Smart little girl...


When Willow cannot reach something, she will go and get 1 of 2 things: either my white garbage can, or the pink stool- she then uses it to stand on and then reach what ever she was too short for in the first place.
I've been noticing that Willow is really obedient too- honestly! I'll ask her to grab her boots- and she will. I'll ask her to get her toothbrush- she will. Her Elmo book- she does that too. I'll ask her if she needs to go potty and she will run down the hall, into the bathroom and put her potty seat on the toilet- kinda great for a 16 month old, I think!
So my ultimate favorite was a few days ago: I was mopping the kitchen floor really quickly and I bent over to pick up a spoon that had fallen. Willow was right there so I handed it to her and said,"Go put it in the sink." She ran off in the other direction, so I just shook my head & kept mopping. She came back a few seconds later, holding the pink stool, put it in front of the kitchen sink, climbed up and dropped the spoon in the sink! My heart literally melted right there. I scooped her up and praised her a 100 times, "Good girl!!!." It was so cute! What did I tell you...

So the picture of her with the stool by the back door is because the big kids were outside playing and she REALLY wanted to be out there with them- so she was standing on it trying to open the door. By the time i grabbed my camera, she had already given up hope)
The other picture is a random really morning shot!
