13 months!

Our bathing beauty in her second bath of the day. She absolutely loves being outside and in the dirt pile with her brothers...it's a good thing she lives on a farm. As with all of my babes, the lawn mower has been a big hit and Maddie is no exception to this. She's picking up new words everyday and uses much intonation when she speaks. It's so cute. Her latest words are: "giocle, giocle" (tickle, tickle), "otie" (doggy), she moo's which is "mmmm", she quickly says "huh" (uh-huh) even when the question being asked isn't finished, and she's now starting to use yes and no head shakes in context (especially when she's finished eating...that one is definitely a NO head shake 100% of the time). She's not a great performer "on-demand", it's all on Maddie's terms. She's a really cute bobble head when she hears music and loves to imitate our actions and noises. The best is her Purell hand sanitizing impression...it's very vigorous and serious business! Her last Synagis shot was this month (yippee!) and she hit 19 lbs. 13 oz. on the scale that day! Pretty impressive when exactly a year ago, she weighed 6 lbs. 13 oz.! And for my current favorite expression of hers: the scrunchy face/snorty nose sound...pretty cute, huh!?!
