My how this year has flown by. You are so busy these days. It amazes me how grown up you are before my eyes. This has been a big month! You are now walking all over the place and I don't think you will ever stop now. Before you were born, Daddy called you his little goat (derived from the scientific term zygote). Well, you are living up to your name. I now call you my little goat too since you are wanting to climb on anything and everything-fireplace, dishwasher, rocking chair, bookshelves...the list goes on. You are fearless and like Mommy to swing you up in the air holding onto your hands. You laugh and giggle so sweetly!
check out the face I get when telling her no and to get down....right before I rushed over to get her down(after snapping a quick pic)
You and your little friends are starting to play together and want what each other has. It is good that we all like to get together so all of you first borns can learn to share:) The other day we had a playdate at Chik-fil-a and you and Catalina were all over the place together.
Your hair is growing in and you have somewhat of a little baby mullet. Daddy says it doesn't count since you aren't one. I think it is cute:) 
You are experimenting with table food now but don't seem to eat enough to fill you up. You have tried alot but you like peaches, pears, turkey, chicken, black beans, rice, cheese..and several other things. You LOVE bread and tortillas. You prefer to feed Missy the cheerios rather than eat them yourself. Your sippy cup is your friend and you love to gulp down the water. You love to have a spoon in your hand whether you are eating or not. This sometimes makes meals difficult if Mommy is trying to feed you with a spoon and you decide you want it. Your grip is quite strong.
Anytime a catchy tune comes on the radio you will dance (bounce up and down), you may be on your knees but you are still bouncing away to the music. We always love to watch you dance.
You have much to say, but I don't think you know what you are saying quite yet, nor do we. Pat-a-cake is a favorite game and you
"roll it" and everything. When we say "Yea!" after something you've done you will clap for yourself.

You are fast becoming your Daddy's girl. Since you are an early riser, usually around 6 am, you like to spend time in Daddy's arms before he has to leave for work. You also get very excited when he gets home from work and plays with you. Second to Daddy, Missy is also your friend. You like to give her pats and use her as a support to stand up. She is very tolerant of you especially when you drop food in her direction.
Two teeth is still the count, but Mommy thinks you might have a top tooth working its way through.
I don't want to fail to mention that you already know how to throw a little fit when you don't get your way. You will flail you arms and cry if we stop you from something you shouldn't be doing and you will drop down to the ground. Oh girl, I think we have our hands full already! You are easily distracted so they don't last long:)
Two weeks ago you were 17 lbs and 28.5 inches long. You are long, but a petite little girl. Clothes sizes range from 9-12 months and you are already a tomboy....by this I mean you enjoy playing rough with the boys and tackling them and you also like to pull your bows out of your hair as if there is no need for them.
During MOPS meetings you will stay in the nursery for about an hour until it is your nap time and then you start crying and not just a little whimper. So you are usually with the mommies for the remainder of the time. Your friend Catalina is usually your partner in crime during those times as well!
You are a very smart girl and we are enjoying watching you learn as you grow. Right now, you are very interested in taking things out and sometimes putting things back. Open and close is funn too, but sometimes you forget to remove your other hand before closing. This is when you sometimes get fustrated.
I'm sure I've missed so many thing since you are doing something new every day now it seems. We love you more and more everyday if that is possible. What a precious sweetheart you are. Mommy and Daddy love you with all our hearts and look forward to each and every moment with you.
Love always,
Mama
