Reflections on raising someone who is probably going to change the world.

Baby girl has somehow turned into Little Girl.

How did she get so big and smart, seemingly overnight. She now walks, nay, RUNS. She talks - actual words in context. She can now say dada, momma, no, cheese, bye-bye, hi, hey, uh-oh, hello, duck, dog, gentle, hot, up and hat. She might know the word $hi+. Oops. There was a vegetable tray forgetting incident - realized 40 miles away from home where said veggie tray was sitting peacefully on the counter, so "the word" it just came out...and guess who repeated it? We tried very hard not to laugh.

She loves to take a bunch of things out of something - cards out of a box, blocks out of a bag - and look at each one and throw them all around. She has learned to say "up" when she wants picked up which is very helpful. The alternative is that she tugs on my pants until either they fall down or I pick her up.

She loved the beach when we took her last month. She especially enjoyed the ocean and spending time with lots of people who love her. THere were wagon rides, bike rides (daddy towing her in a bike trailer) and trips to town for ice cream. Good times. A trip to the beach with a one-year-old is not very relaxing but it is still very fun.
