Amazing kids...

There are two things that are happening now that have been amazing me. The first is that Sofia has really taken to working on puzzles. She has a puzzle for ages 3+ that has 30 pieces that she puts together all by herself. I just think that is really impressive (although I do recognize that could just be me being a proud mom). The second thing is that Ali insists on climbing the stairs by herself. We live on the 3rd floor (in the U.S. this would be the fourth floor). By the top she is huffing a little but she still just wants to do it herself. It takes her forever so some days I just pick her up and deal with the screaming but other days I just let her do it herself. It is just impressive to me that at 18 months old she climbs up so many steps by herself.
