This Fun Needs Fuel

So Jaina is absolutely starving--all the time--lately. She is constantly signing "eat" and "more" and seems to be just constantly thinking about food. It seems like this has been going on for about 2 weeks. At the same time, she won't eat just anything. She's gotten pickier lately, and thinks veggies are kind of lame. Which is funny, because suddenly Reilly has decided broccoli actually IS food, and he likes it. An about-face from the last year... Anyway, I don't know if it's a growth spurt, or teething, or both, but I can hardly keep up with her constant need to eat!
Maybe now that she's walking well and getting around all of a sudden, she just expends more energy. She is finding all kinds of fun things she can do. Earlier I glanced over and she was right outside my bedroom door, looking at a library book. A few minutes later I hear a quiet "no, no, no" and go to see what's going on. Here she is, happily (but guiltily, it seems) shredding the toilet paper. What are we going to do with this girl? :)
If you're into videos, I am putting a video of this scene HERE.

she's probably having a growth spurt. Funny that she was telling herself no, no
