SteelyKid spent a long weekend with Kate's mom, and we went down there yesterday to pick her up. This picture, snapped during a playground visit this morning, gives you some idea of her energy level.

Just so you know, that energy level is going to last a long time. Once they can run, there's no stopping them!
