It's a Good Morning

Lately we've had some crazy hair days around here. The other day we woke up to this munchkin mohawk.

GOOD MORNING!

Doesn't she look like a little rocker giving the "hang loose" sign!?

The next day I found her hair like this when she woke up from her afternoon nap...

The walls in her room are still blue, yes...with an airplane painted on the wall too. We haven't gotten around to painting her room yet. This weekend we will though, right Shawn? {I think we've said that for the past 3 weekends.}

Later in the evening, Shawn hooked up his ipod and head phones and put them on Victoria.

Feelin' it...

Victoria is 14 months now. She is such a cuddly, sweet baby and I am amazed at how fast she picks up on things. It seems like she understands just about everything I say to her. Of course she always has something to say back. She says a number of words like cracker, ball-which she used to pronounce as "bah", now she has tried to add the L sound at the end but it sounds like a W, it's too cute. She trys to say Jesus, she can say clock, Seth -the name of one of her little friends, her word for movie is still baba. The list goes on. A couple of weeks ago She was looking at a wedding picture of Shawn and I and Shawn asked her "who is that?" She pointed to us in the picture as she said "mama", "dada".SO sweet! When we get ready to pray before she goes to bed, or any other time she will smile really big and fold her arms...only for like 2 seconds though, but it's a start! And occasionally she will try to say "amen" at the end of the prayer. We're still working on that one.  She can meow like the kitty...for some reason though it's a loud, harsh meow...really funny. And she'll meow back at Trixie and say "Pssst, Pssst". Trixie and Victoria are pretty hilarious together. Victoria will play with Trixie by swinging the kitty wand around, and she does tease her a bit, but Trixie gets her back by going into Victoria's room while she's taking a nap and meow really loud to wake her up...which makes me want to drop kick the cat!

Victoria still loves books and collecting the fallen leaves and pine cones on our walks. She has such a sensitive  little heart. I love her so much and I love being her "Mama".
