Kayla's First Birthday 5/9/2007

The girls and I had a great evening for Kayla's first Birthday. Alexis always loves to lay with her sister whether it is when she is drinking from her bottle (almost done with), or from her sippy cup....
Kayla has started walking alot... today she walked from our entertainment center to the kitchen about 10 times.... she was determined to make it the entire way... Walking from the couch to her toys.... she is walking more everyday!...
The girls walking together... Alexis loves to help her little sister out....

Singing Happy Birthday to Kayla (Daddy was at work...)
Kayla and Alexis both clapped when we were done....
Then Alexis wanted to help the "Birthday Girl" eat her cake... Alexis has a hard enough time eating by herself, that is when it comes to her veggies.... this tells me she knows what she is doing!
Kayla using the "sign language" for "more" - she is telling Alexis she wants more with her hands... she knows "more", "all done", and "milk" in sign language.... From all of the books I have read about sign language and babies, most of them say they can start learning sign language at around 6 months, but mine didn't pick it up until they were around a year, and I still think they are pretty smart! Kayla can tell me when she wants juice, milk, nap, and food with sign language, I'm still working with her on the sign for "change my diaper"!
