Natalie is growing growing and she had her first hair cut (trim of about 1/8 mm out of her eyes - just enough for me to have a 'first curl' for her scrapbook!) and I've been trying to put bows in it more...she hates it! I have to fight her for it but she looks so cute if I can manage!
Her Mimi bought her some bright pink shoes with squeakers in the soles...and she LOVES them. Now when we go out she wants to walk everywhere and step as hard and fast as she can to squeak as many times as she can. Then when someone says, "aww, look at her!" She will look up and grin and wave as though she knows everyone must be talking about or to her! I have NO idea where she gets any of that from! Oh and she is so funny about shoes now. She wakes up and the first thing she does is point to her shoe shelf and say, "shoes, bye bye!" It's so cute with her bed head she is ready to go out the door! I took her to buy shoes and when we entered the store, she looked all around and said, "shooooooes!" like she was in shoe heaven! I cracked up!
She has been working on shapes for a while now and the past couple of weeks she can put most of her shapes into the different shape sorters without any help at all! She has letters A,B,C,D as well on her favorite barn toy and she can do all four of those as well. We are quite proud!
She loves to sing and loves to have Jon and I sing to her. She will make song requests to us by singing a little of the song, grinning at both of us and waiting for us to start singing. If one of us sings and the other does not, she will look at the one of us NOT singing until we start! Her favorites are 'Ol MaGowah' (Old Macdonald) and 'Ba Ba' (Bah Bah Black Sheep) and 'spied' (Itsy Bitsy Spider) where we also BETTER do the hand motions while singing or one diva will correct us on our behavior by doing some of the motions herself and yelling out like, "no, this way!"
The storms were bad last night, the worst we've seen since living in Paulding County. Jon decided last night that he would stay home and all night we would get up to check how far the water had risen toward our basement...the waiting game was hard. We just didn't know (even until that last terrible storm was over this morning around 7am) if our basement would flood or not. Our neighbors to the immediate right (if you are looking at our house) were not so lucky. They had water to their waists in their basement and a truck sitting in their back yard had water up to the hood. It was horrible for them. We are hoping/praying that the storms are less severe tonight.
Now what you've been waiting for: photos and videos of our little princess!
Oh and here's our yard, and our neighbor's yard today after the rain:
Here she is post mall trip with her diva outfit complete with squeaker shoes:
Montage of video taken since her birthday: 1st baby doll, dancing, learning to walk, 'talking' (yeah!) playing 'charge' with Daddy, and 'Ol Mcgowah'
Yay, go Daddy's school!
