13 Months of Tricks
So. Hey. This kid has been around for 13 months now.
HOW DID THAT HAPPEN?
I still spend most days trying to decide if she's real or not, but there you go. She's 13 months worth of real. She's also 13 months worth of prankster.
No joke.
The amazing that is Tiny Human is all about the pranks. She is constantly doing everything possible to make everyone laugh. It ranges from sticking her tongue out to pretending to share her food with you then ripping it away just as you're about to take a bite. She cackles with glee every time she makes someone laugh or thinks she has tricked someone.
She super loves to trick people.
Which is the only reason I can think of for why she's not walking yet. She is no closer to walking today than she was six months ago, which is fascinating to me. She will push around walking toys at top speed. She cruises walls and furniture like a pro. But the second she doesn't have anything to hold on to? She sits down.
Just plops.
There's no drama or anything like that. She flat-out refuses to walk. It's like it's not an option in her mind. She can crawl where she needs to go, or even better, she can trick someone into carrying her everywhere.
I have absolutely no doubt that she's capable of walking.
She just doesn't.
Which means that when the moment is just right and she thinks she has landed herself a great opportunity to screw with me, she's going to walk. It may not be today, it may not be tomorrow, but it's coming.
Keeping your mom on edge is the ultimate prank.

Our girl was the same way. Eventually, we put ping pong paddles in her hands. She didn't realize they weren't really attached to anything, so she would run around holding them. The moment we took them out of her hands, she sat back down again.
she is perfect
