Little Singer

Last night we went to Darrell's house to watch American Idol. We have to take the freeway there, and it is a long bumpy ride. The bumping makes your voice vibrate ....therefore....you sang the whole way there. For 15 minutes you sang and the top of your lungs to hear you voice vibrate. Your face is soooo serious while you are doing it. You stared out the window and sang your heart out. All we can see if your two cute bottom teeth. Daddy and I couldnt stop laughing. When you got a little bored of it, Daddy or I would sign with you and it would pop you right back into action. It was so much fun.

I think the best and craziest part for me is that you started doing it on your own. It is weird for you to start having a mind of your own, making your own decisions. You are becoming a little person who wants to do her own thing when she wants to. Below are a few candid shots of you doing just that :) Watching TV, messing with Mommy's computer, and climbing (then standing and balancing) on Daddy's chair.



The past couple of weeks have been pretty uneventful...which is good for a change. We have gone out a few times looking at houses, taken you to gymnastics and swimming lessons and hung out at home. We did venture out to the Library for the first time as a family (well..first time checking out books...last time we went to see Rockea read to kids). Anyway, let's just say that you really didn't understand the whole "quiet in the library" concept. You loved it in there, and wanted everyone to know it. You refused to sit still and let Mommy read to you. You just wanted to run around laughing and singing...VERY loud. So our trip was kind of short.

We checked out a couple of books that we read every day. You love when we read to you. Daddy can't read kids books without doing a funny voice. You really enjoy it though.

Last Friday night you had your first slumber party. Alex, Mary and Sammy came over. We built a tent in the living room and watched Annie and Sponge Bob. Sammy went home after dinner, and the bigger girls stayed over. You guys ate tons of candy and had donuts after your swimming lessons Saturday morning. So fun.

Bathtime fun - nice hair :)

In case this isn't captured anywhere.. your first word was dog...both in sign language and verbally.
