A growing child

K. 4 days old.
K. at a marching band competition. She was around 3-4 months old, and REALLY wanted those nachos.
8 months old at the Ft Worth Zoo. She thought it was a puppy.
Carefully eating her cake at her first birthday party. Notice the fact that there is no mess, and she is using a fork. Is this normal??

I have more pictures from her second year, but they aren't on this computer. I still look at her as if she is my little 4 day old baby, sleeping in my arms while in reality she is an almost 2 year old child, who is becoming more and more independent every day.
