    An awefully cute bundle of energy



    She passed her 15 month well baby visit with flying colors. She is now just shy of 31" tall and 23 lbs. both around the 50th percentile (that average her daddy was looking for a few months back).

    She is trying to talk. She can say Mama, Daddy, Dog and Duck(anything with wings and a beak), Owl, Ssss(as in snack or what a snake says), jibberish that we think is "Mommy help" and "Me Some" (i.e. I want some). She signs: more, please, fish, thank you. And she can point to most of her body parts.

    Slowly but surely her teeth are coming in, though the lack of them doesn't stop her from eating much of anything. Fruit is still her favorite with meat a close second.

    She loves to help with anything especially emptying the silverware from the dishwasher, putting clothes in the washer or dryer, closing drawers and doors, picking up the things she pulls out (books, tupperware lids, etc). She even helps with the remodeling project (picking up screws and scraps or eating the tape measure).

    She loves the swings, slide and sand at the park and is always eager to jump in the stroller to go on an adventure. She loves the swimming pool or playing in water and sprinklers in the back yard. So far only one unripe tomato has been picked.

    She loves to give kisses and is very sweet to watch with her baby dolls.

    Her favorite game with daddy right now goes like this.
    Daddy: "Mara, what's my name"
    Mara: "Ma Ma"
    Daddy: "Mara, what's my name"
    Mara: "Ma Ma"
    Daddy: "Mara, what's my name"
    Mara: "Ma Ma"
