Blows Me Away!

Havent taken any new pix since last blog, so here's one of Ahna with the babies!!!

I havent been blogging much lately because nothing has been new, then all of a sudden, she did so many new things! One is that she's practically running! I wouldnt say officially yet, but this girl MOVES!

Last night she kept whispering this word, and I dunno where she got it or why she was saying it, but it was Clear As Day, "Happy" and she said it over & over... and we'd ask her to say happy, and she'd say it again! Funny thing is, she only whispers it, hasnt said it out loud, haha!

My mom says she loves how Diella has been so distinctly communicating, like yesterday the two of them were in the laundry room (where Diella gets her baths)... and she pointed to the utility sink (where we bathe her) and she said & signed bath... she was ASKing for a bath! So I gave her one!

Ok, Diella loves water & she loves milk! But funny thing is, she wont take milk from a sippy cup... to Diella, water comes in a sippy cup, milk comes in a bottle... i want to get her away from the bottle soon... i tried once before, and again last night, putting milk in a sippy cup, she took it, stared at it like 'thats Not water' then took a sip, then looked at it again, and handed it back... it confuses her... dangit! it was funny tho! Hehe, we'll keep trying...

Oh there's a few animals sounds she's trying... she tries to Meow, she tries to whiney like a horse... she panted like a dog the other day, but its not consistent...

she sorta does the sign for baby, but it looks like the same thing she does for love, so i'm not sure

She made me cry yesterday! We were in the car, dada, me & Ahna... trying to keep Diella occupied on a slow, backed-up street... we were going through eyes ears nose mouth, that kind of thing... when Diella gives hugs or kisses out, we say "aw" and "thats nice!" and lately she's been wrapping her arms around herself and moving side to side, (I've never tried to teach her the sign for love) but now when we ask her if she loves something, she does this... so then we asked her to say love, and she puckers up and reaches toward mommie for a kiss, so I bend down & give her a kiss, and she crosses her arms in front of her & then points right to me!!! Never taught her how to say I love you, and she just did it!!! I felt SOOOO Loved!!! Me & Ahna's mouths drop open, I throw my hands over my mouth & had immediate tears... it was the greatest feeling! Then she did it a second time... such a special moment!!!

I feel like there's a few things I'm forgetting, but I'll keep you posted!
