On a leash

When Karen--a friend and neighbor who stayed with Kyla the night Piper was born--and I took the girls to the Seattle Art Museum, I put Kyla on her teddy bear leash. That afternoon, she wanted to wear it again, but this time, she wanted to hold the leash! Kyla is very much into the "I do it myself" stage.
She may have gotten into this from our recent walks with Karen and her dog, Callie. Piper outweighs Callie by quite a bit, so she's just the right size for Kyla to "walk." Karen gives Kyla the leash, and as both the dog and the toddler have similar attention spans, it seems to work well!
