Labor Day Weekend
MaMa & PaPa Pearce were at a local campground so we visited them several times throughout the weekend. HVN Loved her time with them and the great outdoors!!
HVN Loves Her Baby Alexander
It amazes me how young maternal instincts kick in! She knows to love her baby and feed her, but she doesn't feed her three times a day!

Shoes....but No Purses in Daddy's Closet!!!
She thought she new better than Daddy what shoes he should wear that day. She is a girl, so she's probably right!!!
Sweet Sounds
When Hope finishes all her lunch and dinner I normally offer her a vanilla wafer, she loves them! Well, on Wednesday, I said would you like a cookie? She responded with the "Please" sign and said, "Tootie". So I said of course you can have a tootie!! How cute was that??
She Does Like To Dance
I wonder if being a ballerina is in HVN's future, if not, she sure does look cute in the outfit!!!! So hard to believe she is getting this big. She can't twirl but she will be soon enough.

We Are Great
HVN moved up to the walker room on Sunday for promotion Sunday :(. She did great and seem to enjoy being with them, she is almost walking but not quite ready to let go of mommys hand. Thats quite alright with me. She looked precious on this day too, She was able to wear her Easter dress one more time, can't believe it still fit her.
She received a couple vaccinations today but more importantly she's off the charts in height and head measurements...and she looks perfect. She weighs 24 lbs and is 31 and a1/2 inches long at 13 months old. Gonna be a tall girl!!!!
She's eating anything she can get her hands on but especially loves chicken, veggies and fruit. Her favorite dessert is vanilla wafers. She loves her cold water sippy cup but it has to have ice in it. It just doesn't taste right without the shake and rattle effect of ice.
She's saying Hi DaDa, bye, Amen, PaPa, Momma was her very 1st word and she still says it :), She can sign Please, bye bye, More, and thank you.
She understands so well and follows many directions such as; sit down, take that out of your mouth, thats not a toy, come here, give it to mommy/daddy and STOP! Stop is basically for her safety and she is very good at obeying. We've refrained from always saying No, but give her clear directions and she responds much better.
We are having to work on Teeth are not for biting right now. She doesnt bite kids yet, but bites the furniture and us. I think because we play with her and blow on her skin and nibble on her chin that she is trying to do it back. Anyway, we know we have to stop it soon.
Her other favorite thing is to be outside. She loves her pink cadilac and swing. She also enjoys her new kitchen and the Zebra bouncy!!
She recognizes songs,people, food, and her favorite toys/books and baby dolls.
Her mind is expanding and its such a blessing to watch and be a part of!!
