Olivia is growing up too fast!

      Livy is 13 months now and I have been reallly working with her on sign and book.  Until recently it didn't seem it clicked as well as I  was expecting.  This last week has been amazing to see her grow and learn.  I was reading a book to her yesterday and it showed a family praying for dinner and I told her they were praying and folding her arms, I look down and she folded her own arms.  It was the cutest thing I had ever seen.  She now is doing so much, here are a list of some new accomplishments our cutie can do now:
-walk all over the house
-Says, "NANA" for banana
-Says, "dant do" for thank you
-Says, "DADA" constantly, always looking for dada when she wakes up
-Says, What I think is HI and Bye
-Waves when we tell her to wave or if we say HI or bye
-Points to my nose, mouth, eyes and then claps in between as I say, "YAY!" for her accomplishment
-Opens her mouth and lifts up her arms when we tell her to
-Copies sounds and mimics what we do
-Shares everything with us..toys, food, books
-Has 2 little chomper teeth in the bottom front
-Helps mommy sing songs and even tries to do the actions
-Gives the best hugs and kisses
-Gives a courtesy laugh when Adam and I are laughing
-Can baby sign, more, all done, food, and is trying to sign please
-Loves yogurt and spinach mixture to eat (green smoothie)
-Loves to eat and loves her spaghetti...Just like her mama
-Loves playing with all her cousins
-Livy is truly missed by her mommy when she is at work:(
-Loves to spend time at grandma michele's house and sing songs with her

What a cute lil girl. It took Noa a bit to take to the signing stuff too. But it's amazing to see and hear the difference once they get it.
