What she's up to this Summer!


Getting ready to go swimming in her cute swimsuit she got for Easter


Cleaning the house is a daily activity, she vacuums and dusts (with a baby wipe) all by herself, with no prompting! I'm very impressed with her dedication! And a little jealous! I certainly don't have that kind of dedication!



She also takes very good care of her baby. She changes her diaper...

Feeds her....
I need to upload some videos because I got one of her rocking her baby too!


...and of course playing outside!

SOME of her new words:
kol-kol: pickle (probably her favorite food!)
out
sing
heehaw!
hot!
pizza (not that she'll eat it!)
feisss (fries) - she LOVES sweet potato fries
please

... I'm sure there's a ton more, it seems like there's a new one every day, but these ones are said most often!
Another new thing is taking a deep breath. Whenever she starts to cry over something silly, I tell her to take a deep breath, and we take breaths until she stops crying, and then we talk out the problem, or just hug it out after she calms down. It usually takes just one or two breaths, but what I think is so cool is that a couple of times this week, she's started getting upset and has stopped and taken a couple of deep breaths herself, ending the would be tears and moved on to a different activity or come and asked me for help. I love her! She'll never do anything wrong ;-)

Ugh....

The "ugh" isn't because of anything in my life, it's because I'm ALWAYS so far behind in blogging that I have nothing to say! So much is happened that I I've forgotten half of it, and the other half is so outdated that it doesn't make sense to post anymore! I guess that's the life with a one year old though! So...
Me and Rosalie went to Orlando for 5 days with my mom and Jake and Starleigh and the kids. We went to the Magic Kingdom (Rosalie's first visit!), and Animal Kingdom. It was SOOO hot at Magic Kingdom! But Rosalie really liked the Jungle Cruise and the Merry Go Round, but as hot as it was, I think that she got really worn out and we only stayed from about 10:00 to 2:00. Animal Kingdom has a lot more shade and so we were able to stay from about 9:30 to 4:00! Rosalie even took a nap there while we stopped for lunch!
Of the whole trip I think her very favorite part though, was the horse drawn carriage we saw walking into the Magic Kingdom! She loves horses and when she saw one UP CLOSE she was so excited and went crazy making her little horsey-trot sound! I wish I could show you pictures, but my new camera won't load onto blogger! I'll have to try and figure that out!
