14 months! (yesterday)

Abby, 14 months have gone by, that is crazy!

You are adorable.
I love it when you lean in to "cuddle" when you get really happy about something you lean your head in and rest it on whatever part of the other person's body that is closest (my leg if I am standing up, my shoulder, my head, etc.)





 You give us this look all the time and it cracks me up....It's your serious face.
 Grandma and Grandpa got you a swing for the back"yard" and you LOVE it!  You always laugh and cheer when in your swing, it is too cute.  Dad-o took some great pics of you on your 14 month bday!





(And the super cute fuzzy vest was made by nana....)


You LOVE these girls. Whenever we see them you smile really big and start bouncing up and down.  You even said "Sam" last weekend!  The girls spent the night and went in your room when you woke up in the morning.  I was changing your diaper and you looked at Sam and said, "sam!"  Sammi was so cute, she said, "Cookie, Cookie, she said my name!"  Of course, I cried.  You have a pretty special relationship with that Sammi girl.
 Such a big girl!
 Our trip to Dayton..This was the first time you stood on your own (you let go of the table and ate a cracker!) at Larry and Julie's house.  We were so excited!
 We even got to visit great grandma Klenke!

Momma's favorite part of the day: when you laugh and cuddle with me as we wrestle on the floor.
Dad-o's favorite part of the day: when you wake up and have your bottle on the couch as we watch the news.  You are super cuddly then.

Right now you are watching Baby Signing Time, you love these videos....They are signing a song about signing "more"  I just looked at you and you signed "more".  Who says TV doesn't teach our kids new things?  haha! Well, you have been signing "more" for a long time, but you made the connection that they were signing about more....

You are a sleeping champ and I love that.  I always panic a little when you wake up at night because I am so used to sleeping through the night.  You are in bed by 7:00, and don't wake up till 7:30ish.  I LOVE it!

You still nap 2x a day...We tried to change that up and move into one nap, but you still need two.

You are an eating machine...yesterday you had curry chicken, mangoes, bread, and a bit of cheese for breakfast....We don't really follow the "breakfast" rules around here.....

Whenever something falls on the floor you say, "Uh oh" so cute.

You are starting to stand!  It is so fun.  Just yesterday grandma was over and you would stand up, squat down, sit down and then start clapping for yourself.  You are getting used to the idea of standing without the couch and may walk eventually.

You furniture walk everywhere...we have you go back and forth along the couch, ottoman, and coffee table...When you finish we let you hold our phone or the remote for a second and you are thrilled!

You really like to feed yourself and would prefer to do it all yourself.  That makes it tricky when feeding you yogurt...Because when we give it to you, it is an absolute mess!

You play catch, color with crayons, play "love" (i.e. rub your head into my shoulder), you blow on your food, try to put your own shoes and socks on, quack at the ducks, say "dog" when we see one, and sometimes hold our hands when we pray (other times you push our hands away....).

You melt my heart baby girl.  I love you.
