3 going on 13

Kira is such a big girl now and is always looking for ways to prove it! She has been wanting to help me around the house...load the dishwasher, sweep the floors, etc. She also loves to "watch" Alayna for me if I need to go into the other room. LOL!
Last night, when Alayna was up ALL night puking, I didn't get any sleep. Alayna finally fell into a good sleep around 8am. Kira woke up right around the same time (of course) and tried to wake me. I told her I needed a few more minutes. I guess she knew I really needed to sleep. She went to the bathroom and carried her rather large stepstool into the kitchen to get a banana off the counter. Then, she got a plastic cup from the dishdrainer and got a glass of water from the fridge. She even found leggings and a shirt in the clean laundry pile and got dressed! Whew! She's never done any of that before.
I think she finally did go out and wake up daddy, who helped get everything else settled, but she was such a proud girl this morning for taking care of herself so well!
