When Heather was a little baby, we started a journal for her. It is a place that we write about what she's doing, how she's developing, and memories that we want to keep. It has gotten a lot more fun recently, because Heather is finally doing cute things that are fun to remember. I mean, who cares how much she weighed at her two month appointment! I want to remember all the funny and cute things she says and does! Here are a couple of recent updates.
- Heather puts her firefighter hat on and says "he-er-hi-er-hi-der."
- Heather has started singing more. She loves to sing her ABC's and also Old McDonald. This is the best video I could get...
- She comes into the kitchen when I am cooking, points at the stove and says, "berry, berry hot, Berrrry hot!"
- At the dinner table one night she started signing baby and singing "baby, baby, baby, baby..." then she suddenly stopped and said "Awww...."
- When Heather finishes something hard for her, or when she comes inside when it's really cold she'll say "whew!"
- When she wants held or just a hug she'll tilt her head to one side, put her hands out, and say "mmeeeerre" (come here).
- Heather seems to have a hard time with the "Pl" sound. When she wants to say "play," it comes out like "pbbbbay" (the b's here represent lip buzzing). She does the same thing with "plate."
- We had the missionaries over for dinner recently. For dessert we had apple crisp. During the holiday season (in other words, the time of a surplus of pie) Daniel and I would say "Heather do you want some pah?" (pie...southern accent). When we brought out the dessert that night, Heather said "Oh! Pah!!" The missionaries got a kick out of it. I guess we are raising a little southern belle.
- Heather has been singing a long during her bedtime songs. I love it!
- She is also starting to whistle. Neither of us has tried to teach her, she just started doing it.
- We recently got some Fancy Nancy books at the library. Heather has started saying "Ooh, la-la!" at random. :)
