Yesterday Bella turned 13 months old. We love her more & more each day and have learned so much as we’ve watched her grow and develop into our little princess.
She’s sweet yet feisty.
She’s a drama queen and can cry (with tears) in a blink of an eye.
She loves her “baby” and has to hold it while sucking her thumb to sleep. It will comfort her when she’s tired or sad. And luckily we have two so we are never without one.
Bella loves food. Especially cheerios, bananas!, apples, pasta, bagels, graham crackers and raisins!!
She always shares her food with Purdy. And sometimes Toby if he hangs around long enough.
Bella now sits at the table like a big girl … but ALWAYS sits with her left leg over the side of the chair. Always. Sometimes her little tootsies even sneak onto the table.
Bella loves bubbles and playing outside.
She adores Dora and likes to dance when she hears music.
She loves getting her way and has to be the center of attention. Always.
She likes to cuddle.
She loves to walk, although is still learning so has to hold onto someone/something. She has the balance but doesn’t trust herself to let go yet.
Bella loves her Daddy. And loves to take off his glasses.
She sits like Mommy used to.
Bella loves Purdy, Toby and Claire and squeals when she seems them.
She can give kisses by leaning her forehead towards you.
Bella smiles at the world and will let anyone hold her.
Bella loves to “dress up” and wear necklaces, bracelets and always admires everyone’s jewelry.
She points and grunts at everything and sounds like a monkey more often than not.
Bella has learned to hit although Mommy is doing her best to teach her that is not okay!
She loves to explore and get into everything!
Bella is our world and we simply love her.
Precious!
ReplyDeleteThe pic of her at the table was cracking me up. John likes to push his chair back using his feet and be a foot from the table at all times. very messy. And then he props his feet on the table too. :) The pic of her sucking her thumb is cute and I thought 'cute outfit' and then realized I bought it! (I think!) hahahahah
ReplyDeleteThe picture with the bubbles is my fav.
