Well, it's official. I asked Maddy tonight, "Can I have a kiss?" And she came up to me with an open mouth and pressed her lips against mine. Matt asked her for a kiss later and she gave Matt a kiss then turned around and gave me a kiss. So yes, my daughter has won over my heart for the zillionth time since I first met her a little over a year ago. Add that on top of her newfound skill of hugging and I'm a mommy in heaven.
So we baby-proofed the kitchen tonight. We installed locks on all the cabinets and drawers that Maddy can reach. Well, Matt did it all while Maddy and I went shopping. And I should say, we TRIED to baby-proof the kitchen. As soon as we let her in she went to the drawer under the stove and started to pull that out. So now it's taped with masking tape for the moment! Ha! She always shows us exactly what we miss within seconds. She loves being able to go in and out of the kitchen. I think she went from the kitchen to the living room and back again about 30 times in two minutes just to experience it. She's loving it right now.
Well, I had to mention the kissies. Have a good night all!
