Addison has taken up the habit of carrying things around lately. She seems to always have something in her hand, whether it is a ball, a toy, a book, my nursing pad, it doesn't really seem to matter! This makes life a little more difficult for her at times because when she wants to pull up to stand, her hands are full so either she uses other parts of her body to pull up (like her head) or she drops the item but then has to bend down and pick it up and start the whole pull-up process again. Last night it was plastic spoons. She likes to get into the pantry while I'm cooking, and I have pretty much cleared out the 2 bottom shelves that she can reach of anything dangerous. She had 4 spoons at first, but we widdled it down to 2-one for each hand. Those spoons went with her while she ate, while she played, while she took a bath, got her pjs on and while we read our Bible story and brushed teeth. They came along for her last feeding as well. I had to put my foot down for bedtime, though, as I could picture her poking herself in the eye with the end while she slept! Pretty soon, I'm sure it will be purses and car keys!
