Swings

I taught Lil Bit how to swing today by kicking her feet.  She's actually tall enough to reach the swings on her on so she got on one and started off on her on..."swing and kick my butt; swing and kick my butt"...

Ladders and Firetrucks

Yesterday Lil Bit used scissors for the first time ever.  I could not bear to watch her because I was so nervous but after trying to hold them a few different ways, she figured it out and was expertly cutting away strips of paper!

Something else to note:  the other night I was telling her some made up stories at bedtime.  In this particular story I said something about people being in trees.  She stopped me to ask how people got into the trees.  I answered with what I thought was an appropriate answer: they climbed.  She thought for a moment and said, "no mommy, I know how they got in the tree; ladders and fire trucks".

Can't argue with that!
