14 Months Old

Dear Lily,
You are learning more and more each day! I'm so impressed with your under standing of the world around you now! In this past month you have been working hard at figuring out the things around you. You've figured out that you can climb into boxes, you've figured out that chairs are for sitting, phones are for talking, buttons are to be pressed, and doors are to be opened. Just in the past few days you learned how to turn the TV on and off by pressing the button on the TV. You know exactly which button to press to get your desired result! You also started imitating me by blowing on your food in the past few days. I don't know if you know that you do that to cool food down, but you like to blow in things now.

Today you learned about falling leaves. When I took you out for our photo shoot, you saw a leaf caught up in the branches of a tree. You were determinded to pull it down!
After getting it down and examining it, and other leaves for a while, you tried to put it back on the tree! Seeing that I knew you had made the connection that leaves go on trees! It's amazing to see you figure these things out!

This month we started bringing you to the Little Gym. You really like getting to socialize with the other kids each week, and love exploring the gym. You really love doing forward and back and rolls now. At home you bend over with you hands on the ground and wait for me to come over and flip you, then you stand back up with a huge grin on your face and clap for yourself!
You are such a ham!

I already wrote last week about all the words you have. I think you might have a few more right around the corner. I heard you say "hey" today, and yesterday you said something that sounded close to shoes while I was putting your shoes on. You haven't repeated it though. You still say Uh Oh and baby all the time. I'm working on teaching you bottle, juice, and Lily now.

I can't believe how far you have come in the last month! I'm really proud of everything you do! Keep growing and learning monkey! We love you!

Love,
Mommy

The photo shoots for this month didn't go to well. Here is the only nice shot I got:

To make up for the bad photo's from this photo shoot, I'm going to post a few from last week that I took I Lily in her Halloween costume. I was going to save them for Halloween, but oh well!

Lily, the cutest skunk around:
