I'm a bit nervous.  I had babyhood down pretty good,  We had a good routine, I knew her favorite things, food and could tell in a second almost what it is she wanted.  

Toddlerville is a bit different one thing may be eaten on Tuesday, refused on Wednesday.   May scream at me in frustration one second and then give a giant kiss the next.   So yeah I'm nervous

Yet when you look at this, you can't help but be excited about toddlerville!
