The news you have all been waiting for....

Our little family of 3 went yesterday to find out if our sweet little 4th member was going to be a boy or a girl..........like I and most guessed we are having a GIRL! Thats right more big hair bows and pretty little dresses! We are so excited for Adah to be a big sister to a sweet little girl! I will be sure to update more this week on little miss Adah!

Walk this way...

Look who decided to join the walking world! Adah has been taking 1 or 2 steps for awhile now but this week she decided that she wanted to really start walking! I owe a lot of things to my friend Diane who we hung out with a lot the end of last week....Adah loves her two kids and they REALLY encouraged Adah to start moving a little more! Then yesterday after hanging out with friends across the street who have 4 girls Adah decided that yesterday was indeed the day that she would start to use walking as her #1 means of getting around! I must say that Josh and I are LOVING it! It is so much fun to see her wobble around and yes fall! It is just the cutest thing! She gets so so excited and it just makes me smile! Here is a short little video of my cutie Patootie(thanks for the outfit Aunt Kahki and Joe!):

13 months!

Adah! Wow...what a smart little 13 mth old you are! You amaze me everyday! Mommy loves you more than words! You are so beautiful, smart and loving! You love to crawl over to me and daddy and just wrap your little arms around us! I just melt every time you smile with your little toofie smile! I could just squeeze you all day every day! You light up your mommy and daddy's world!

What are you up to now:

-stand on your own for a long time w/o holding on and you can even play and do other things while standing

-you have taken 1 step 2 days in a row now! You could walk but you are stubborn! ;)

-you can tell us you are thirsty and hungry ( by making a gulping noise or a smacking noise!)

-when you are asked to point to a specific animal or person by name you do

-you know when asked or when you see a duck, bird, cat, dog, cow, and coyote what sound they make(we are working on sheep and horse and you almost have those down)

-you can learn peoples names super fast

-you know how to blow kisses

-you wave bye-bye and hello ALL THE TIME

-you have 3 molars (11 teeth total)

-you are a complete HAM anywhere we go

-you weigh 23lbs 3 ozs

-size 6-12 and 12 mth clothes

-size 3 diapers but we are about to move up to size 4

-will give hugs and kisses when asked (and if she feels like it...which is the case with most things)

Mommy and Daddy just love you to pieces! We thank God for allowing us to be your parents!
