First Birthday

Happy First Birthday! Congratulations to you, and us, for finishing the year out strong. I feel like this last week a flip was switched and you can do so many new things. You've added some words to your vocabulary, you now say hot- making the h and t sounds, you can also say hi and often talk on your phone, to who I'm not sure. And you've started to say do-do, which everyone knows means dog. You say it when you hear one and see one, a live one or a picture- go you, that is a big accomplishment!

You've also grown quite a bit, as we see from your photos, but you are "walking" now, across the living room and down the hall, often without being prompted- it's so exciting!

And my new favorite, you seem to understand us now, you can follow directions, bringing me socks or toys from where you are sitting. Ahhh to be understood. I know you also love to be understood, 'cause when I acknowledge that there actually is a do-do (dog) outside you get so excited, almost in tears with relief. Here's to another year of learning to communicate. 
We love you girl, Happy First Birthday!
