Reverting to Babyhood

So we've been getting some of the baby stuff out in anticipation of Graham's arrival and Marin has been all over it. I'm afraid she has broken the swing by climbing in and out of it a million times. Here she is in the bouncer (which is almost touching the floor). She made sure to bring her teddy bear with her. I am so curious how she's going to be when there's a tiny baby occupying her new toys. Marin is at a really cute stage and she has lots of words for us and several songs that she regularly sings (or tries to sing). Even though she's constantly getting into things and making endless messes, she really is a joy to be around and I'm sad to see her passing from a baby to a big girl. I'm constantly amazed at all the new things she's absorbing and all the new skills she's learning (like how to reach through her crib while in time out and grab a poopy diaper out of the trash so she can "play" with it's contents and paint poopy pictures on her bedding). Oh the joys!

HAHA! Cade is doing all those same things to Chloe's stuff. His favorite is to climb in and out of her swing! A note of encouragement: Now that she is actually occupying them, he does NOT try to climb on her or pull her out! Thank goodness!!
