February Fun

We trekked down to K&G's house for Haley's birthday.  It was the only thing that she really wanted to do!  I couldn't talk her into a play, fancy dinner etc.  She just wanted to see Alaina.  

Well Alaina didn't disappoint.  She remembered us, welcomed us and showed off for us like crazy.  

After we were done greeting one another at the door she wanted to show us all her toys and kept pointing to the living room! 

 This is her new way of smiling!

 

Babies are little learning machines.  We can't believe how much she's learned each time we see her!

 

Uncle Matthew is the choice for wild playing.  They were "chasing" each other around and around this chair. She loved it.

 

 

She is such a sparkler and is obviously delighted with all the things she can do now!

 Then she noticed that her Mom was eating a cutie orange. 

She got herself right over there, pointed right at it and signed "more" and "eat".  We had never seen her do that before. 

Intelligent child.  She definitely got that from her Grandparents! 

Gretchen mentioned that it was time to brush her teeth.  Off she crawled straight to the bathroom. It was so much fun to watch.

It was amazing if the tooth brush made any contact with her teeth!

But she loved every minute of it! 

When they were all done, there was not a drop of foam in her mouth but she had to lean over the sink and make spitting sounds. That was totally unexpected and we just burst out laughing!

 

Here is little miss with Grandpa "reading" a book.

She knows all about these flaps and showed Gpa how it's done!

Grandpa doesn't read it like Mama and he makes the best noises!
