That's entertainment!

The kids have always been a great source of entertainment, but more so lately, as their personalities continue to develop on a grand scale. Those who have been around can see it in a couple of things. With Isaiah, he's become less of the "fuss-bucket" he used to be and has become more inquisitive of everything around him. You can see it in his eyes when he spots something new and interesting, and he'll usually say, "ooooh, what's that?" He's also a lot quicker on his feet now, and he's gaining a better understanding of what we tell him. His newest thing is that he wants to walk to his room on his own when he has a dirty diaper. If we tell him we have to change it, he'll immediately make a beeline for his room! Who taught him that???

With Makenna, it's almost as if she's on overdrive, especially with her speech! She's at that stage now where "me do it" and "I did it" are pretty common. Our little Miss Independent loves to do things on her own, but will always ask for help if she runs into a snag. It's funny to hear her ask "daddy help you" when she needs assistance because she's basically repeating what I say to her when I notice she's stuck. Out of the blue, she'll sing entire songs (nursery rhymes) while Enz & I look at each other in amazement! Just last night, she called both Enz & I by name! HA, too funny!

They're both at great stages in their young lives and it's so fun to watch how they feed off one another's energy. Sure there are still times when Kenna overdoes it and gets Isaiah all riled up, but it seems that he's learning to get over it quicker. That is, unless she continues to push his buttons...
