KayKay is walking!

 So, KayKay is finally walking! She'd taken a few steps here and there, but yesterday we went to the library and it seems like something clicked. She was walking all over the place. We shot a bunch of video, but here are the highlights. I love how Zofia & Maggie interact with her. So much love; and the feeling is mutual.
There is also a clip from a couple of days ago showing Kake going through some of the words she knows. She is super smart and seems to understand most of what we say. She can follow instructions and today helped me gather some clothes from around the room and put them in the laundry hamper. She loves to help. Though she understands tons of words, she says only a few. Off the top of my head, here is a list.
Maow! - she says this anytime she sees a cat, a picture of a cat or anyone says the word cat.
Mommy
Dada
Cheese - if someone points a camera or phone at her.
Eye
Hair - which sounds like eau
Ear - which sounds almost exactly like hair
Teeth
Boobie
Hi
Byebye
Mmmmmm - if she wants a bite of something.
Nai Nai - 'nite-nite
No!
Also, she sings Twinkle Twinkle. The tune is totally recognizable, but the words are not exactly. The only part that sounds remotely correct is "up above the world so high", which comes out, "up a a a hi hi hi".
We also sing a diaper changing song, which she now sings all the time. Well, at least the last two words, which are "diaper now". So all day long she is either singing "up a  a  a  hi hi hi" or "diaper noooooow".
Very musical baby.
