Only One Month to Go!

Can it really be that my first year with you is almost coming to an end?  You have added so much joy and laughter to our lives, sweet Charlotte.  Watching you and your sister grow together is amazing too.  I love how you make one another laugh and how you talk to one another in your own special language.

At this point you have six teeth in your mouth, but you're drooling like crazy, so I imagine that there may be one or two to add to the list as early as tomorrow morning.  You've got a couple of words in your vocabulary like "Dada" and "Wee!"  You're starting to copy a lot of the sounds that we're making too.  You even tried to "boop" your own nose today!  Bread and pasta are your current favorite foods, just like your mommy and daddy.  You are becoming quite the champion eater! :o)

Most of your day is spent pulling up on everything and cruising around all of our furniture; you have even started to use moving toys to help you practice walking.  I still think that your first independent steps are a little ways away, but it's going to happen before I'm ready for it, I can tell you that much!
