13 Months

                        Just a little update on our sweet girl, who is now 13 months old!

                         First of all, she is walking EVERYWHERE, and it is now her preferred mode of

                          mobility.

 She LOVES Pat the Cat and Pat the Bunny.  These are always the first books that she grabs and she brings them to us while saying, "this this".  

Please take note of the poor baby doll on the floor.  This is her absolute favorite doll ( which was actually one of my very first dolls).   She walks around holding it and "talking" to it (often in a whisper voice)--it's too cute. 

Digging through her diaper bag and pulling everything out is another one of her favorite activities.  I often find her playing with my wallet.

 She loves her "bear bear".  Grayson has helped to nurture this bad habit.  He loves to bring her the bear anytime she whines or cries.  So when she gets tired, she quickly heads to her room to pull "bear bear" out of her crib.

 She got a new chair for her birthday and absolutely LOVES it.  I often find her in her room sitting in her chair with her books and babies. 

 She's starting to play with Little People, so she particularly likes this dollhouse. 

A few more favorites:  shoes and brushing her teeth.  

She has started to say the word "shoes" and loves to pull out her collection and attempt to try them on. 

And whenever I mention brushing her teeth, she gets really excited and makes her way to the bathroom.

Our little girl is growing up so quickly.    She's such an active little thing with a BIG personality!
