The Pig Personality

The Pig at 15 months

She is walking quite well, will occasionally take a tumble but learning quickly how to balance herself. She's discovered that to put her shoes on (or daddy's shoes on), she should hold onto something stable first.

She is a dancing fool. My sister, her Emo, visited for a week and demonstrated some great Indian dance moves as we listened to Chaiyya Chaiyya on youtube.com. Pig stared intensely for a few seconds and threw herself wildly into it, her arms were a fat little blur as she waved them about. She was sitting in her high chair which I thought just might flip over from the force of her dancing.

Girlfriend got herself a temper. Pig and Emo were playing with a plastic laundry basket. Emo held onto the basket as Pig climbed in. I was doing the dishes when all of a sudden I hear a loud shriek of anger. I come running to find Pig standing and glaring back at the basket and her Emo rolling with laughter. (Apparently, Pig got stuck trying to get out of the basket) Then in a huff she turned around, shaking her hands and yelling, "No-no, no-no!" She then proceeded to take her anger out on the kitchen cupboards. But she soon got over it and she and the basket have since reconciled.
