Alana small & mighty

Alana never ceases to amaze us. She is all about organization. I'll never forget our first Sunday at Regen church. We were picking the kids up from the nursery and the helper told us the kids were sad most of the time but that Alana really perked up when it came time to clean up and put the toys away. She hopped into action putting toys in all their proper places. Her crib is pictured below. Note the organization of her stuffed animals, she clearly got this from her Mother.

Recently, we have gone up to the top of the backyard where there is a plastic slide from the previous owners on the top of the terrace. We had quite a rotation going, lifting a kid to the slide and then watching them slide down. Alana decided that she wanted to scale the wall. Sure enough, she was climbing a 5 foot stone wall all by herself after just two attempts.
