Where we have been

Life is busy, as it always has, but it seems as though my "free time" as definately been less in the last five months. I cannot believe how fast everything is going. All the parents I have known have always told me that time flys, and now I know what they mean. Lilah is now almost 14 months and talking and signing up a storm. She says the following words verbally:


NO! (VERY CLEAR!)
Baby
Ball
Baba(bottle)

Yotie(Grandma's Dog)
Papa
Mama
Dadda
Hiiiiiiiii

My darling also uses signs like CRAZY. I am finding myself having to learn new signs every day.
All finished
More
Nurse ( of which she uses ALOT)
drink
eat
flower ( and uses it abstractly too! cute when she sniffs her nose)
please
fan (she uses this one for wind too)

I am loving everyday with her. She is getting so close to walking, she has taken only two steps at a time, but she has done this several times. It is so exciting to watch my daughter grow, and learn and absorb all that is around her.

Delilah is teaching me to take life in stride. Sometimes you fall down, and it is frustrating, and it is okay to cry or whine for a minute, but in the end, you have to get back up again and keep trying to walk.
