HAPPY BIRTHDAY, Princess!

Things I can do:
- I am starting to speak really well. I'm putting 3 words together and I love to tell stories.
- I love to tickle and be tickled.
- Climbing has taken on a new meaning. I like to climb on things and stand on them, things like the table. Mama says that I really shouldn't be doing that.
- I love to identify things. Roll Call at the dinner table is always fun, just ask Uncle Dan and Aunt Niki.
- Play Doctor.
- Throw a ball (and other small objects.) Mama says I have good aim. I've managed to knock Jon square in the head a few times.
- Dance. I've started taking dance lessons. I love to TAP! The shoes are the best. However, I still walk on tiptoes and the doctor said that I have a "tight" achilles.
- EAT. My passion is still eating. I can eat with the best of them. Meal time is my favorite time. Well, that and snack time!

Things I can do:
-I CAN WALK! Wow, what a cool thing!

-I am getting quite good at Baby Sign Language. I know and use the signs for “more”, “eat”, “help”, “telephone” and “wash hands”. I’m learning “drink”, “up”, and “down”.

-I eat like a HORSE. I wish Mama would feed me all day. That would make me very happy. The other day, I signed to Mama “eat” “help” “more”; which she correctly deciphered as “help me eat more”. I would have added a “please” but I don’t know that sign yet.

-I have gotten much better at being a “good baby” on the changing table. I have a few books that I like to read and that keeps me entertained. At least for this week.
