Korbyn has become quite independent lately. She always wants to do everything by herself then if she needs help she'll let you know. After coming home from school one day she grabbed my lunchbox and started putting all her things in it and carrying it around like a purse.
Then she grabbed her baby and tried to put it in as well. I could see she was having a hard time with it so I tried to help her, oh no! It took her probably five minutes turning it this way and that until she got that baby in that bag, but she got it. She seems very determined and persistent all the time!
And then every time I load or unload the dishwasher she's right there trying to help me. I let her help me as much as she can because I don't want to discourage her from doing it, so she'll hand me a plate or two and that's about all she can do. The only thing I don't let her mess with is the silverware holder, so of course that's the one thing that she's always going to! The pictures are blurry but that's about 90% of what my pictures look like when I take them of this quick rascal. She's trying to hand me some of her snack, or "nack" as she likes to call it.
And now with any type of food you have to let her hold it, no more breaking off pieces and handing them to her or holding it and letting her have a bite. In fact she'll often throw a mini temper tantrum when I won't let her hold certain things. She knows that I keep bananas on the counter in a bowl so almost every morning she'll walk over and point up at the counter and say "nana!" and I have to peel it just a little and let her hold it. I have to say, she does surprisingly well. I have to keep an eye on her though because she'll nibble it all the way down and start biting at the peel so I have to tell her "let mommy fix it" and she'll then hand it to me.
