She may not be verbalizing too much yet, but she's not dumb! She's soaking everything in. This week has been one of those where she's been kinda the same for awhile and now all of the sudden she is learning and doing all kinds of new things!
Allie can point out her nose and her feet, when she wants to, of course. Dada was talking about football the other day (because when doesn't he talk about football?) and she pointed to his football up on the fireplace mantel. She's had a runny nose for a few days and now she will wipe her nose if we give her the cloth and ask her to do it. Of course, thats also subject to her whim.
She's also signing "please" and "wash hands." Its funny to see the way she carries on sometimes. She hates to have her face washed, but seems to love washing her hands and the kitchen sink. Dada and I are always saying this, but its getting more important by the day: we must watch what we say!
Today Allie is 17 months old! Its still hard to believe she's growing up so fast. She runs around and has entered the temper tantrum stage as well as "play hard and get overtired later" and "ham it up for the camera and guests" stages. We had all three of these together last night, which made for a rough, but entertaining evening!
Our 17-month-old has just added another tooth to her mouth! She now has 12, four front teeth each on the top and bottom and four molars. It was the fourth bottom tooth that cut this week and made her a little miserable on Sunday and Monday.
We're so so many new things, I just hope the weather finally warms up so we can start exploring outside more!
