Kegan's New Tricks

Today I got off of work early.....whooo-hooo! I always beg and plead to leave early. I miss Kegan so much during the day. Imagine if I didn't like my job? Madison got off of work a little earlier too, so we just hung out and played with Kegan. Her and her Dad practiced rythm by clapping to the songs from her toy.

Kegan and I then practiced saying "Thank You". I am teaching her to sign it, but I think she'll get the verbal part down first. She is really trying. And the nerve, no "Mama" yet. Great with "Dada" of course. Even if she won't say my name at least she will be polite about it by saying "Thank You"!

This is Kegan being silly

My little bright eyes!

Kegan is sick again. The ear tubes haven't been a miracle yet. She has had a snotty nose since our hurricaine guests left and her ears have drained constantly. She has been on antobiotic ear drops for 2 weeks with no relief. Good news though, she now likes to take Dimetapp. It was really rough with a constantly snotty kid who refused Dimetapp. What kid doesn't like grape???So a perk of working with doctors is that I ran into her ENT today and he prescribed her an oral antibiotic so we can see if we can get rid of the snotts. Wish us luck!

Kegan is also trying to master walking. She cruises well along furniture, toys, people, whatever she can get her hands on. She also does really well holding on with both her hands, but this is her practicing with only one hand. Needs a lot of work, but at the rate she has been going, I'm sure she'll have it down by this weekend. We'll get lots of practice tomorrow. I have the day off.

We've also installed one cabinet lock so far. Madison struggled through one and never made it any further, but as you can see it works well.
