It is amazing to see Cheyenne grow more and more each day. She is just so adventurous and loves to get into things. Right now, one of her favorite things to do is to open dresser drawers and hand over head, toss each article of clothing out on the floor behind her, will put her sippy cup inside and close the drawer. She also likes to open large storage bins. She is only ONE and she has already figured out how the little side latches open and close. She knows when she wants attention, she will walk over to the bin (that we currently have acting as a make-shift baby gate, will open the latches, remove the lid and take out a little baggy of wall hangers that is lying inside the bin. She like the way the little baggy sounds when she shakes it, so it's not long before I hear that, no matter where I am in the house that I have to come running!
Yes, a make shift baby gate... the hallways and area to my kitchen is JUST wider than the average baby gate so yes, we have large plastic filled storage bins to block her from going into the boys room where she is certain to get into trouble. The boys even enjoy the little blockades as they get a running start from the front door, getting three good strides in before they hurdle over, sometimes making it, sometimes not. A few feet from the blockade is the back of the couch which certainly stops them abruptly too if they overshoot their landing.
Anyway... Cheyenne has also figured out how to use my MyTouch smart phone. I always had to time-out the screen before giving her my phone because she would certainly find a way to jack up my home page or move shortcuts around or select a app that I don't feel like subscribing too (but can't delete - god that's annoying). But now little miss "I-just-turned-one" knows how to turn the screen on, and puts it up to her head and says "Hiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii" and it's so stinkin cute. If she wasn't walking off with my phone I would most certainly have snapped a picture of it... I'll have to try to get one with my regular camera soon.
