(These pictures are from a couple months ago, but you can see the toddler coming out here.)
One- Teresa is turning into a little toddling person, a baby no longer. She still nurses and uses diapers, but she's doing so many toddler things already. When did this all happen? I just blinked and she got so big! Here's part of a list. She walks (faster every day), kisses Maya, hugs and pats a stuffed sheep very lovingly, gives me a sassy smile when she is going to do something she knows she isn't supposed to (like suck on a dirty wet washcloth, put a bead in her mouth, etc.), misbehaves on purpose to communicate to me that she needs a diaper change, uses her first attempts at hand signs to tell me things- mostly 'all done', nods and shakes her head vigorously for yes and no, yells at and pulls her sisters' hair, insists on feeding herself (she's very impatient with being spoon-fed), drinks from a sippy cup without spilling a drop (except when she wants to make a puddle to play in), wrestles with daddy, plays by herself, tries to put clothes on herself, loves her big girl shoes, cries when daddy leaves in the morning and hugs him tight when he gets home at night, and wants to be where the action is with all the big kids. Arg, she's so cute! She makes us all laugh so many times a day.
Ok, so two- a few new things around the webble. Billy lovingly put up an About me page that I wrote a few months ago, and I added a few more people to the 'community' section- check out Khalil, entering the world of the webble! Welcome, brother, welcome!
