Update

This week Ivy started signing "All Done" and she started clapping. She will clap if you say "Clap" or if you say "Good Girl". Oh what a heart warming sight it is.

First Dentist Apt and EXCITING NEWS!!

Today Ivy had her first dentist apt. She now has 2 top and 2 bottom teeth. One of the top teeth came in first so it is more grown in then the other. We aren't sure if she chipped it or it was just sharp from the get go. It was so painful to nurse that we had the dentist grind it down a bit on the chipped side. It isn't as straight as it was but it isn't permanent.

Oh and for those of you who haven't heard yet......

Ivy has taken her first steps. On her 11th month birthday she took her first steps. She isn't all that interested in walking as her primary form of transportation yet but I predict that when you see her at her birthday she will be walking well. :)

Fun in the Sun

Ivy and I had some friends over the other day for a play date. It was warm so we set the sprinkler up in the back yard. It was new to all the kids so it wasn't a big hit yet....but I assume that next time everyone will be running through at full speed. Here are some of the pictures I took of Ivy while she was sitting, watching the fun.

Sometime I krinkle my nose when I smile :)


Oh look food.....


Ok how do I get this open?


Case or Food?


Case


I wonder if these come in different flavors?

Mother's Day

Here are 2 pictures of Ivy and Aliyah playing on Mother's Day.



(Ivy may become a hair dresser) or a drummer we aren't sure yet :)

Daddy and me

Here is just a picture of Greg and Ivy sitting in the big chair.

I took Ivy to the doctors for just a weight and measurement check this week. She is 16lbs 8.5 oz. and is 26.5 inches long. This puts her in the 5% for weight and the 10% for height. But is this really a surprise with the women in my family. We are all shorter then 5' 6".

She is now standing by herself. I predict she will be walking well by her birthday party in June. (not sure if that is exciting or scarey)
