13 Months!

To my sweet girl :)
I didn't think it possible to have a child that was sweeter than Annabelle, but I was wrong.  You are such a darling :)  You are as sweet if not sweeter than sister, you may even be funnier than sister also!  I can not imagine having two comedians for children plus throwing in your daddy I end up with three!!! I know one thing, we have a lot of fun times and laughter at our house :)  Over Father's Day weekend this year we went to the Columbus Zoo.  It was your first trip and sister's third.  Momma has mixed feelings about the zoo, I feel guilty paying money to see animals in cages but this zoo was so awesome.  When I left I didn't feel as guilty.  You loved the Gibbons, you would laugh and laugh at them.  People would stop and just watch you and start laughing at you and tell us you were so cute.  We have gotten that a lot since December 2008 :) Daddy whistled to a gorilla and she whistled back!  She was the first gorilla born in captivity - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Colo_(gorilla).  Sister even had a monkey come to the window and hit it and run off like she was wanting to play.  I have always said she was a monkey, I guess he could tell that!  We have been living with granny for almost 2 months now.  You are loving it, granny is probably your favorite person in the world.  I don't know how well you are going to handle moving away from her when we buy a new house.  That will be awhile yet so we will see.  Your language is starting to pick up, you are doing just like your sister did. You will say a word as you are signing it.  Your favorite new sign is "all done"  You just started signing it out of the blue one day.  It is so precious!!!!!  You call daddy "dey dey"  and it is almost too cute for words.  You are such a great little girl.  Momma really couldn't have picked better children if she had designed them herself.  I look forward everyday to seeing what you will learn that day.  You are already able to use mommy and daddys phones as well as the iPad.  Such a clever clever girl :)  We all love you so much!

MOMMA!!
