Kaylin at the Sea Life Aquarium
Tyler on the edge of a Cliff in Happy Jack, AZ
During the Past few days, I have noticed that the Kids are getting too old, too quickly. I have a few examples of this with the babies.
First, while in the woods (next to Chance Tyler's cabin), Kaylin, Zack, and Tyler were playing on a small kids swing. When it was Zack's turn, Kaylin decided to run around with Bo, Chance's dog. After a few minutes, I noticed that Kaylin was about 1/3 mile through the woods. Although I could see her, I thought I should go get her and bring her closer to me. When I got to her, to my surprise, she was not in the least bit scared or worried that she was so far away from her parents or guardian. Those of you who know her, know that she is premature for her age and still getting over certain fears. Definitely a new thing for her.
Along this same thinking, this week, while Mom decided to make a quick trash run outside, Kaylin locked Mommy out of the house. Since Dad was at work, which is about 30 mins away, it took a considerable amount of time to open the door for Mommy. During that time, Kaylin played peacefully in the house until Dad got home to open the door. She again had no worries for that extended time by herself. Luckily, Zack slept through the whole thing as well.
Zack, on the other hand, just keeps getting stronger and more athletic. First, he made a great leap out of his crib for the first time in the middle of the night. Don't worry, any time he falls or you think he should be hurt, he gets right back up with hardly any cries. Second, he has now figured out how to open the baby gate and get upstairs, without any help. The next day, he just broke through the baby gate, which is now without a stopper and of no use. FYI, the baby gate was put on the bottom of the stairs with extreme force, including 4-5 hours of installation.
Zack is going to be He-Man!!!!
